Yes, it's realy eatable scent. Coconut biscuit with sweet almond filling. Realy nice, gourmand scent. But for me it's to much eatable for wearing.

Datura noir is a truly gourmand fragrance which opens with a sweet edible smell of coconuts and almonds. Later I can smell the note of jasmine even though it is not in the pyramid of notes. And then the surprise! After like 10 minutes it smells exactly like Versace crystal noir on my skin. Very strange.

The staying power is very good.

A shape-shifter, this one. When I first tried it, it was in search of almond-prominent fragrances. I got quite a lot of creamy, sweet Amaretto-ish almonds on top, then. Today I'm trying it anew, while searching for heliotrope-centered frags. No almond in sight, and spades of creamy, lush, tropical heliotrope!
Weird.
Either way, it's a special one. Very sweet, full-bodied, somewhat sensual and creamy-soapy-sweet goodness. Couldn't wear it daily by a long stretch, but it's an interesting one to wear once in a while, in an opulent mood.
(Accidental layering report: it wears well in combination with almond/vanilla frags, L'Artisan Jour de Fête in this case)

Datura plants are amazing things, they always remind me of twisted lilies, flowers half melted in some arcane experiments, and I love their back story in myth and legend...so I had to try Datura Noir.

The top notes confused me completely, the notes seemed very disparate from each other for the first ten seconds or so, I couldn't pull out a theme at all.

It settled very quickly, and on my skin became a thin and rather elegant jasmine, with a barely detectable tuberose/lemon flower undertone. Hard to pin down. A strange thing about this perfume, on my skin it closes in the heat, subdued on my wrist. Then outside in the cold air, a gust of air would suddenly blow my way and I would catch a breath of flowers on the wind, subtle but memorable. Lovely, but for now I am not besotted. I will try again in the spring.

Wonderful daturaplants are one of my favourites in a garden, huge highly fragrant trumpet shaped flowers that will pour their strong aroma at nights. So this one was must to test. And Datura noir do smell little like real daturas, but not exactly. There's definetly some coconut and tuberose precense.

This is truly exotic scent. This one gives me instantly deja-vu of some tropical paradise at night, big leaves glossing after furious rain, crickets and frogs having their loud play and strong, heady mixed flower scent pouring over in velvety night. The moment you want to capture forever in your mind and cherish when everyday life seems little too busy.

Serge Lutens is one of my absolute favorites. I have Ambre Sultan, Louve, and Datura Noir. Love all of them. So unique. I'd buy them all if it wasn't that they are so expensive. Guess their worth the price, especially if you don't want to smell like everyone else. Datura Noir is a lovely gourmand, though in a grown up way. No candy floss here. You just can't stop smelling yourself.
