    If you are chasing a straightforward spicy frag, this may feel more complex than expected. The floral notes are subtle, not dominant, so do not expect jasmine to lead.Autumn Shadows
    Serge Noire doesn't hedge. No polite opening, no tentative drydown. Just smoke, spice, and the kind of warmth earned by standing still long enough to let it find you. Serious about itself.Serge Noire
