Noir Gabardine

Noir Gabardine is a nice scent with great versatility for warm weather, daytime. It leans to masculine scents imo. Very sharp, citrusy-green, spicy and slightly woody with dominant ginger, bergamot, mild tonka beans, mild mandarine and.. ambroxan. The rest notes are faint. The feeling from this niche scent is quite common, generic. I've smelled that before a million times. If I couldn't see the bottle I'd say that it's a DG or Armani or Versace creation. Sillage & projection are fine and the longevity is above the average. A good scent with common smell. Edit Oh.. this is better than Sauvage.. I like it very much! At the late drydown I get similar vibe as Ajmal Mystery. Very nice! Definitely it's in the same team as Sauvage though..

Oh. My. God. I ordered a small sample of this and I think I just found my signature scent? This smells like golden sunshine drizzled over clean, cotton laundry that’s been hung on the clothes line in the middle of summertime. There’s something very youthful about it, and the way it dries down on the skin is almost sweet, but not in a sugar or candy kind of way. I feel like a little goes a long way, and while I tested it on bare skin I think it would layer very well with other lotions or oils depending on how they’re scented. I would love to purchase a full size and add it to my collection!

This is the best ambroxan scent I've ever tryied. I bought it today for year round use, great versatility. Better than Sauvage imo which I also like. The ambroxan effect lasts only at the opening. Then it becomes a beautiful projecting scent! If you prefer a more discreet and smooth ambroxan scent, try Naso di Raza and Lalique's exclusives. The most refined ambroxan scents I've ever experienced. "Ghost" ambroxan scents, masterfully blended.

It definitely resembles Yohji Yamamoto 1996. So wonderful. I never knew I could be reconnected with such a Memorable and beloved scent. definitely worth checking out if you love the original YY

in my opinion, it has all the characters of a perfect perfume. Scent 9/10 Longevity 9/10 Sillage 9/10
