Sampled & thought damn this is nice but very familiar.. more I smelled it I was like this smells like Armani’s Code.. but a lighter variation. Really nice scent if you’re looking for a code dupe you cold do year round. Not big on men’s scents, but I’d even prob. consider wearing this.. has that sweetness I like in a men’s fragrance, my take it’s kinda like a cross b/t Armani’s Code & Prada Luna Rossa..

Smelled nice on a card at Macy’s. I got samples of this entire line from Michel Germain. Very nice of them to send the samples. The Sexual Steel seems to be my favorite.
On my skin, this smells like a mix of baby powder and baby wipes, with a hint of honey. Smells like your hands when eating a honey biscuit after changing your babies diaper.
Not for me!

I like it
2 sprays at macys in passing and it is on tne jacket 5 days later.
Better after it drys out a bit.i know it is a wee bit synthetic but i do not care.
I will get a sample at some point or perhaps just buy it.
Fills the same niche as YSL la nuit which is already in my wardrobe so i did not buy.
Maybe it will not win any awards but seems well made enough,does the job and is reliable.
Inexpensive and unpretentious ,the juice stands alone.
Bottle looks like a rip off at Halston’s

nothing sexy or original about this one.I would not say that this is the same as Avant Garde by Lanvin as that one is too powdery and sweet, but sexualnoir is not an original and doesn’t rise above the mediocre level.
DarkerThenYou – :
A weak substitute for Lanvin’s Avant Garde.
The tobacco/honey combo is barely noticeable here. After the opening spray, it just limps along as a generic sweet scent (which doesn’t stick around for long anyway).
The Lanvin is far more rewarding.

-says in Obi-Wanesque tone- This is not the sexy you are looking for. To be honest the only thing sexy I’ve found in this fragrance was the bottle itself. The scent gave total deja-eau (like deja-vu but fragrance wise), this goes into the cookie cutter pile as well. Trust most of the reviews here, its an overplayed formula that won’t make you stand out.
Timka – :
Very versatile, lacking in longevity, good projection. You’ve smelled this before.
uzik – :
At first smell, it smells so horridly overdone, been-there-done-that, like everything else lining the mens’ fragrance counter…
But then I sit back and smell it more closely, and there’s actually some merit to this composition. The most noticeable notes at first are the tobacco and cardamom…but when you really breathe in and examine this fragrance, the tonka and honey are revealed that sweeten it up in a beautiful way.
So at first, I’m sold.
Then….
I realize that this is exactly the same as Armani Code Ultimate. To a tee. I wear Ultimate ALL THE TIME, and this is so incredibly similar.
Praichheade – :
This is very, very similar to Ferragamo Black.
