Black Noir

by Pierre Montale

Mancera Black Noir is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Pierre Montale. The fragrance opens with Black Leather and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Tiare Flower, Patchouli, Oud, and Tobacco, and dries down to a base of Vetiver, Ambergris, Tonka Bean, and Vanilla.

Our verdict on Black Noir: Acquired

Divisive yet captivating, Black Noir is Mancera's attempt at a softer leather-vanilla for the masses. Some will adore its smooth, sweet embrace; others will find it messy and lacking the darker notes promised by its name.

About

Black Noir opens with a sweet, almost bubblegum-like rush of vanilla and a curious, creamy leather that hints at something dark without committing. Pink pepper adds a touch of spice before soft tiare flower blossoms, lending a delicate, almost coconut lotion quality. The scent mellows into a plush base of dry vanilla and tonka, with subtle whispers of tobacco and a tamed oud, creating a sweet, enveloping aura that leans into powdery softness.
