Inspired by the dream of chasing something just out of reach — a shimmer, a smile, a sunbeam. This scent glows with golden vanilla, the sweet’n’sour sparkle of tamarind, and the dusty warmth of an antique wooden trunk.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
Late-afternoon light falls across an old wooden chest as a conversation becomes quieter and more personal. Tamarind gives the vanilla a tart flicker, while smoky, leathery shading keeps the sweetness from feeling confectionery. The mood is warm and intimate, with a little friction beneath the softness.
How to wear
A natural choice for mild to cool weather, when vanilla and dusty woods can lend warmth without competing with heat. Start with one or two sprays on skin beneath clothing for a more intimate effect; an exposed wrist lets the tart tamarind opening register more clearly. Apply lightly in warmer conditions.
Who it’s for
For those who enjoy vanilla with tension rather than straightforward dessert sweetness. Its tamarind tang, smoky shading and weathered-wood character suit tastes that move between gourmands, woods and leather, with an appetite for softer, less literal interpretations.

The nose
Bertrand Duchaufour is known for textured compositions that balance woods, incense, spices and unexpected contrasts. His work includes L’Artisan Parfumeur’s Timbuktu and Dzongkha, fragrances admired for their atmospheric depth. For Chasing Light 19.10, he interprets NEYDO’s dream narrative through tamarind, orchid and a vanilla-centred base.
Neydo’s story
NEYDO treats dreams as creative briefs, asking perfumers to translate fleeting sensations and unconscious imagery into wearable fragrances. Its emphasis is on preserving an emotional impression rather than following trends, and the house invites people to contribute their own scent-related dreams.
Chasing Light 19.10’s concept
The fragrance takes its inspiration from a dream attributed by NEYDO to Peter: a sunlit room, a girl glimpsed in a mirror, falling orchids and shifting sand. The pursuit ends in an embrace of sunlight, with vanilla lingering upon awakening. This imagined sequence gives the composition its theme of warmth that remains just beyond reach.
Extra info
The official note pyramid places orchid between a bergamot-and-tamarind opening and a base of ambergris, vanilla and musk. Despite its date-like appearance, the meaning of the suffix “19.10” has not been publicly explained by the brand.
