I get compliments from Encre Noire original. It's classy, unique, and black tie worthy. The clean, vibrant smokiness of the vetiver and the aromatic greenness of the cyprus make this fragrance the star that it is!
I just received it because even people that didn't like it seem to appreciate it. I really like it. It might sound strange but it reminds me of an old library in the middle of the woods. I know that's a strange description but that's what popped into my head
Encre Noire is 10/10 for me easily. The price, the uniqueness, the straight up representation of vetiver... there's nothing like it out there. It's also my first vetiver fragrance as well. It smells like you're in a funeral in a rainy afternoon. I fucking love it
Commodity Vetiver is strong please know that. I like the black currant in there but folks have polarized reactions to the Vetiver some say has a anamalic feel. I've come to like it and I got surprise response from a beautiful woman when I wore it complete surprise.
I love all three. These are fragrances that you were for yourself and nobody else. The original is probably my favorite and is the fragrance I wear when I want to be left alone.
If you are deeply in the frangrance world, you would prefer the standard Encre Noire or the Extreme version for sure. For the others, who are not interested so much in fragrances, the Sport is way more likeable and get's the most compliments of all 3, especially ladies like it.
All 3 are super underrated... Encre noire is special occasion in winter or spring... Al extreme is fall and winter night time.. cool weather.. pea coat, leather jacket, night out.... Sport is all year .. anytime anyplace!
Do u think Encre Noir A L'Extreme is a versatiole scentz that a teen can wear i love the bottle and the uniqnss but never smelt it theclosest thing i could compare it to is ombre leather which isnt very similar but i dont have much experience?
I had the original a few years ago. I can’t remember why I it’s not in my collection now, but it must have made an impression because years later I still remember it and was thinking about buying another bottle. I didn’t know which version to buy. I watched several videos reviewing the three showcased here and you helped me make my decision. I’m going with the original. Why change a winning formula. Thank you!
I own all 3 versions. The OG is my favorite. I use it often in spring, autumn an winter when going into the forest. The Sport is my least favorite. It's light and watery, ideal for the summer. The A L'Extreme is my nr. 2. It's intensive in the way of softness and richness, but has not the longevity of the OG. It's starts powerful but gets quickly weaker (projection). 🙂
Believe it or not, I wear my fragrances primarily at home to feel good. Terre D’Hermès edt is my magical potion. I just ordered Encre Noire A L’Extrême. I think I’m gonna like it.
My favorite is l'extreme. I could reach it in more ocasions than the OG so i could point it was a 8 of 10. About the sport version, at least in my opinion, I don't get the point in a sport fragance with heavy vetiver. So it's my least favorite as well.
Yeah I reach for l’extreme most out of the encre noire collection. And totally agree on the sport version.. weird combo and they didnt manage to pull it off..
I personally don't care about compliments. I don't need them. I wear fragrance for me, although I never wear anything that makes other people uncomfortable.
The original is the best. The encre noire line should have stuck with creating more flankers that push the envelop like the original draw inspiration from a company like Beaufort London but have their own DNA twist. They have other fragrances in other lines that can play the safe mass market game.
True. They should have gone deeper into the original for any flankers. Like I mentioned in the video, the original is unique with a l’extreme being a good flanker. Sport was just a weird addition to this fragrance collection 🤷🏽♂️
Gonna be completely honest here, almost EVERY TIME I wear Encre Noire og, I recieve compliments. Im not sure if it' just agrees with my chemestry or something, but it shines off my skin, and I do over spray, It lasts all day on clothes.😊
To my nose (and I´m sensitive to overly vetiver heavy scents that are in a specific way) Grey Vetiver is much better.. Tom Fords Take on Vetiver is so much smoother, classier and definitely more wearable than let's say encre noir. But that's just how I feel about it.. If you love vetiver you might enjoy these 😊
@@rottenrebels I smelled TF Grey Vetiver the other day and it blew my mind, as I always thought as Vetiver being extremely old cologne smelling. The smell was so refined and fresh smelling. I was exploring to see if any other vetivers are similar before purchasing TF...?
@@leomedrano3332 Yes exactly! A lot of vetiver heavy fragrances either smell bad or "oldish". A lot of guys enjoy them but I don't and most women I met really don't think vetiver is an attractive kind of scent. I have not come across many other fragrances like Tom Ford Grey Vetiver. It's so smooth!!
@@rottenrebels Strange comment, I wear Vetiver mostly and have never yet received a comment from a woman in the bar. However, several of their partners have pestered me what I was wearing a few days later having met their partner and later being probed by their wife's I suspect. (I don't let on) I'm knocking on a bit though.
Encre Sport is my favorite.lighter vetiver nakes it so versatile and fresh. I absolutely love its giving me heavy Vetiver Moloko by Ex Nihili.10 for me.
You most likely live in a very warm country, Saroj bhai, so I would rate these three this way: 1) encre noire, 2) lion, 3) a l'exreme. Lion may be disappointing though,it grew on me during several months. Now I like it a lot.
Do u think Encre Noir A L'Extreme is a versatiole scentz that a teen can wear i love the bottle and the uniqnss but never smelt it theclosest thing i could compare it to is ombre leather which isnt very similar but i dont have much experience?
@@Fragman-Scoop I would go lightly with this combo as both pack a punch. I tried a few ways and think one pump of each on the chest works good. I love extreme but it’s sometimes hard to find when it’s a perfect wear. In fact sometimes I feel it’s just art in a bottle and only this?
Definitely is art in a bottle ENE. I try not to over think it. If I fancy wearing a fragrance regardless of occasion I just pull the trigger. I remember at work in a busy area colleagues saying who is wearing that terrible aftershave. I just smiled, owned up and still wore it the next day. There probably is no perfect occasion for ENE unless surrounded by frag heads. Selfishly I wear fragrances for my own pleasure. People will enjoy some scents and not others. Given up trying to please the masses many years ago. No way I am wearing blue fragrances every day.

@@wayne2150 well said! I also het compliments just about every time i wear Encre Noire. The fact that I actually love it is the best part tho!
I never wear smells for compliments. I wear them because I like them and make me feel a certain way. Thanks for the video.
Same for me then (even though compliments is a nice bonus). Like I mention in a lot of my videos. Different scents for different vibes. 🙏
Wah, tampaknya menarik
Sadly i get nose blind quickly and don't get to enjoy my perfume foe long time
Same here, but lets be honest, its nice to know people like the way we smell, right?
It’s all about our nose not others🥳🥳❤️👍Me too care for my Nose

i agree with you 100%
I absolutely love encre noire sport. Commodity vetiver is another absolute love.
Thanks for sharing 😊
indeed i have both of them.
Commodity Vetiver is strong please know that. I like the black currant in there but folks have polarized reactions to the Vetiver some say has a anamalic feel. I've come to like it and I got surprise response from a beautiful woman when I wore it complete surprise.
I got Noire and Noire Sport as a blind buy and i think i got really really lucky. Love them both!

I agree 💯

Which one should i buy? Encre noir original or A L'extreme??
I like dark and unique smell
I appreciate your candor and directness in assessing the Encre Noir line. I’ll need to experience it before heading into a blind buy.

how did you find it?
To me the extreme version really reminds of Chanel Sycomore. Enough that, if money was an issue, I'd be satisfied with this .
Thanks for sharing! 😊
My favorite is l'extreme. I could reach it in more ocasions than the OG so i could point it was a 8 of 10.

I totally get the spots fragrance with the vetiver the best smell ever. Love the OG but extreme I don’t like at all.
Is it comparable to Hermes Vetiver Intense?

i have two decants of encre noir they both smell different.... not sure whats going on here
Does Encre Noire à L'Extrême smell closely to Jovoy Incident Diplomatique?
Encre Sport is my favorite.lighter vetiver nakes it so versatile and fresh. I absolutely love its giving me heavy Vetiver Moloko by Ex Nihili.10 for me.
Thanks for sharing! It's definitely the more light and easier to wear vetiver out of these 😊
Really well done review. 👏 🙂
Encre Noire Sport and Jaïpur Homme is my 2 favorite frags. I've reviewed those also.
I just subscribed. 😃
Never tried Jaipur Homme.. Thanks for sharing and.. WELCOME to the tribe! 🙂🙌
At 1,25x you sound ok, just a little piece of advice: try to speed up your talking a little bit!
Insightful review, thanks for the content
Idk what this guy’s talking about, the edt just smells like straight up ink. You can’t even tell it has vetiver lol
Encre noir original is an introverts’ scent… man this is unique “for those who are introvert among introverts”
If I need to try/buy one between Encre Noire, L'Extreme, Pour homme lion then which one?
You most likely live in a very warm country, Saroj bhai, so I would rate these three this way: 1) encre noire, 2) lion, 3) a l'exreme. Lion may be disappointing though,it grew on me during several months. Now I like it a lot.
encre noir smells like white musk from bodyshop but a more earthier version. more musky
Fantastic job my man and definitely agree the sport version was a let down, especially compared to the original.
Thanks 😊🙏 yeah encre noire sport did not impress me 🤷🏽♂️
Do u think Encre Noir A L'Extreme is a versatiole scentz that a teen can wear i love the bottle and the uniqnss but never smelt it theclosest thing i could compare it to is ombre leather which isnt very similar but i dont have much experience?
La lique extreme gives me a headache
Very peaceful voice and my personal opinion your review is way off but that's just my opinion 🤷🏿♂️
I get complement every time with original !
Thanks for sharing!
Extreme smells like a very expensive Chanel
Layer extreme with joop wild, boozy woody rum!
Thanks for the suggestion! 😊
Will give that a try Liam, have them both and enjoy layering, a benefit of a decent collection.

@@Fragman-Scoop I like the mentality of this, I still wear original Joop! In winter even though it’s almost hated on, I love it.
It dose not smell like being in a forest, it smells like being in the toilet
The ring u have on your finger is from iran i think :)
