About Encre Noire
Lalique is best known for Encre Noire from 2006, a vetiver study that perfumer Nathalie Lorson built to showcase the raw, smoky depth of Haitian vetiver, one of the most discussed niche-adjacent designer fragrances of the decade. Encre Noire remains the most sought-after fragrance in the catalog, built on vetiver, cypress, cashmere wood, soft musk. The concentration and quality of raw materials used sets it apart from what you find at a similar price point from mass-market houses.
Perles de Lalique takes the line in a different direction. Where Encre Noire is the anchor, Perles de Lalique shows the range's willingness to explore contrasting scent families. Satine rounds out the catalog with a third option covering men and women who want yet another direction in the same quality tier.
