Geisha Noire by Aroma M is a Oriental fragrance for women. Geisha Noire was launched in 2007. The nose behind this fragrance is Maria McElroy. The fragrance features sandalwood, tonka bean, black amber and vanilla.
Strong, heady and sexy. Does not take much and lasts forever. It's creamy, powdery, and a little naughty.
I basically smell sandalwood in this one with just a little bit of amber. As it dries down the sandalwood overpowers all other notes. It's oriental, it's velvety and creamy, it has sillage and lasting power, but in the end after 2-3 hours, it basically smells like those incense sticks that are sold by Indian vendors. Not what I'm looking for.
This had a very, VERY strong clove smell to my nose, even though cloves are not listed. Maybe tonka bean smells like this? Whatever, it made it impossible for me to like.
shalimar with more spice, good perfume.. lasting and lasting..
This evening I tried my sample of Geisha Noire EdP. This is an absolutely gorgeous, extraordinarily powdery fragrance full of vanilla, tonka, sandalwood, and something a little bit animalic, especially in the beginning. I could swear I smelled a whiff of castoreum in there. It’s strong without being overpowering. It’s pretty, refined and ladylike on the outside and primitive and sexy inside the silk kimono. There’s lots of sillage, but I still can’t stop smelling my wrists. I love it! In fact, I was so taken with it that I sent off for a sample set of all 9 of the Aroma M fragrance oils so that I can have a Geisha sampling fest.
Geisha Noire(Perfume Oil) is indeed really interesting and intoxicating as well as really comfy.
It stars really silky creamy in a vanilla none-sugary ways. So comfy that reminds me of Chai Tea Latte. A little bit cinnamon-like woodsy spicy hint dances around. The start reminds me of a subtal version of Shalimar. It's more aromatherapitic than purely elegant.
Then it goes woodier, like some dry tree branches. The nice creamy vanilla and sweet spicy hint is still there. Seems it's a kind of perfume oil that's confident on its own. Even though it's spicy,I just can't stop inhaling, it has some soothing, calming values to me.
The dry down smells heavenly. It's sexy, soft and really close to the skin. It's like Shalimar EDT on the 'Me to You' blue-nosed grey teddy bear(well, yes I was crazily in love with Shalimar and I did put some Shalimar on my teddy bear :-)*shy* ). It makes me feeling calm and experiencing a nostalgia.
Also I think it's a unisex perfume. Really worth trying!
I absolutely adore this! I have the roll on oil and a little does go a long way. I always get compliments when I wear it and one man said it reminded him of Shalimar.
The EDP of Geish Noir is for me what you want to find in an oriental fragrance. Dark, powerful and rich without being too sweet (you may have gathered that I do not like sweet fragrances). Sometimes it reminds me of Shalimar but then again it is not as sweet and the sandalwood comes out more. Also, I do like the fact that Maria Mcelroy used Tonka more than vanilla... The ideal winter fragrance. In the summer it is too heavy for me.
Perfume oils are very interesting indeed. A little drop goes a long way, Geisha Noire is a powerful, strong and oh so heavy oil. And as Nuppu wrote, lastingpower is amazing... Put it on in the morning and you smell the best at evening! Wich can cause some problems, I do prefer longlasting perfumes/scents but this is so longlasting it kind of comes around and bite me in my neck. Usually you put on a perfume for a party right before going from home, well that approach is pointless with Geisha Noire. You will smell amazing, but not until next morning! :)
It is smoky, ambery, some creamy vanilla and also herbal notes, the drydown is the most beautiful part and worth waiting for, even tough I would prefer a little shorter duration.
I guess a small bottle of it would last for ages and then your kids can have it! :)
First, Geisha Noire is strong, really strong and it must be used sparingly. But when you use it only by tiny, little drop, it's sensual, warm and comfortable. Rich, dark and woody, suitable on colder months, no way in h*ll on hot weather.
Lastingpower is suberb, over 20 hours and for my taste GN is at it's best after say, ten hours of wear, when it's stays more close to the skin and is like your own glowing fireplace, smoky and more softer with a hint of vanilla.
Reminds me little of Agent Provokateur Strip, and it's dark, sexy smokynes.
