Pros

  • I'm a vetiver queen as well. I go through so much Encre Noire you'd think I was drinking it.
  • Encre noire- smells like walking through a dark, foggy, autumn, rainy forest and produces a vampiric atmosphere to my nose. Very unique. Dry, woody, bitter, and masculine.
  • Parent context: Either Encre Noire or the Laextreme version, it’s $50 Aud here, I’d recommend it with my life, but no they aren’t really vanilla. Reply: Those r them, they are my go to cheap winter fragrances as they last forever and sme...
  • Either Encre Noire or the Laextreme version, it’s $50 Aud here, I’d recommend it with my life.
  • Encre Noire would be $200 if it was made by Xerjoff instead of Lalique. In fact, all Lalique fragrances punch well above their price point.

Cons

  • I *loved* my Encre Noire blind buy... For like two weeks. Then my nose turned on it and the drydown started smelling like towel mildew to me. ... I'll still wear it from time to time if I'm craving rainy vetiver, but what I learned last...

My fave is FM Vetiver Extraordinaire, though nothing can beat Encre Noire for the price.

Encre Noire - Vetiver. Specifically the dark, early variety of vetiver.

the Original Encre Noire is cold, minimal, dry vetiver. so it has a quiet, mysterious vibe.

I *loved* my Encre Noire blind buy... For like two weeks. Then my nose turned on it and the drydown started smelling like towel mildew to me. ... I'll still wear it from time to time if I'm craving rainy vetiver, but what I learned last night is I've basically got to plan to layer other greens on it at the drydown stage until I wash it off.
