night breeze
Cool nocturnal air
A night breeze is a gentle wind that blows after dark, often carrying cooler air than daytime winds.
The phrase evokes pleasant evening atmospheres—sitting on a porch, walking along a beach: The night breeze carried the scent of jasmine.
In coastal areas, night breezes blow from land toward sea as temperatures shift.
