In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

The Parfumerie offers a niche olfactory puzzle with Apricot Kiwi. It fuses the initial bright tartness of kiwi with a rich hazelnut backbone. This unisex fragrance wears like an autumn dessert, steering clear of typical summer citrus trends. It sits close to the skin, offering a cozy warmth for casual daytime settings.

Reviews →

Shades of Noir Berry Noir by The Parfumerie is a rich unisex blend centered on dark wild berries and warm spicy notes. Released in 2017, it fits cooler fall evenings when you want a cozy fruit scent with a subtle wood and hazelnut backbone rather than a simple sugary blast.
