Noirè Absolu

I just opened Noire Absolu and went straight to skin. No shelf time, no maceration grace period. The opening leans fruity, led by a sweet raspberry with a smooth, slightly zesty bergamot that keeps it from going syrupy, while sage helps anchor it, so it doesn’t drift into juvenile "TikTok Boy" territory. It’s not an immediate room-commander, but it feels intentional, like it’s building rather than shouting. As it settles, cedar and vetiver tighten the structure and the leather comes through clean and suede-like, not smoky biker, not synthetic, and definitely no “BO hiding in the basement.” It’s polished, masculine, and controlled. Compared to the OG, it’s easily 90–95% there. Not a perfect 1:1 at first spray. This may even open a touch sweeter, but unless you’re smelling them side by side, most people wouldn’t know the difference. With some maceration, I wouldn’t be surprised if it closes that final gap. For me, this is easily a day and night wear because I don’t split my personality by time of day or season like some of the uninitiated. That said, it would shine as a playful, confident date scent for someone who wants sweetness without softness. No harsh ambroxan spikes, no synthetic edges, just fruit easing into suede leather over a woody-amber backbone. Arabiyat Prestige has been successful once again. I wouldn't expect less from them. It smells like a man who knows how to man and still knows how to have a little fun.

I bought it for around 22 British pound. For that money it's fire!! I recommend it if you like sweet raspberry and nice leather fragrance. Edit: I had it know for couple of weeks now and I just can tell OMG it's become more beautiful raspberry and balanced with the bergamot. Smells incredibly good!! Highly highly recommend it!

Sin ser un especialista o dedicado en el tema de olores, puedo decir que me parecio bastante agradable. Es un aroma adictivo, tenia cierto temor a que fuese muy oscura o fuerte el tema de cuero pero la combinación esta muy buena y suave. Contento con la compra 👌🏻

During shopping for some new perfumes, I tested about 20+ fragrances and was going nose blind, but smelled this right as I sprayed! Strong, smooth, gentleman like and long lasting. Easy blind buy

Gas right out the gate. No maceration needed

Very good inspired by fragrance of : Azzaro Forever Wanted Elixir. Opening is leathery, saffron with a sweet candied raspberry note. Dries down to a : leather, fruity/raspberry, spicy woody scent. Quality is inferior the Azzaro. Sample before buying as this is not a cheap clone.

Better buy decant first. I regret buy full bottle. Not for me and not suitable for Malaysia weather.

i dont know what forever wanted elixir smells like, but i do not like this smell. doesnt mean its a bad dupe, just means i dislike the DNA and it is not blind buy safe trust

Don't throw your money away on a full bottle of this without trying it first. Save money on wasted blind buys, try my samples first at the best prices possible and tailor your fragrance collection to your specific taste, after all we all have different tastes :) --- if interested check us out: Decantified.com -- we have them all. Thank you!! Here is my honest review for Fragrantica: First impression (before wearing): The opening has notes that reminds me a little bit of a darker and more manly version of Hawas for some reason. I smell a nice bubblegum sweetness in the background, but it's not being overtaken by this. I feel like I am getting gourmand and smoky notes in the background and something a little heavy in the back ground, perhaps leather? Far from synthetic, everything feels just right with this fragrance. Very designer quality right here. Thoughts after wearing: Woman will absolutely love this on a man, it's a mysterious and sexy smell. From what I can find the notes are listed as Bergamot, Clary sage, Raspberry, Amber, Cedarwood, Leather, Vetiver. I would assume the bubblegum smell I was getting in my first impression was the mix of the Bergamot, Raspberry, and Sage. But at the heart you can feel the leather and earthy/woody/smoky/sweet smell constantly. As it dries down more, it becomes a little more serious and less playful. This is not a linear scent and it does thankfully have some evolution to it. It feels like a very manly and refined scent. Although it doesn't loose it's hint of some sweetness, making this male leaning unisex. The Review: Better suited for evening wear, or colder weather. I'm reading that it may be either a clone of Dior Homme intense, or Wanted by Night. Longevity is where this fragrance shines. I sprayed this on at 10am and I could smell it by 8pm. It was a light skin scent by that time. But I am glad to still be able to smell it after all that time. Especially since it has not matured yet, this may improve over time. Sillage and projection as of right now are just average. And that's not bad. I like my fragrances to be a little more loud then this, BUT we can't forget this is one of the things that may get better over time as the fragrance matures. And I do hope it does. I want to smell more of this in the air because it's so good. Rating this for now a 8.5/10

If Ahmed Al Maghribi had made 9PM Night Out, you'd get this. Not a mass appealer but if you like dark, fruity and sweet it's worth checking out.
