The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2016 by By Kilian and crafted by perfumer Calice Becker, Noir Aphrodisiaque is a sophisticated floral fruity gourmand fragrance that balances warmth with unexpected depth. The composition opens with a bright citrus note that quickly gives way to the rich, spicy warmth of cinnamon and cacao. At its heart lies an intriguing blend of iris, adding a subtle floral complexity that contrasts beautifully against the sweet and powdery base notes.

How to wear it

This fragrance develops best close to skin rather than projecting widely. A light spritz in the morning will allow the spicy top notes to evolve into the richer base throughout the day, ensuring a nuanced experience from start to finish.

Flowers inside a bottle of eau de cologne

Calice Becker (Asancheyev-Becker) is a French master perfumer and director of the Givaudan Perfumery School, whose fascination with perfume began as a child asking how flowers get inside a bottle of eau de cologne.

“I like to add a dose of intrigue because nothing catches the attention of a touch of something unexpected.”
