Tuxedo’s: off course we love a black tuxedo but we are also very keen on this velvet one. Made by Oger, the super slim waistcoat is from Dries van Noten.The Nicolicious lesson is step outside the comfort zone and choose for a savannah coloured one.

Nicolicious on fragrances: we love to layer our clothes, and with the fragrances of Molecule 01 is this also possible ,it is the first of its kind to pay homage to just one of these hidden delights—the not so sexy sounding Iso E Super. You know it as a sweet sandalwood/cedar-like smell…a base note prevalent in many legendary perfumes, and it finally gets to shine all on its own. The velvety woody note is highly sensitive to body chemistry and twists and turns as it evolves, enticing the wearer with an almost pheromone-like fascination. The science of scent is finally on display and is sure to delight those woody fragrance aficionados who love to venture forth and discover something devastatingly unique. There’s nothing like it in the world.

BMW Z4: we at the Nicolicious headquarters were curious after the driving qualities of this specatcular model. With a 308 hp there was so much power, it makes driving so easy. It is a very easy car to drive, the interior is very cosy and the seats are one the most comfortable where we ever sat in, also easy to adjust. The huge bonnet makes the BMW look like a classic sport car, we don’t want to discuss the practicality of this car. But look and feel are super! One minus – why doesn’t it have a linen cabriolet roof?

Decorating: with stuffed animals can be tricky and turn quickly in to an old museum atmosphere; to avoid that combine with sharp lines and a colour such as black, which makes the objects stands out.

Nicolicious on goulash soup. This warm soup was presented to us in a small restaurant in Düsseldorf, i personally think the idea is genial. Simply dig a hole with a spoon in the bread and fill it with soup, very original and no dishes to wash!
