The review
On paper, The Black 92 is a reasonable bet if you want Thé Noir 29 for less.
Emper sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Thé Noir 29's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Emper publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
The original opens on bergamot, fig and bay leaf, turns to cedar, vetiver and musk, and settles into tobacco and hay. That is the brief The Black 92 is working from.
Top
- bergamot
- fig
- bay leaf
Heart
- cedar
- vetiver
- musk
Base
- tobacco
- hay
For the one who reads by candlelight, brewing strong black tea while fig and smoky cedar drift quietly through a cool, contemplative evening.
