I give up trying to argue. Today I was testing perfumes and the sales associate showed me White in Black; it was like hitting my nose with a synthetic disco hormone, something I wouldn’t even want to smell after a cup of coffee. I keep a comparative list of current men’s fragrances to see which one stands out as elegant and pleasant for everyone, regardless of age. It’s very hard. The opening has a strong citrus ambroxan imprint where the olibanum isn’t easily noticeable. The development revolves around ambroxan, leaving a mix of lavender, cedar, and patchouli to fight it out. I sensed this scent, or something very similar, years ago from a neighbor who flooded the elevator. I think it’s masculine by today’s standards, just as much as the competing fragrances. The plus is that it’s not sweet and lacks that sugary, plastic lab vibe. Longevity and projection are just as good as Sauvage Elixir, Scandal, Invictus, etc. Like with any perfume, there’s a chance of receiving compliments that boost your ego and make you stand out, for better or worse. It’s a good option to stand out with your scent.
I must point out that I’m unable to break down notes in any perfume unless it’s lemon, peach, or strawberry; everything else is either rich or not for me. White in Black is rich, slightly sweet, and half-mentholated. The scent is very good and for the price, it offers more than you pay. They say it’s like Layton, but I don’t know what that smells like. I bought it blind like all my perfumes and won again, though it’s hard to go wrong with this brand. If you know Layton and compare them, you’ll probably find this one lacking, but I rate it on what it is: for me, an excellent cologne even if it doesn’t last as long, but I just reapply and the problem is solved. Should I recommend it? I don’t know, do what you want with your money, and if you buy it, you’ll surely get a pleasant surprise. For me, it’s a 10 out of 10. Cheers.
What a great job this girl, Karine Dubreuil-Sereni, did! She really put in the effort to create something unique, added her talent, studied the market, and avoided being such a clone. Although it has an exquisite facet like Layton Parfum by Marly, this one has its own soul and transforms into a little-known gem. The box came with a black and white-tipped ‘make your mark’ pencil from Lalique, perfect for customizing the bottle.
Let’s start by saying it smells 90-95% like Layton. What’s the difference? Layton smells more mentholated and sweet due to the apple. It lasts half as long and costs under $50. Let’s forget about whether it’s a clone or a Galloway payback. It’s a good alternative; Lalique makes great fragrances with quality ingredients. It projects for an hour and lingers 5-6 hours on skin, nothing a reapplication can’t solve. I’d buy it again to save my Layton and smell the same. No regrets.
Wow! I was surprised by this fragrance, totally inspired by Layton, 95% identical. On the opening it’s a bit less mentholated and more citrusy, but it has less sillage and projection. For the price, it’s a steal, and I see it as more versatile than Layton.
Beautiful fragrance. Starts with citrus and evolves into an avianilla and lavender touch. It’s sensual, an aroma you don’t want to stop smelling. Great price compared to Layton. To me, it smells like Invictus Victory but more citrusy. Worth it, I recommend it.
I jumped in blind, trusting the glowing reviews and the similarity to Parfums de Marly’s Layton. It has incredible depth and longevity, a perfect balance between sweet and citrus, very complex with tons of nuances. It’s beautifully crafted, doesn’t smell like a drugstore product, and the quality is top-notch.
Buy blind based on the good reviews and the attributed resemblance to Parfums de Marly Layton. It has excellent depth and fixation, slightly sweet and citrusy, complex and full of nuances. Very well executed, doesn’t smell mass-produced, great quality.
The opening is rich, but it didn’t last at all, barely 2 hours. I don’t know if it’s because of the spring here in the US or what. I’ll try it in summer to see how it behaves there; I’ll update this review or confirm if it works better, I’ll let you know.
As already mentioned, it’s inspired by Layton (it’s speculated it was a ‘revenge’ by Lalique after the Galloway by PdM, though coincidence or not, it has a certain resemblance to Lalique White but improved). Without saying White in Black is bad, simply it doesn’t measure up to Layton: the longevity, sillage, and projection are half, and the scent is less three-dimensional, simpler, perhaps with lower-quality ingredients. Do I recommend buying it? Depends on the price. At the 34.95€ I paid, yes, it’s a good buy. At the usual 40€, also yes. But at the 80€ I see now or the official 110€, I can’t recommend it: for double the price, you get the original, with better performance (you need fewer sprays of Layton) and higher quality.
Excellent fragrance, a sweet and vanilla aroma that should be in your collection. 10/10, 97% similarity to a great perfume 😉
Undoubtedly, it’s a blatant and brutal inspiration, over 85% similar to Marly depending on the heat. The key: Lalique has toasted cardamom, so it’s not as sweet and heavy as Marly. What a wave. I recommend it: on clothes it lasts +12h, on skin about 9 hours.
It’s one of my top 10 out of the 150 perfumes I own. Superior ingredients: rich, distinguished, casual, timeless, sexy, sober, distinct… the only downside is it took me a couple of years to find it in Chile, but at a price well below what it could cost. It’s worn all year, even summer nights; I love it. Best for those over 25.
The quality-to-price ratio makes Layton look ridiculous.
I haven’t tried Layton, but this smells like a marvel. Decent performance, not a beast. I notice a certain resemblance to Guerlain’s L’homme Ideal line, I don’t know if anyone else feels that. The truth is, the quality is superlative.

Excellent quality for the price. Dries down to an almost exact clone of Layton, though it lasts and projects less. Layton’s opening is sparklier with apple, violet, and jasmine; when dry, both share cardamom, cedar, patchouli, and vanilla. Behind this is Karine Dubreuil-Sereni, who already collaborated with Hamid Merati-Kashani (the creator of Layton PDM). The rest is said: versatile across seasons and clothes. You never look bad in it, and it usually pleases everyone. When I finish my 2017 Layton, I’ll grab this Lalique White in Black. A 10/10.
Excellent value for money. Almost a carbon copy of Layton, especially in its dry down, though with worse longevity and projection. Layton’s opening is more sparkling with apple as the protagonist, accompanied by violet and jasmine. In the dry down, both stand out for the combo of cardamom, cedar/guaiac wood, patchouli, and vanilla. Behind this fragrance is Karine Dubreuil-Sereni, who previously collaborated with Hamid Merati-Kashani (creator of Layton PDM). Everything else is said: versatility across seasons and outfits. You will NEVER look bad, and generally, it’s liked. As soon as my Layton (Batch 2017) runs out, I’ll go for this Lalique White in Black. A 10/10.
To those who claim Layton lasts longer, I’m referring to old batches; current ones are just decent. Watch out, they aren’t the same: Layton has that sweet apple note that’s missing here, while Lalique carries resins and incense with a warmth Layton lacks. Without the apple, the citrus shines brighter. Ultimately, it’s personal taste: I own several Marlys and never bought Layton because it didn’t convince me for the price. I prefer this one. I’m not saying it’s better, but it feels more masculine—less sweet, darker with the resins. I don’t see it on girls. It’s a beast of a fragrance at a ridiculous price, and I appreciate that Lalique’s line comes in 125ml bottles.
