{"product_id":"atralia-absolute-noir-sample","title":"Atralia Absolute Noir Sample","description":"\u003cp\u003eAtralia Absolute Noir is a woody aromatic perfume that FragranceGems describes as mysterious and charismatic, balancing dark masculinity against a modern freshness. Pink pepper, grapefruit, lemon and bergamot open it, ambroxan, pineapple and watermelon fill the heart, and moss, vetiver and patchouli make up the base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFragrance notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTop:\u003c\/b\u003e Pink Pepper, Grapefruit, Lemon, Bergamot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHeart:\u003c\/b\u003e Ambroxan, Pineapple, Watermelon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBase:\u003c\/b\u003e Moss, Vetiver, Patchouli\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePink pepper through the citrus\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFragranceGems says the pink pepper cuts sharply through the sparkling, bitter sides of grapefruit, lemon and bergamot. That makes the first minutes crisp rather than sweet. Notice whether the pepper or the citrus oils come across first on your skin, and how quickly the top gives way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAmbroxan with fruit\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the heart, ambroxan meets pineapple and watermelon. FragranceGems describes its molecular texture melting into the juicy, sweet contrast of the two fruits. It is an unusual pairing, and exactly the kind that smells different from person to person, so wear it on a day without other strong scents around.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMoss, vetiver and patchouli\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe base is moss, vetiver and patchouli. FragranceGems describes the vetiver and patchouli as dark and vibrating, balanced by the forest-like moss. This stage gives the word noir in the name its meaning, and it shows whether the perfume ends dry and earthy or smooth on your skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to test it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eApply it on clean skin in the evening, with a light spray on the neck and another on the chest, and take the pepper opening, the fruity heart and the earthy end as separate steps. Try it a second time at work to see how it behaves in an ordinary day. Compare the two wearings before you decide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFits people who like woody, citrus and aquatic perfumes with an earthy, darker base, for work and evenings. FragranceGems tags it as unisex with moderate intensity, for spring, summer and autumn. If fruit notes such as pineapple put you off in a woody perfume, a sample shows quickly how present they are.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy try Atralia Absolute Noir as a sample first\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith pink pepper, pineapple, watermelon and ambroxan in one pyramid, you cannot guess the balance from a list. FragranceGems fills the decant from the original bottle and labels it itself, so it is not an official brand sample, and Atralia is not involved. Try it over several days, in the order the notes unfold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs Absolute Noir sweet because of the pineapple?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFragranceGems describes the pineapple and watermelon as juicy, sweet contrasts to the ambroxan, and they sit in the heart. The pepper on top and the earthy base balance that, but how sweet it feels differs per skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat does the moss do in the base?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFragranceGems says the forest-like moss balances the dark vetiver and patchouli. In a perfume that tends to bring an earthy, green depth rather than a sweet one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs Absolute Noir an evening perfume?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFragranceGems tags it for evening, work and daily wear. The name suggests night, but citrus and fruit give it a fresh side, so it is worth testing by day as well as in the evening.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atralia","offers":[{"title":"2 ml","offer_id":67705662013594,"sku":"DG-ATR-ABSOLUTE-NOIR-002ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"5 ml","offer_id":67705662046362,"sku":"DG-ATR-ABSOLUTE-NOIR-005ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"10 ml","offer_id":67705662079130,"sku":"DG-ATR-ABSOLUTE-NOIR-010ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0782\/5938\/8570\/files\/atralia-absolute-noir-sample.jpg?v=1791501625","url":"https:\/\/decantgems.eu\/products\/atralia-absolute-noir-sample","provider":"DecantGems","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
