For the event of opening of renovated main boutique La Maison Guerlain (The House of Guerlain) at 68 Avenue des Champs-Elysées, Paris, Guerlain launched exclusive line of three perfumes – L 'Art et la Matière (The Art and (raw) Material, a pun after the French expression L'Art et la Manière – the art and manners). Three famous noses were invited to work on the perfumes using the highest quality materials. The perfumes were launched in 2005.

Angélique Noire is the third fragrance of the series, created by Daniela Andrièr. It was an attempt to reproduce the famous compositions of the house. Sweet and strong beginning with spices and piquant freshness of bergamot is mixing with milky bitterness of almond and vanilla notes. Unusual harmony of the fresh bergamot and sweet vanilla is a trademark of classical compositions of Guerlain. Spicy harshness of the beginning is contrasting creamy and sweet base which includes mildly spicy and sugary notes of angelica. The nose behind this fragrance is Daniela Roche-Andrier.

This perfume is amazingly different and complex. It changes on my skin through out the day and lasts for hours.

Here is my problem!! I am almost out and can not find it in the United States. It was a gift from my sister when she went to Paris. Does anyone know how to get it without a European trip?

I've been told by the shop assistant,that Angelique Noire is their best-selling perfume from the L'art et la Matiere line.
One spritz on my wrist and I was sold too!
Angelique Noire truly does justice to it's name.
Starts off like a breathe of fresh air and angelic purity and then,turns into dark,sweet,dry,woody scent with vanillic-chocolatey accords,that lingers and lingers for hours.
This scent is a real chameleon and I've never experienced any other fragrance "behaving" quite this way.
It is definitely one of the lovliest and most interesting scents,I've ever owned.
You must try it for yourself!
Classified as unisex,I think, this fragrance leans more towards women.
Despite it's name Angelique,this fragrance is for NO ANGELS!

I tested it for the first time today and it knocked my socks off. Absolutely gorgeous! I got a creamy, delicious bouquet that dried into a heavenly piece of dark chocolate. Judging by other reviews, I wonder if I mistook this for something else (?)

Give this fragrance a second (or third) chance! It is worth it. The first whiff brings a blast of angelica flower--very strong. Admittedly, this is not the best part of the composition. Wait 20 minutes and you will discover a delicious vanilla, delicately mixed with floral notes that lasts and lasts. Many times I have watched others spray, whiff, jump back and declare, "I don't like this!" And then come back an hour later and say that this is just wonderful, what is it called? In my opinion, one of only 2 in the L 'Art et la Matière collection worth buying for a woman, the other being Cruel Gardenia.

Angelique noire was another surprise for me. Why? On my skin it is a twin sister of Guerlain's Shalimar Legere. These fragrances have this bittersweet grapefruit-vanilla scent combination, which makes these both fragrances refreshing and dark at the same time.
Lovely fragrance with a great staying power. A must try for all Guerlain's Shalimar Legere lovers!

Very strong and dried down with an inexplicable bug spray feeling. Not a good one for me.

Did I get a bad sample? The name and description were so promising and Guerlain is--Guerlain. What's not to like? There are so many wonderful scents out there using vanilla (which, admittedly, I prefer in subtle doses), that this one seems bland by comparison. I don't get any complexity here. AN smells to me like vanilla extract, and a very sweet vanilla extract to boot. I have to be careful not to leave it in the kitchen or I might bake cookies with it by mistake. If you love vanilla, give it a try.

I bought it on a trip to San Francisco. It's exclusive to Neiman Marcus in SF, then the Guerlain Boutique in Paris and Moscow, that's it.
It's too strong for me and I'd like to sell it. Just used a bit. Still full.
Anybody interested?

i like this fragrance most of other perfumes of the line. Mysterious and dark, musky and woody, with beautiful angelique note, which is musky in this composition and almost without aromatic nuances.

For instance, in the Frederic Malle collection, Angelique is herbaceous and aromatic.

There is a pretty woody powder (Shalimar) note in the end, but not so intensive.
