Thé Noir 29 by Le Labo is built around black tea, and it shows in the dry, leafy finish. Bay leaf, bergamot and fig open it green and a touch sharp, before black pepper, more black tea and rose fill a heart that feels almost savoury. Amber, cedarwood, hay, musk, tobacco and vetiver close it out, dry and faintly smoky rather than sweet. As an eau de parfum from 2015, it draws men and women who want something considered rather than loud. It belongs to autumn and winter, worn across the day and well into the night. Most wearers vote it long-lasting. The sillage vote leans moderate, so it sits close on the skin. A 3ml decant is a fair way to learn the dry-down before buying the bottle.
