Byredo Rose Noir is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2008, created by Jérôme Epinette. Rose Noir opens with Red Fruits, Grapefruit, Freesia, and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Violet, and Lily of the Valley, and dries down to a base of Musk, Patchouli, Oakmoss, and Labdanum. Byredo's Rose Noir carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

Rose Noir is a divisive one. There's a brilliant, moody rose and moss core for some, while for others, it's a sour, fleeting mess. Not a safe blind buy, so sample before committing - your chemistry may vary wildly.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Rose Noir unfurls with a tart burst of red berries and grapefruit, quickly giving way to a rich, velvety rose heart. This isn't a delicate bloom; it's a dark, earthy rose, deepened by a prominent mossy base and entwined with patchouli. Hints of musk and an almost boozy labdanum add a sensual, lingering depth to its complex character.
