Les Roches Noires

Les Roches Noires by the Italian house Moncler (2023) is a spicy fragrance according to everyone who rates it, with about half also finding it gourmand, woody, floral, resinous and citrusy. It is a short, focused note list built around pepper.

Black pepper and pepper give a dry, sharp, lively heat from the start, and lemon adds a clean citrus brightness beside them. Geranium brings a rosy, slightly minty green note to the heart. The base turns warm and sweet: tonka bean adds a nutty, vanilla-like sweetness, labdanum a dark, resinous, slightly honeyed depth, and patchouli an earthy, woody darkness that balances the sweetness.

Les Roches Noires is a shared fragrance, worn by anyone. Pepper and lemon over tonka and labdanum make it versatile across the cooler half of the year and wearable in daytime as well as evening. It should appeal to people who like spicy scents with a soft, warm finish rather than a harsh or dry one.
