    Fresh, Tart Orange Peel and Little Else I have fallen in love with a couple of Malle Fragrances, much to my wallet's chagrin, but Noir Epices is not one of them. I mainly detect nothing but very...

    I have tried almost all of the Frederic Malle scents, and Noir Epices is one of my favorites. My biggest qualm with this scent is the exorbitant price tag! The way this scent unfolds is absolutely...

    I have noir epices as part of the first coffret assortment (10 ml). I have mixed feelings about this one. Sometimes it seems oriental, sometimes rose chypre, sometimes neither, because I associate...

    (nose: Michel Roudnitska ). Fruity/Floral/Leather. This scent is pure, extroverted joy in a bottle! A dazzling, champagne-like head of sparkling fruit... fragrant peaches, luscious...

    This is my less heady, more touchable alternative to Opium -- I've worn the YSL for many years -- one of my great loves. The Malle by Michel Roudnitska isn't an Opium dupe, NE is more rosy, dry and...

    Aw man. All i get from this is carnation/geranium...both of which I hate hate hate. Actually florals in general are just not my thing. I adore tea, incense, cinnamon, vanilla, amber, etc. so I was...

    I had been wanting to sample Noir Epices for some time as I love spicy woody oriental fragrances. Sadly I am not getting spice from this at all. My skin amps up the orange, geranium and rose and it...

    Soap! Okay, hold that thought... we'll get back to that in a moment. First sniff on my arm and I'm in love, or at least I think I am... it comes off warm and sultry, an oriental feeling without the...

    Good heavens, is my sample bad? I got no creamy spices, which I was very much looking forward to. What I did get is a note I can only describe as dog shampoo. I wish I knew what fragrance that...

    On first spraying this, I thought it was a very masculine-smelling scent. The topnotes are very abrasive and very after-shavey - I can smell a lot of clove, geranium (which never works on me) and...

    I had to write a reivew, just based on how this seems so wildly different on everyone; i've rarely read such a diverse pooling of descriptions. I'm not the hugest spice fan, (although, i do like...

    Frederic Malle’s Noir Epices is a strange fragrance. I didn’t hate it but then again, I didn’t exactly like it. In the top note, I definitely smelled geranium which I always find very spa-like and...

    I'd normally run screaming from something called "Black Spices," but so many people also used the words "rose chypre" in connection with this that I had to try it out. The opening is indeed very...

    One of my favourites from the Malle line. It goes on rather assertive and medicinal but unfolds into a bright, spicy, carnation. An oriental-chypre, if such a thing existed. Entirely devoid of...

    Very nice, very intense rosy frag. Lovely boozy beginning, with the rose starting up right away, with some citrus? Amazingly fresh considering how strong it is. It's a bit like Montale's Aoud Queen...
