The Story
Drakkar Noir is a classic aromatic fougère that defined the power-dressing era of the 1980s. The 2018 reformulation maintains the iconic lavender, lemon, and mint top notes, with a heart of juniper and coriander, resting on a base of leather, oakmoss, and patchouli. It's a bold, confident scent that still feels relevant today.
