One midsummer's night each year, an unusual desert flower blooms as night falls and closes forever with the first rays of the morning sun. Few see it, but those who do are entranced by the rare fragrance of the exquisite, short-lived bloom. The night blooming cereus is the desert flower from which Cereus takes its name, and like the flower, it seeks to produce something extraordinary and rare…and lucky for us, it doesn’t come just one night a year. Every perfume in the Cereus men’s line aims for modern sophistication and flare with a lean toward natural scents built on unexpected notes. With notes like quince, licorice bark, papyrus, spider orchid, anise and even the lime and gin accord of a gimlet, each one of Cereus’ masterful blends are fresh, unique and comfortable with blending unusual notes in traditional and unpretentious ways. Each perfume is housed in a thick glass bottle, complimented with a natural wooden top.
