India Hicks Island Night is the absolute perfect summer fragrance to wear from day to night in Manhattan, which of course is an island.  It boasts a unique global sophistication that evokes a Moonlit Tropical Garden and an Enchanted World Of Possibility. Crabtree & Evelyn introduces India Hicks Island Night - a new fragrance developed in collaboration with creative partner, India Hicks. Inspired by her life in the Caribbean, Island Night captures the essence of twilight in the islands, a mood of barefoot elegance on an evening lit only by the stars and moon. 


‘I’ve always loved the feel of the island at night: the light of the moon as it casts its spell, the midnight blue of a sea that seems to go on forever and the sound of the waves sighing on the sand. Perhaps it’s a reminder of holidays spent on an island or the years of memories crated here. Either way, to me, it is paradise. 
When dusk falls over the island, something beautiful unfolds. Many flowers hide themselves for the evening, but others just begin to bloom, sending their fragrance – like a love letter – whispered through the air’. - INDIA HICKS 

To create India Hicks Island Night, India worked closely with Crabtree & Evelyn - from fragrance and formulation to packaging and design. She drew inspiration from her surroundings - full moon evenings, the scent of night-blooming flowers, shadows of stingrays flitting over the sand bottom, anemone shells, amethyst crystals and her grandmother’s antique mirror case. And the result is a unique fragrance, Island Night - a delicate balance of orchids, night-blooming flowers, orange blossom, green island palms and a woody musk accord that takes you to her tropical garden and an enchanted world of possibility. 


India Hicks Island Night body care is luxurious: exotic mango, evening primrose, and coconut oil are blended along with skin-softening milk proteins and crushed pearl extract to smooth the skin and leave a luminous sheen. 


India Hicks Island Night fragrance diffuser and candle - in amethyst colored glass with silver accents - are decorative statement pieces for the home that infuse the air with the scent of an island evening under the stars. 

The Island Night collection has been awarded the Royal Warrant by HRH Prince of Wales. The collection includes Eau de Toilette, Evening Fragrance Compact with Enhancer, Creamy Body Wash, Milky Bath, Rich Body Cream, Smooth Body Lotion, Scented Candle and Fragrance Diffuser. 


All India Hicks Island Night Body products are free of parabens, mineral oil, sodium lauryl and laureth sulfate, propylene glycol, and colorants. 


EAU DE TOILETTE 3.4 FL OZ/$55.00 
“The black bottle - full moon evenings when the moon comes up over the ocean and you can sit at midnight and read a paperback on the beach, and your shadow is as dark as it is at midday. 

‘Shagreen’ box – because when you cross the bay at night you see the shadows of stingrays flitting over the sand bottom.” 
This dramatic black decanter bottle in a ‘shagreen’ box holds the essence of a moonlit evening in the islands - captured in a floral heart of purple and white orchids, night-blooming jasmine, green island palms and orange blossom nectar, entwined with a woody musk accord.
