By the editors · 2 min readGinger and rum open Coeur de Noir with immediate warmth — the former sharp and spiced, the latter sweet and slightly alcoholic. Beaufort London builds toward a leather-vanilla heart that doesn't compromise: the leather is dry and structural, vanilla providing sweetness without infantilizing it.
Birch and tobacco anchor the base in earthy, slightly smoky depth; cedar adds woody dryness. The general palette extends the portrait: black pepper's heat, lavender's herbal restraint, suede's softness. A dark, complex masculine with genuine personality, from a house that doesn't make agreeable fragrances.
