A smooth and quietly seductive take on clean woods, Bleu Noir Eau de Parfum opens with a brisk lift that reads airy and polished before the house’s signature musc takes the lead, plush and skin like, then deepens into blue toned woods where cedar and ebony mingle with earthy vetiver and a soft amber glow for an elegant, modern trail built for day to night wear.

Story and Positioning
Created as the deeper counterpart to the 2015 Eau de Toilette, Bleu Noir Eau de Parfum explores the brand’s blue and black duality, portraying refined masculine sensuality with a clearer focus on musc wrapped in mineral woods. It anchors an expanding line that later added Eau de Toilette Extrême in 2020 and Parfum in 2022. If you enjoy crisp woody musks with a tailored feel, think along the lines of clean spicy woods referenced around Cartier Déclaration and the sparkling freshness of Azzaro Chrome, now rendered through Narciso’s musc signature for effortless office to evening use.
Bottle and Design
The square for him flacon returns with a deep night blue inner lacquer that glows through a thick clear glass shell, keeping the line’s graphic architecture and satisfying heft in the hand. The minimal typography and rectilinear cap complete a sleek, modern object that reads refined on the dresser while echoing the scent’s blue on black idea.
