As the successor to Lalique’s iconic 2006 fragranceEncre Noire, the market warmly welcomesENCRE NOIRE À L’EXTRÊME—an intensely masculine iteration that has been available since October 2015. Its design pays homage to the renowned "Encrier" (inkwell) created by René Lalique in 1913, a piece that inspired the packaging of the originalEncre Noireas well as its subsequent variants:Encre Noire Pour Elle(2009) andEncre Noire Sport(2013). After previous interpretations that leaned lighter and more "sporty" relative to the original scent, this latest edition shifts focus to a rich, concentrated woody fusion of cypress and vetiver.
