Al Haramain Détour Noir is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021. The fragrance opens with Lavender, Violet, Jasmine, and Apple, settles into a heart of Patchouli, Vanilla, Bergamot, and Mandarin, and dries down to a base of Pepper, Geranium, Sandalwood, and Guaiac Wood.

Our verdict on Détour Noir: Acquired

This "clone" is highly divisive. Some see a cheap ticket to luxury, others a synthetic nightmare. You'll either get an amazing dupe, or a headache-inducing mess. Don't expect the quality of the original, but for the price, it might just surprise you.

Also Works:
Formal

Its moderate projection and warm, inviting accords make it suitable for dates and casual outings, though the initial synthetic blast noted by some may deter from formal occasions. While many find it versatile for day-to-day, a powerful vanilla-heavy scent might be too much for smaller office environments.

About

Détour Noir opens with a burst of crisp apple and aromatic lavender, quickly ushering in a warm, spicy heart of vanilla and patchouli with hints of bright mandarin. The journey settles into a rich, woody base of sandalwood, guaiac wood, and a peppery, cardamom-infused warmth. It's a comforting yet sophisticated blend that leans into a cozy 'apple pie' vibe in the drydown, with a subtle powdery finish.
