Description
The original Angel from 1992 rewrote the rules of perfumery with its radical gourmand patchouli formula. Nova, launched in 2020, carries the Angel heritage into new territory: lighter, brighter, and more accessible while retaining the brand's signature cosmic ambition.
Raspberry and lychee open with a vivid, juicy freshness entirely distinct from Angel's classic caramel-chocolate opening. The contrast is immediate and refreshing. The heart centres on Syrian rose — specifically the deep-crimson Kazanlak variety — supported by akigalawood, a biotechnology-derived ingredient from the Aquilaria tree that mimics oud without heaviness.
Benzoin and warm amber close the composition in a soft, resinous whisper. Longevity is eight to ten hours; sillage is prominent in the first hour, then settles to a moderate skin scent. For wholesale perfume buyers, Angel Nova covers both the loyal Angel fan base and new younger customers drawn to its accessible freshness.
