Initially I hated this cologne and I did not know how could anyone appreciate it. I perceived it as smoky and nothing else( it was released in autumn 2007 in Romania). Anyway, after testing it in the spring-summer season, I changed by opinion: it is woody-smoky, even bitter( because of the sea algae extract maybe)-a little salty too- goes extremely well in hot seasons. It is very masculine, in such a way a woman cannot wear it. It is artistic, but still not my genre of cologne.Don't judge this cologne by the fact that it is sold by Avon, all other Lacroix fragrances respect the same trend and feel.

Aquatic vetiver with some faint spice notes. Pleasant, inoffensive and nothing we haven't seen before. As Desmondorama said, a good office fragrance, but it isn't going to knock my socks off. You'll smell nice, gents, but you won't have us ladies following you down the block.Of course sometimes just a pleasant scent is all that's required.

Avon can't have good scents.... cose it don't have a natural raw materials, only sinthetic. The quality of the scents isn't good, they don't creates an emotion when you smell them and of course don't last long.
About the fragrance can say that it is to simple for Lacroix. Again..... don't generate an emotion, it's empty.

I like this fragrance, but would consider it more of a casual/office/ravel perfume.

As a parfumisto, I'd not classify it as anything more than a masculine scent 'for the boys' of the girls who buy Avon products for their men.

It certainly has an appeal, but perhaps not for the die-hards in the perfume world.

Give it a try if you want a light, safe fragrance that will not cause too much controversy.

I decided to try this one, becouse Christian Lacroix craeted few really good fragrances, and I like this bottle and... only bottle.

The scent is BORING, like chip cologne for men
First I smell only wood with charecteristic for Avon unidentifiable flower note, then I don't smell anything because it disappear.

Nothing special, I don't recomend it.

There is nothing NOIR about it.
is not a bad sent at all.... but it doesn't give what it promises.

There is a fresh and bit oily opening..i would say green/orange insted of noir. the drydown remindes me of kenzo pour homme, maybe because of the cedar that satys forever on my skin. It is waterd somehow... i dont smel a concentration of the woody oils that are mentiond at its basenotes.
It is not a bad scent, but i wouldn't say great either.
