The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2024 by Giorgio Armani, Noir Kogane is a Leather fragrance for both women and men, crafted with the expertise of perfumer Daphné Bugey. The composition opens with the warmth of Haitian vetiver and elemi, creating an aromatic tension that gives way to a rich heart of saffron and tobacco. The base notes are anchored by leather and earthy undertones, adding depth and complexity to the overall scent. Noir Kogane is not just a fragrance; it's an invitation into a world where sophistication meets boldness.

How to wear it

For best results, apply Noir Kogane to pulse points in moderation — the warm spicy notes project well but can be overpowering if overapplied. The base notes bloom slowly, so allow time for them to develop fully on your skin.
