Genny Noir is a powerhouse chypre, dividing opinions with its intense, earthy opening but rewarding the patient with a sophisticated, long-lasting drydown. Definitely not for the faint of heart, or nose.

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.

Date

Its strong sillage and long-lasting nature mean it's too potent for most office environments, but it shines in formal settings or on a date where its intense character can be appreciated. Reviewers note its "furyo but fresh" nature and a "perfume tattoo" effect.

About

Genny Noir opens with a bold, almost brutalist, blast of petitgrain and cardamom, quickly giving way to an intoxicating heart of rose, jasmine, and iris. This floral bouquet is grounded by a deep, earthy base where oakmoss and patchouli reign supreme, softened by the resinous warmth of labdanum and ambergris, with a hint of clean musk. It's a complex, ever-evolving scent that demands attention.
