Cafe Noir

Cafe Noir opens with a sharp bolt of cardamom and pepper that cracks against dark, roasted coffee and soft lavender—bracing and almost medicinal. The heart softens into cedar and rose, where vanilla and patchouli create a gentle, earthy warmth beneath the wood's dry spine. Sandalwood and benzoin anchor the base with creamy sweetness, while ambrette adds a subtle, skin-like musk that keeps everything grounded and intimate rather than indulgent.
