Trudon Mortel Noir is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Yann Vasnier. Mortel Noir opens with Pepper, settles into a heart of Frankincense, and dries down to a base of Labdanum. Trudon's Mortel Noir carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.

This is Trudon's churchy incense, dialled up. It's a proper grown-up scent for those who like their fragrances dark, dry, and mysterious. While some find it a bit too much, for incense lovers, it's an absolute must-try that stands out from the crowd.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its potent, long-lasting incense and spice profile makes it too intense for an office setting but perfect for formal events or evening wear. The deep, dark character isn't suited for casual or sport occasions.

About

Mortel Noir unleashes a sharp, almost piercing black pepper right from the off, setting a solemn, spiritual tone. This quickly gives way to a monumental frankincense, smoky and deep, conjuring images of ancient cathedrals. A warm, resinous labdanum anchors the scent, lending a velvety richness that lingers on the skin.
