I insufflated (and purchased) the trio in 2004 while still at university. I had never in my life smelled anything like those three scents. They were strange and beautiful. And the names! 'Blanche', 'Noire', 'Argent'! They were chosen because those were the primary colours of Hedi Slimane's Dior Homme men's collection. All his clothes were black and white with silver accessories. The whole concept was revolutionary. And the scents are still incomparably unique today. Chanel did it for women in the 20s. Slimane did it for men in the 2000s. Thank you for reviewing them so beautifully (as per yooje), D. ❤

I love Cologne Blanche, It's my favorite

I bought this same set mostly for eau noir. I find the new one less sweet and more spicy. BUT, I’m very happy that it’s not an insult to my older eau noir. Honestly, they’re all good.

Looks like you caught the sun, Papa P! Welcome back.

The very first moment of sniffing new ones seems really happy as I do always. Hope to feel them soon.

Persolaise, I own an old bottle of Bois d'Argent by Dior and I love it. Ambre Nuit & Fève Délicieuse are my 2 favorites from the La Collection Privée line.

i tried cologne blanche last december, and it took some time to grow on me. Dior definitely hit its peak in the 2000s creativity-wise. I got the 3 new samples waiting on me once i return home next friday!

Welcome back! Great review👌 we missed you mate! Cheerio mate🥂😉

Oo I love this! Have you done the Eau Noire comparison yet? That’s my favorite and I’m dying to know. I only smelled the green one a couple of times so can’t compare. I cannot stop wearing the new one! Regardless of the changes, I really adore the new one. I recommend for bed.

How do these people smell Bois D’Argent in Paris everywhere? this is a skin scent, i barely detect it after 3 hours of putting it on 😅 i still love it

Francis with Eau noire took Sycomore and said "let this forest burn!". I hate that I like this fragrance, I can't explain this feeling. It's like I can't stop thinking of it and I keep smelling my wrist trying to capture every shades of it. Maybe this is how real love feels like? ugh.

Welcome home 😀

Today I bought a 40 ml "Eau Noir": (Un)fotunately I've never smelt the previous one, so I love this and I'm happy ( I'm curious about your opinion nevertheless). Bois d'argent smell different to me and I'll use the 7ml miniature my sister gave me years ago as long as it lasts and then if things are different or change my mind I can try the new one. I'm both glad and a little sorry I haven't tried Eau Noir before, but for now I'll enjoy my little bottle! Yes, Cologne Blanche is very nice, for me it is the kind of fraagrance that seems to slow time so I can relax. I find it smells soft, and comfortable.

Fragrance enthusiasts are so cynical Persolaise: More subtle, maybe more blended more abstract but really beautiful! Comments: It's gutted and watered down trash isn't it!! 😂

The Blanche one sounds like it would do well in Scandinavia. We tend to like the airy crisp and perhaps quite fleeting scents like MMM Replica Lazy Sunday Morning

My 2021 bottle of Bois D'Argent burns my nostrils sometimes. Maybe the quieter incarnation would be a better fit for me. Will need to sample this. I hope the drydown is good.

Surprised no one mentioned that Sycomore parfum comes out next month!

So many fragrance addicts are miserable and cynical. Demachy is one of their bogeymen. His perfume could cure cancer and they would whine about it. They refuse to give anything new a chance at all. I ignore all of their opinions. Whenever Kurkdjian decides to put out a new Dior pillar, rest assured, their initial reaction will be to despise it no matter how it smells.

On Dior's website it says François Demachy as perfumer for Bois d'Argent, which is very disrespectful for Annick Mernado, as she was the true master behind this beauty, I wish Dior would at least pay their respect to her by adding her name as the perfumer. That said, I love the new version of Bois d'Argent and Cologne Blanche. Eau Noir is gorgeous on one of my friends but I can't wear it.

After this review from Sire P I’m going to purchase all three in the 100ml 🫡🫣🤩 Sire P, do you think Captain Kurk did the Celine fragrances since they are under LVMH too?

Hi. How do you think, what is better, Bois d’argent or Amouage Interlude Black Iris? I like both, but will buy only one. My favorites are Dior Ambre Nuit and Yves Saint Laurent Tuxedo

Concerning Bois d'argent; Is this new Francis Kurkdjian version going to replace the current version (big bottle), or is this just a limited edition in this trio-box?

am i the only one finding eau noire (smelled it the very first time only recently) similar to CdG’s Black? not same of course, but similar vibe, the common smoky and slightly foody licorice i guess. similar to how french lover compares to Laurel (also CdG).

The new Eau Noire is so too quiet, it has lost all its darkness… I was so sad about it that I brought the old one before it disappeared 😭

Superb

I think this is going to be a limited edition, I have read somewhere.
