By Kilian Can't Stop Loving You is a part of the Narcotics family. Launched in 2023, created by Alberto Morillas, it has notes of orange blossom, Paradisone, jasmine, honey, olibanum, Madagascar vanilla and oakmoss.
From the brand - "at the centerpiece, Orange Blossom, a symbol of eternal love. Alongside with Paradisone, an ethereal jasmine compound suggests pure paradise. Its heart is incredibly suave, featuring Honey absolute from Provence for a delicious French touch. Vanilla absolute from Madagascar adds a doubly gourmand incitement to pleasure, while notes of Oak Moss bring an earthy intensity. Incense extract from Somalia lends sensuality, volume and endless mystery. Both luminous and somber, Can’t stop loving You is a narcotic floral fragrance that puts peace in danger."
Kilian Hennessy launched By Kilian in 2007. Yup, the Cognac Hennessy, grandson to the founder of Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton Group, he followed his interest in scent, writing his thesis on the semantics of odors. After spending time with leading perfumers, he launched By Kilian with the Collection L'oeuvre Noire (Black Masterpiece) series. There are now 10 fragrances in that series. The over-the-top marketing copy drew a lot of criticism in the early part of his launch, but the gorgeous packaging - black lacquer boxes and black bottles - started to win us over, as did the artistry of the fragrances. Collection Arabian Nights was launched in 2009, Asian Tales in 2012, and In the Garden of Good & Evil will launch fall 2012.
Fragrantica - "Stunning on another level. If you’re a fan of Kilian white florals, especially Sweet Redemption, Love Dont Be Shy, Beyond Love, and Do It For Love, you’ll absolutely love this."
Fragrantica - "This is beautifull, elegant, modern, not too sweet, just perfection! Love love love it!!"
Fragrantica - "I am a big fan of Sweet Redemption, but it's a bit heavy for day time wear. This one has got the same amber and orange blossom, but without the heaviness. I clearly get the honey, too and the whole mixture is just... yum! I hate overly sweet scents, but I love honey and vanilla and somehow it is not too sweet at all. It is a warm scent, but it also has touches of freshness. I can't clearly detect the vanilla in this one on its own, and I suspect it just blends in well, lending a touch of sweetness and spice. The oakmoss is also noticable, and grounds the scent for me, as well as lending that touch of freshness."
