Alexandre.J Black Beetle is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022. Black Beetle opens with Bergamot, Frankincense, and Raspberry, settles into a heart of Pimiento and Patchouli, and dries down to a base of Woody and Musk. Alexandre.J's Black Beetle carries an Acquired verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect a rich, dark patchouli with smoky frankincense and a surprising sprinkle of fruit. It's unique, but definitely divides opinion - so sample before you splurge.

About

Opens with an intense burst of dark raspberry tempered by bright bergamot and a pronounced, smoky frankincense. As it settles, the heart reveals a raw, earthy patchouli warmed by the fiery kick of pimiento. The dry down is a sophisticated blend of woody notes and a deep, sensual musk, clinging to the skin for hours with an almost resinous warmth.
