Black Lanoe — one of those scents that needs no introduction. A unisex fragrance from the fern and wood families. Perfumer Simone Schmelzer left a distinct mark on this composition. Created within the Trend collection and available in eau de parfum.
The home of this fragrance is Germany. Black Lanoe unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.
The fragrance is highly persistent and lasts on the skin for up to 8–10 hours, gradually revealing its notes and allowing you to enjoy the full bouquet throughout the day
The scent is clearly present near you, but it does not fill the entire space
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The composition of Black evolves as an expressive line of development, where layers reveal themselves without rush and without gaps. The style of Lanoe comes through in the way notes appear and fade. Every decision feels deliberate, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Eau de parfum keeps a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
In the first seconds you detect radiant lemon-bergamot opening notes: Citrus accord and Juniper berries. These 2 notes set sunny vitality that is impossible to miss.
In the heart you detect Black Pepper, Clove and Cumin carrying a cinnamon-nutmeg direction.
The accord profile is driven by these accords: Citrus, Wood, Leather and Spicy with each one in a clear role. The stylistic positioning is unisex, which makes the scent profile easier to read.
From the group perspective the profile is anchored in Citrus, Fruit, Spicy and Wood. The palette also extends to Leather. Within olfactory families the composition sits in Fern and Wood.
Overall Black sounds complete from start to finish — the start forms character, the central phase adds depth, and the base secures the trail. These are the scent structures best judged on skin.
