Decanted Sample of Encre Noire A L'Extreme by Lalique

This fragrance is near perfect. It’s a mixture of sharp citruses, balsams, sweet ambers, and damp woodiness. This smells like rolling down the window in the Midwest and smelling the fields. It’s a perfect rainy day fragrance. This will not be for everyone at all. Some people will smell this and think it’s unnerving how much this smells like shrubbery and earth and citrus. It’s unusual, but totally lovable.

vetiver and woods heavy, i loved it

Very heavy vetiver scent with resin and incense making it even more intense and dark. A quality scent but a very difficult one to wear. Maybe even more so than the original Encre Noir.

Better than original but it just doesnt work for me.
