The females in film noir were either of two types (or archetypes) - dutiful, reliable, trustworthy and loving women; or femmes fatales - mysterious, duplicitous, subversive, double- crossing, gorgeous, unloving, predatory, tough- sweet, unreliable, irresponsible, manipulative and desperate women. Usually, the male protagonist in film noir wished to elude his mysterious past, and had to choose what path to take (or have the fateful choice made for him).

Invariably, the choice would be an overly ambitious. The goadings of the traitorous, self- destructive femme fatale would lead the struggling, disillusioned, and doomed hero into committing murder or some other crime of passion coupled with twisted love. When the major character was a detective or private eye, he would become embroiled and trapped in an increasingly- complex, convoluted case that would lead to fatalistic, suffocating evidences of corruption, irresistible love and death.

Jasmin Noir Bvlgari perfume - a fragrance for women 2. My 2. 3 year old son has been on a quest to find a signature scent that works for him, and is appropriate for his profession (a manager in the hospitality industry in the tropics). He "borrowed" several of my fragraces, spraying them on and letting them settle, to better understand the various notes. He applied one quick spray of Jasmin Noir and after letting it dry down, he walked by me. The fragrance on him was unrecognizable from the Jasmin Noir I occasionally wear. On my son, it was sublime!

Modestly woodsy - possibly a touch of sandalwood - with a very slight green/floral smell of what I call Confederate or Star Jasmin (Trachelospermum jasminoides), and a dash of licorice and hint vanilla bean. I want to emphasize the "jasmin" I smell in Jasmin Noir is not of Jasmin Sambac (which is called Pikake in Hawaii). Most interesting to me, is that in no way did Jasmin Noir smell girly, or even feminine on my son .. I had always thought of this as a solid feminine fragrace! FYI: A few days later son went off to work wearing Jasmin Noir sprayed once, lightly, on the back of his neck.

When he came home he reported the following: The owner of the business, a male early 5. A female patron (2. I think the sillage on this scent is modest (at least with one spray on my son). But I would not say it wears "close" to him because I catch a delightful whiff when he walks by. But, it is well behaved, and does not leave any taste in my mouth the way so many of the masculine fragrances do.

I think Jasmin Noir smells really dark, woodsy, and unexpectly jasmin- like on my son. He is tall, handsome and very masculine, and somehow this works really well on him. From the compliments he has been hearing, this opinion is shared by others.

As an aside, this scent may seem more masculine in Hawaii, than in some places in the world. But I would think it would work well as a masculine scent any place where the weather is warm, and their is a green/floral sweetness in the Summer breeze.

In the dark of winter, it might seem out of place on a man. So. as is perhaps always true of fragrance notes, who is wearing it, and where and when, is part of the consideration.
