Lalique Encre Noire Eau de Toilette

Product Information

The label's distinctive aesthetic along with luxurious materials and technical prowess culminates in this mysterious and powerful fragrance, housed in a sleek black bottle.

And then as the cherry on the cake: the powderiness from the orris and the benzoin, the latter of which also adds even more to the balsamic undertone, AND the earthiness of patchouli which just rounds up the whole composition perfectly. I feel the main difference between the two is that the Extreme version is fairly balsamic, with a very noticeable incense note. I waited over a year to try my sample again, and when I did, most of what I got was very faint, perfume-y synthetic coolness and musk. More powerful, richer and even more voluptuous, the woody intensity of this fragrance reveals a fascinating new side of the Encre Noire man’s personality…manly and sensual.At first I thought there’s nothing here that literally smells like ink — just inky — but I took a moment to smell some pens and I have to say, this is pen ink. Producto de alta calidad, un aroma espectacular para personas maduras, es como estar en un bosque, duración 6 -7 horas en piel, proyección media a alta. From your calendar, you choose what you get each month by dragging and dropping to curate your own journey, which you can change any time you like. If Blue de Channel is like a beautiful photo of a landscape, The Encre Noire series are like a Picasso painting - they are not meant to be pleasing for the masses and that's ok.

i wore this while rifling through a lumber pile and patching a fence the other day, and let me tell you it was the perfect choice. This is inkier, more true-to-life, and simply more pleasant than the burning-plastic ink note in the opening of Wallpaper* STEIDL’s Paper Passion, a fragrance that’s literally designed to mimic ink and paper. I find myself leaning more towards the original for the deep cypress and mysterious woodsy feeling it invokes - but if you love the original DNA but want something more toned down and wearable, A L'Extreme is the way to go. Through our longstanding contacts in the world of perfume – perfumers, bottle designers, brand creators, the fashion designers who have their names on some of the world’s bestselling scents – we have our finger on the pulse-point of everything that’s happening – and we are delighted to share it with you here. Smells like a tinctured pirate's walking plank or treasure chest for a short period before completely disappearing into the ether.It's VERY nice but somewhat overwhelms or drowns out the vetiver, which is the note that I love so much in the original. I know oh so many perfumes that cost 250 or 300 or 400 euros, and they're nothing in comparision to this. I've also discovered that layering with Creed Aventus (or one of the many clones) takes things to another level. after an hour or so, a stinky furry mammal comes out to play and secretes all over this beautiful piece of wood. Something in the drydown feels like basil to me, but it’s so incredibly faint I may well be imagining it.
