The full profile.
French Avenue Moonstone Noire smells like a soft leather jacket with warm vanilla undertones. Smooth, smoky and quietly confident.
Smoky notes open it, setting a dark, moody tone from the first spray. The heart is balsam, cedarwood and vetiver, resinous and woody. Amber notes, Saffiano leather, vanilla and white oud form the base, soft leather wrapped in warm sweetness.
This 2024 release reads unisex and is a night scent for spring, fall and winter, for casual evenings. It lasts a long time and projects to about arm's length, a signature-style trail that lingers on clothes and scarves.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone who wants a soft, wearable leather scent with a vanilla finish.
- Sample first if: smoky openings sometimes feel harsh on you.
- Skip if: you want a fresh, fruity or daytime scent.
The community reads it as a fairly safe blind buy for leather fans, and it is not very divisive. It is a good first leather if the rougher, smokier ones have put you off before.
Around $45.
