Lalique Ombre Noire is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Karine Dubreuil-Sereni. Ombre Noire opens with Bergamot, Fig Leaf, and Mint, settles into a heart of Papyrus, Cinnamon, and Tobacco, and dries down to a base of Cognac, Cedar, Tonka Bean, and Myrrh. Lalique's Ombre Noire carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a divisive brew; some find it a masterful blend of boozy, woody spice with an almost magical 'maceration' effect, others are just getting a headache-inducing whiff of curry. You'll either adore its dark, mature mystery or find yourself smelling like last night's Indian takeaway. Seriously, sample first.

About

Ombre Noire kicks off with a fresh, green bite of fig leaf and mint, quickly ushering in a heart of papyrus, warm cinnamon, and dry tobacco. The dry down is where it truly shines, settling into a rich, boozy embrace of cognac, frankincense, and myrrh, smoothed out by creamy tonka bean and sturdy cedar. It’s a complex, evolving scent that promises depth and intrigue from the first spray to the distant lingering base.
