The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2015 by Maison Louis Marie, No.03 L'Etang Noir is a unisex Oriental Spicy fragrance that balances warmth and freshness. The composition opens with the spicy notes of nutmeg, anise, and cloves, creating an immediate sense of complexity and depth. As it evolves, vanilla and benzoin add a rich sweetness to the mix, while tonka bean brings a warm, slightly smoky undertone reminiscent of tobacco blossom. This interplay between the bright spices and the enveloping warmth makes L'Etang Noir both invigorating and comforting.

How to wear it

No.03 L'Etang Noir has a strong opening with its bright spice notes, which fade into a warmer base after about an hour. A single spray is enough to capture the full range of this fragrance — it reads best when worn close to the skin rather than sprayed liberally around the room.
