Louis Vuitton Ombre Nomade Travel Spray – 4 x 7.5ml Oud Eau de Parfum

Ombre Nomade is the oud that made the Louis Vuitton fragrance line serious, and the travel case is the sensible way to carry it. Four sealed 7.5ml sprays sit inside a leather-trimmed case, you use one at a time, and the whole thing fits the cabin liquid rules. It is also the least painful way to try an expensive fragrance properly.

Why you will love this travel spray

The travel case is a better object than it needs to be. The outer shell is leather-trimmed and weighted, the sprays click in and out without fuss, and because you only ever open one at a time the remaining three stay perfectly sealed. Buy the case once, buy refills after that, and you have a fragrance that travels properly.

• The full Ombre Nomade, built on genuine oud wood with raspberry and benzoin
• Ten hours and more on skin, exactly as the full bottle performs
• Four 7.5ml sprays, 30ml in total, in a refillable leather-trimmed case
• Refills are sold separately, so the case is bought once and kept
• Under the 100ml cabin limit, so it travels in hand luggage
• Each spray lasts roughly a week of normal use
• The same juice as the full bottle, not a lighter version

The scent

Raspberry across the opening, gone in minutes, and then the oud: dark, resinous, faintly leathery, carrying the dry smoke that anyone raised around bakhoor recognises immediately. Benzoin rounds the base into something balsamic. Warm rather than sharp at the finish.

Who it is for

Anyone who travels and does not want to leave a 200ml bottle at security, and anyone who wants to live with Ombre Nomade for a few weeks before committing to a full bottle. It also works as a gift, because the case looks like an object rather than a sample.

How to use it

Twist the case open and pull out one spray at a time; the other three stay sealed until you need them. Two sprays on the pulse points is the right dose. When a spray is empty, slide it out and drop in a refill rather than replacing the case.
