The review

On paper, Japon Noir is a reasonable bet if you want Japon Noir for less.

Zoha Aroma sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Japon Noir's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Evidence6.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Zoha Aroma 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 aldehydes, bergamot and black pepper, turns to osmanthus, incense and cardamom, and settles into woody notes, amber and benzoin. That is the brief Japon Noir is working from.

Top

  • aldehydes
  • bergamot
  • black pepper

Heart

  • osmanthus
  • incense
  • cardamom

Base

  • woody notes
  • amber
  • benzoin
Aldehydes and osmanthus over incense and warm woods; refined, smoky and quietly opulent.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
