Antiqued gold feathers, a symbol of the fashion house, decorate the crown of the bottle, and the feathers also appear embossed on the gold-edged black box.

Alexander McQueen Creative Director Sarah Burton commented: “I wanted this fragrance to come from night flowers, the kind that exude an eternal freshness once the day is gone. Here at McQueen, we are all about discoveries and the eternal blossom; originality in an atmosphere of tradition, craft and daring.”
