Mon Jasmin Noir by Bvlgari

Just finished it and I absolutely loved it, even though I didn’t detect any marzipan or sweetness. It was a floral, fresh, and green scent on my skin. Like all of Bvlgari: a subtle elegance. It lasted through my workday, about 6 to 8 hours, fading until it sat close to the skin and lingered more on my clothes. Moderate projection. In the first few hours, if I had to return to a room I’d been in, I could still smell it there.

Years ago, I bought a 10 ml travel size to try this discontinued fragrance, hoping it would resemble Mon Jasmin Noir Eau Exquise. The truth is, it wasn’t similar at all, as the latter is much sweeter and fresher. This perfume opens with a very citrusy note, but that doesn’t last more than 5 minutes; afterward, the bergamota gives way to jasmine, marzipan (or whatever they imagine it to be, since it doesn’t smell like real marzipan), woods, and musk. As it dries down, cedar takes the spotlight, which is why many say it’s masculine: depending on the weather and skin pH, there were days when its dry-down even smelled a bit like sweat to me. Projection is moderate and it doesn’t last more than 6 hours on my skin. It’s a nice fragrance, very feminine at times and bordering on masculine at others, looking great for day or night in any season. Its discontinuation doesn’t bother me. In fact, after using it a couple of times, I got bored and sold it. Pleasant: 7/10, Interesting: 7/10, Versatile: 8/10, Original: 7/10.

It’s a supremely pleasant perfume; I perceive it as a floral gourmand with a moderate to wide trail and long-lasting performance on my skin. Jasmine dominates with the marzipan, creating a feminine, sensual, and warm touch. It can be worn in any climate or season, though I prefer it for special occasions due to that unique aroma combination. To me, it’s an olfactory jewel I’ll definitely buy again; I consider it extremely feminine and seductive.

Very, very masculine! It was just like a perfume my brother had.

It’s an adorable perfume; it smells of sweet white flowers, very feminine, works for day and night, overflowing with elegance. It has become my new favorite; I’m captivated by this warm blend of my beloved jasmine with a subtle marzipan on a soft woody base. I also consider it a modern all-rounder. The little bottle is gorgeous too. Truly, it’s very recommended if you want elegance, distinction, and refined simplicity all at once. It’s a delight!

I’m sorry I can’t give a good review. I was gifted this and appreciated the gesture, but I loved the Eau Exquise version, not MJN. It turns out to be extremely strong and cloyingly sweet; the freshness and delicacy of the jasmine get lost in all that nougat-like sweetness. It gives me terrible headaches and lasts forever. It’s surely a must-have for those who want to make a bold statement, but for people like me who seek elegance and discretion, it’s not an option. The bottle, however, is beautiful and distinguished.

Delicious. A very subtle and elegant floral. The citrus notes stand out at first before giving way to the floral, which I love.

I only have the sample and honestly, I don’t like it at all. It’s too strong for me; smelling it reminds me of a 70-year-old lady who prefers potent scents. I think it’s made for that type of woman (who should probably wear something fresher for her age). Also, I imagine a rather unfriendly and pedantic person, I don’t know why. The cedar note is very strong, and the nougat with the jasmine… no, it just doesn’t work.

I stumbled upon this gorgeous bottle at a perfume shop and was instantly captivated by the elegance of the glass. After asking the sales associate to let me try it, I fell in love immediately. The opening is delicate: pure jasmine, very natural with a touch of valley lily, fresh, sweet, and elegant. It settles perfectly over time. It doesn’t have a huge trail, but it has great longevity; I could still smell it on my skin after 6 hours. It’s for any woman who wants to feel secure, elegant, and sophisticated. I love it!

A very elegant and feminine fragrance. The jasmine blends with the lily of the valley, with the former being more intense. The musk gives it a special silkiness. It evokes freshness, spring, etc.

Very feminine and elegant, ideal for all ages and for daily wear. It has good longevity, so I recommend it.

Exquisite. It evolves over time: at first it’s sophisticated, but after two or three hours, the jasmine really shines through. I love it.

Total surprise. Although I rarely like jasmine, this one has multiple phases: fresh at first, then sweet and elegant, with a good sillage. I give it an 8/10.
