Drakkar Noir (1982)
by Guy Laroche

yes. the amazing scent cant be faulted in my opinion as it is strong and if used correctly just a great scent. i cant explain whats in it yet get hints of strawberry and just a lovely smell throughout. sillage great and only requires a few sprays for good effect. try this if you haven't, because it is a classic.

This is a true classic men's cologne. It is not for children. It is an elegant man's cologne. It is masculine, frankly I don't seek out to smell like a woman, but masculine is a seductive way. It is elegant, refined, and develops into a sohisticated scent - this one that has been on the cologne tray of urbane men around the world since its introduction. The men who find fault with the classic fragrances better stick to the drug store aftershave since they obviously do not understand quality.

This scent is not bad, but something synthetic here, not mineral, not natural.
Is a fresh experience with some bad component inside. Reminds me a little bit of Kouros, I m not sure....
I will give it a neutral because I m with good humou today.....Oldfashioned and something fresh as well. I dont know what to say, but something sure: is not for me.

Strikes me as rather loud, harsh and synthetic. Nothing I would want to wear or smell.

Alright, just took my Noir and had some on my wrist since it was within reach, so im gonig to give as prompt and str8 off the senses take. Ok Starting , its sweet abit sour. but certainly more sweet, a little creamy after a while. The initial note is defnitely similar to the ranks of Sauvage, tho not as refined, but defnitely trying a go at the citrus, Alot of sharpness drys down quite fast but sweetness stay. Its been 15-20min and ive noticed its still sweet but almost more like incense or scented wood kind of sweet. It would pass as dry or crisp. I think it stops at sweet scented wood. Not sure about herbs but may the sweetness came from something i must have missed out on. but yep this was a real time, oh and now it actually feels powdery like the D&G light Blue, tho i prefer this one so much more. light blue tho not a lousy scent, doesnt apeal to me. Its a cheap version of Sauvage tho in my opnion. The Sauvage is just more lively and lasting thanks to the zesty natural citrus scent, very raw. At this price, one should be satisfied with it. Its the no lovers or haters type of classic

Definitely a classic and it still holds up among today's modern scents. This is the first fragrance I ever owned and I still love to wear it occasionally. It is immensely popular with women and my girlfriend still prefers it over my other scents. To hate this just because of its overuse is denying its quality as a fragrance. It smells great and can be worn for any occasion.
