Al Haramain Perfumes Detour Noir Intense is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024. Detour Noir Intense opens with Bergamot, Heliotrope, Pink Pepper, and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Lavender, Geranium, and Almond, and dries down to a base of Amber, Sandalwood, Oud, and Guaiac Wood. Al Haramain Perfumes's Detour Noir Intense carries an Acquired verdict, an almond-led wear.

Divisive and not a safe blind buy, Detour Noir Intense demands patience and an appreciation for its unique, intense character. Some will love its creamy, woody vanilla, while others are put off by a 'dirty ashtray' opening. Test before you invest, and let it macerate.

About

An intense and complex opening of spicy cardamom and warm pink pepper gives way to creamy, powdery almond and rich vanilla. Touches of delicate lavender and jasmine soften the heart, while a deep, resinous base of oud, amber, and various woods anchors the fragrance, creating a sophisticated and enveloping sweetness that lingers.
