I love Drakkar Noir for its awesome shaving foam vibe, smells so good. And its woody and leathery, and fresh and crisp. Drakkar Noir is the absolute balls 💈🧼💪

I don´t know if it has been mentioned here before but the original version is DRAKKAR from 1972 and NOT Drakkar Noir from 1982. Therefore it should be compared to the Drakkar´72, which is very rare and hard to get.

He literally said that in the video

Great intro with the air raid siren and insight on them purchasing both asap

The intro was very funny..your posts are on point and I like that you feature older and classic fragrances...Thank you sir...

I'm a huge Drakkar Noir fan and still wear it till this day so I naturally blind bought the latest Drakkar Intense. Let me just say it's a big disappointment for me because to my nose, it smells absolutely nothing alike! I guess I had too much expectation that it would smell like DN and perhaps it was my fault for having such high hopes.

great vid, subbed and i cant wait to get my bottle.

Current Lapidus has a pretty harsh opening. Drydown is wearable. Funny intro and DN is really good. As for the Intense I don't know, I'm kind of pleased with my recent bottle of Pierre Cardin pM edt.

Well put, got a bottle recently for 15 quid. Blind buy and not disappointed for the money, a good easy grab nice frag 🤟🤷🏻‍♂️

What a nice Intense intro Mr. Smelly lol but my vote is for Drakkar Noir, Old school scent yeah but very manly. Live here in the Philippines and the climate is more heat days. It will last longer to my body chemistry up to 1day especially to my clothes. Give compliments around even wearing a white shirt and jeans 😄

Intro was hilarious! Love your work Mr. Smelly. The production just gets better and better.

Thank you so much MAJ!

Unfortunately, you have tested a counterfeit version of this classic perfume DRAKKAR NOIR. Around 2020, this cheap imitation of DRAKKAR NOIR was sold for a short time in many perfumeries and drugstores in Germany. The original perfume is currently being offered again. I got it today - and now I'm very happy. .......................... Very important: You can recognize the imitation because the "P" of PARIS is very close to the "Y" of GUY. You show this bottle in the video. In the original bottle, the "P" is more spaced to the right. Please be sure to get this version!

For me personally, I have to give it to the Intense. I love the original, I think it still smells really good, but it doesn't last very long and it's also very much a product of it's time. Intense is longer lasting and stronger, and it's far more approachable for younger people. I'm in my 30s, this is a perfect 30 year old working class man's night out fragrance whereas I think Noir is much more for guys in their 50s, even though I wear it sometimes and enjoy it. I'm loving the Intense ATM, I think it's pretty damn fantastic for the price. Reminds me a lot of Aramis Special Blend, but with the Drakkar Noir DNA instead of the Aramis DNA.

no matter the weather your reviews always make me laugh. :) i had this i think in early 90s but was reformulated somewhat, I'm still looking for an original. but will try this. i think its very unique and confidence to pull it of.

I absolutely love this scent, but to me it is way too weak for a scent that is supposed to be an eau de parfum concentration. It also doesn't last that long even as a skin scent. Oh well, it's cheap and smells great.

Great review and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try it and have a blessed night

So hard to find in the US

I wonder...did Guy Laroche anticipate the drama...Noir flanker or not? You convinced me - it's probably not a flanker of Drakkar. However, I'm not convinced it's a flanker of Noir. Is there a 3rd possibility?

It's a copy of the Original Drakkar from I believe the 70's

Drakkar Intense for the W

Drakkar Noir is deeply mentholated. I would assume that the new Intense flanker is not nearly as mentholated? UPDATE: Got my bottle and test wore. No, not mentholated but there is a BIT of detectable Drakkar Noir DNA detectable in the background. All in all I'm a bit disappointed. Its OK, but I'm a little disappointed in the scent profile and very disappointed in the performance. It'll be nothing more than an OK Office Scent for me.

Hola ¡Qué curioso! Todos hablan de Drakkar Intense pero Guy Laroche no reconoce ni desconoce eate lanzamiento, por lo que es imposible adquirirla en un establecimiento formal, propiciando y alimentando la piraterìa. En México es imposible. Algunos youtubers, recomiendan comprar en tiendas pirata, otros venden ellos mismos, pero se abastecen en estas tiendas. A ambos los conoces. DIGAMOS NOOO A LA PIRATERIA... existen tiendas que venden al mismo precio con garantìa de satisfacción y facturan sin aumentar el precio.

It's all Chinese knockoffs. Interpol and US border patrol have seized around 300 kilos of Drakkar. Poor people that have to smuggle it their bodies so this demand can be met.

My FAVORITE English dude!!! Im 57 and I grew up weaned on Drakkar Noir... Drakkar Intense is like an UN-finished handjob ! What an utter let down

If I could save some dude $20 I will let me say that this perfume is absolutely straight garbage. I grew up on the original OG I have been using it on and off for 35 years. It was the "Intense" labeling that convinced me to buy it. It is IMPOTENT an absolutely worthless. It is by far the singular worst bottle in my entire collection. You have to waste half a bottle just to get half a scent. It is weak and has absolutely no projection. This is the equivalent of An unfinished handjob. Guys don't spend your $20 on this. Everyone in my perfume collective circle agrees this has been a complete and utter waste. What is disappointment. I absolutely loved Drakkar Noir.... This has been one of the biggest failures of 2024.😢 Beware all these KZread Hype Artists😂😂😂😂
