Frédéric Malle Noir Épices
Amber spicy, warm spicy, woody, rose, patchouli.
Key Fragrance Notes:
- Top: Orange, Geranium
- Heart: Clove, Nutmeg, Cinnamon, Pepper
- Base: Patchouli, Sandalwood
Noir Épices opens with orange and geranium before clove, nutmeg, cinnamon and pepper form a dense, warming spice core. Patchouli and sandalwood give the base a dark woody weight, creating a composition that feels layered, dry and richly textured rather than sweet.
Michel Roudnitska composed Noir Épices around the contrast between luminous citrus-floral notes and a deep structure of spices and woods.
