Celine Black Tie released in 2019, as part of the new Haute Parfumarie line from French designer Celine. "A couturier's perfume, the exact olfactory interpretation of his style in relation to fashion: his obsession with black and a tailored silhouette." A vanilla perfume that is androgynous. Inspired by lacquered satin, a dinner jacket, it has notes of white orris butter, cedar, tree moss, vanilla and musk.
Celine Black Tie is an eau de parfum, edp.
Fragrantica - "Marlene Dietrich in a tux and top hat with perfect glossy red lips sitting in a smokey nightclub owning every man in the audience but at same time radiating femininity... I don’t have the words for how under its spell this scent got me. Lasted all day."
Fragrantica - "Something about this reminds me of an old ski-club chalet that I used to attend in the Laurentians. Its a warming, inviting, rich scent of vanilla with an undercurrent of cedar which has a sort of "damp" quality, and I mean that in a positive way. It reminds me so much of that chalet."
Fragrantica - "I don’t even like iris/orris. What is this sorcery? This perfume is perfect for me, it’s everything I have been looking for."
Fragrantica - "I chased after a girl on the skytrain(subway) today to ask what perfume she was wearing and it was this. She looked annoyed that I asked her, but at least now I know about this scent"
Fragrantica - "I have been on an Iris kick lately and this one is lovely. It’s slightly gourmand but not edible. All the notes feel perfectly balanced. In my opinion, it smells similar to Guerlain’s Shalimar Iris Millesime without the sweetness of caramel but with the addition of smoke. Well done Celine."
