About Black Mandarin
Black Mandarin: A Bright Oriental from Les Folies Du Parfum
Black Mandarin, the latest fragrance from Les Folies Du Parfum, arrives in 2026 as an oriental scent created for both men and women. Its name captures the contrast between sparkling mandarin and deeper, resinous materials.
The composition opens with citrus and spice, moves through a balsamic heart, and settles into a base of suede and oud. It's sweet, ambered, and noticeably rich.
Top notes of mandarin, saffron, and candied fruit create a vivid opening. The mandarin adds brightness, while saffron brings a warm spicy edge and the candied fruit rounds it out with a soft, sugary touch.
The heart blends myrrh, rose, and cashmere wood. This combination feels warm and resinous, with just enough floral presence to keep the fragrance smooth and elegant.
At the base, suede and oud wood take over. Suede provides a supple leather texture, while oud contributes a deep, slightly smoky woodiness, giving the scent a lingering trail.
Recognized accords include sweet, amber, warm spicy, leather, citrus, rose, oud, musky, fruity, and woody. The range gives Black Mandarin a layered personality that reveals itself over time.
Early feedback shows a rating of 4.33 out of 5, based on three reviews so far — a strong start for this new release.
Those who enjoy sweet, amber-forward orientals with a woody backbone, whether male or female, and want a confident scent for evenings or colder months.
Black Mandarin is an impressive new release for Les Folies Du Parfum. From its mandarin-and-saffron opening to its suede-and-oud finish, it offers a balanced, characterful experience that deserves a skin test.
