Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Thé Noir 29

A chic, introspective scent that weaves dried fig, black tea, and tobacco into a quietly powerful aura. Thé Noir 29 is both refined and enigmatic-signature-worthy for those who crave complexity over crowd-pleasing sweetness.

Favourite

Our Verdict - Citrus Tea

A divisive brew, this one. Some will find its sharp, woody tea character an elevated delight, others will dismiss it as 'grandma-like' or overly sour. For those who get it, Citrus Tea is a unique, long-lasting gem.

Season and Occasion Fit

Thé Noir 29

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Autumn

Also Works:

Winter

Thé Noir 29 is anchored by woody, earthy, and dried fruit notes, making it exceptional in fall and spring when mild weather brings out both its freshness and depth. It is less suited to hot summer days due to its complexity and density, but works well on cooler evenings or mild winters.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Office Casual

This scent's rich, distinctive character and moderate boldness make it perfect for dates, creative or formal settings, and evening events, while its sophistication lets it work for the office if applied lightly. It is too moody and complex for sporty activities.

Spring Autumn Winter

Also Works:

Summer

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:

Office Casual

Also Works:

Date

Despite its strong longevity and projection, many users found this suitable for office wear due to its 'work safe' interpretation of a complex scent. The fresh green accords lend themselves to casual and even some date settings, though its sharp initial notes and beast mode performance make it less ideal for formal events or sport.
