History
"The gentle forcefulness of a man's perfume".Drakkar Noir was the world's most widely used men's perfume for almost a decade.A rarity in the world of perfumery: almost half the men in America have worn it sometime in their life. It still remains today one of the top ten perfumes in Europe.Its success is a result of the typically masculine scent, a classic fougere accord updated with a contemporary fruity note.Drakkar Noir covers the full range of Latin-lover codes, from "macho" to ladies' man, reasserting the virility of young men it is meant for.Over the years, the advertising of the perfume has included Golf G.T.I.'s to rock star fans.
Bottle
The bottle was designed when black first appeared as a distinctive color for men's products.

Such history involved with this one. I love the pyramid, it is definitely a draw for me especially the pineapple and the base notes. I also like the name. I need to inhale this one.

Etonnant que ce parfum plait autant. La caricature du macho. J'aime la lavande mais là c'est un peu trop. Son seul mérite est d'être rafraichissant. Pas pour moi.

Je me souviens d'avoir offert le savon coordonné à mon papa l'année de la sortie de Drakkar Noir. Que de souvenirs...
