This Luxe French Perfume Brand Just Created The Unexpected Nighttime Scent You’ve Been Searching For

The recipe for a great night out calls for a few things: A sexy, slinky outfit, striking accessories that make a statement, smoldering smokey eyes or luscious painted lips, and of course, a sultry fragrance to set the mood. In comparison to the bright and cheery scent you may spritz in the morning ahead of your day, the perfume you pick for an evening out should tap into a different kind of energy — still impactful and ready for adventure, but in an edgier, more mysterious way. That's exactly the idea behind Kilian’s new After Sunset Fragrance, a cocktail of fresh, energizing, and very unexpected aromas that are fit for after-hours.

When French perfume brand Kilian released its My Kind of Love fragrance collection a year ago, the goal was to give each and every person the perfect scent for the romantic moments in their life. All four of the unique fragrances, Princess, Boys, Adults, and Kissing, focus on a specific note that offers an unexpected perspective on love — and now there's a fifth fresh scent joining the line. If your ideal date is a daring adventure that kicks off as the sun sets, the latest My Kind of Love drop is your kind of fragrance.

Kilian's new perfume After Sunset, now available at Sephora for $135 (or $30 in rollerball form), joins the My Kind of Love collection as your after-hours companion. The juicy, bold, and energizing French-made fragrance conjures up the kind of excitement that arises as the sun sets at the horizon — when you're eagerly awaiting whatever (or whoever) is coming your way as night falls. It's the fragrance you reach for when you're ready to have some fun.

Spritz After Sunset onto skin and the fruit-filled cocktail begins to unfold with exhilarating notes of sweet blackcurrant syrup cut with freshly clipped herbs before the zingy start melts into a delicious, unexpected lychee heart. At the fragrance's base, intoxicating musk, patchouli, and romantic rose round out the modern bouquet for a gently rousing finish. Each note ignites anticipation and gets you in the mood for that moment when a day of working hard finally turns to a night of playing harder — it'll encourage you to get out of your comfort zone and let the night take you away.
