Nocturne

About

Nocturne is a gothic boutique and independent bookstore in Salem built as an immersive shop celebrating the beauty of the night. Its dark, romantic setting holds curated books, a gothic library, handcrafted jewelry, candles, alluring artisan perfumes and unique gifts, with a strong emphasis on work by independent artists. The perfume selection leans toward niche fragrances and gothic scents, part of what the shop calls a dark romantic dreamscape.

Beauty products round out the shelves, including cosmetics and skincare from Rituel de Fille such as lipsticks, lip oils, lip sheers, eye glosses, lashes, a hydrating skin mist and face illuminators. Accessories such as a leopard chatelaine purse add to the gift options. Beyond shopping, the store hosts events at Nocturne and at Hill House Parlour, giving customers a reason to visit for more than a purchase.
