Jean Marc Paris Femme Noir is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021. Femme Noir opens with Citrus and Strawberry, settles into a heart of Patchouli, Rose, and Orchid, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Vetiver, and Vanilla. Jean Marc Paris's Femme Noir carries a Favourite verdict, a sweet-led wear.

A divisive yet beloved 'fruitchouli' that punches well above its weight, Femme Noir delivers an intoxicating blend of fruit, florals, and a surprisingly smooth patchouli hit. It's a cheap thrill, but a thrill nonetheless.

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.

With moderate longevity and sillage, it's suitable for most casual settings and can work for the office if applied lightly. Its seductive blend also makes it an excellent choice for dates, though it might be a bit too playful for very formal events or too heavy for sport.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Femme Noir opens with a burst of sweet, juicy strawberry and zesty citrus, immediately setting a playful, bright tone. As it settles, a rich floral heart emerges, dominated by a prominent rose and the intriguing depth of orchid, balanced by a soft, earthy patchouli that steers it away from being overtly youthful. The base lingers with a warm, creamy vanilla, smooth sandalwood, and a touch of vetiver, adding a sophisticated grounding to the sweetness.
