The review
On paper, Black Coal is an outside bet if you want Noir Anthracite for less.
Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Noir Anthracite's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
It is sold as an extrait — a high concentration, which usually means it sits closer to the skin for longer.
It is $114 per 100ml.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Perfume Parlour 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 black pepper, plum and bergamot, turns to geranium, orange blossom and freesia, and settles into leather, vetiver and patchouli. That is the brief Black Coal is working from.
Top
- black pepper
- plum
- bergamot
Heart
- geranium
- orange blossom
- freesia
Base
- leather
- vetiver
- patchouli
A crisp opening giving way to dark leather and amber; sleek, mysterious and versatile.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
How it ranks against the other twins
Of the 4 twins of Tom Ford Noir Anthracite we can price, Black Coal is number 3 on price per 100ml.
