Al Haramain Junoon Noir - Arabian Perfume for Women - Floral Fragrance with Notes of Kumquat, Lime, Jasmine, Vanilla, Musk, Cedar - Arabic Long Lasting Femme Scent - Eau de Parfum - 2.5 oz EDP Spray

I had heard amazing things about this fragrance for a while but was hesitant to take the plunge. As anyone who indulges in blind buying knows, it’s a gamble that can often lead to disappointment. However, after much deliberation, I decided to go for it and ordered the full bottle—and let me tell you, it completely exceeded my expectations. This fragrance is stunningly beautiful, almost ethereal in its composition.As a devoted fan of Dama Bianca (a fragrance I personally consider a masterpiece), I was initially skeptical about meeting its supposed sister/cousin. To my delight, Junoon Noir holds its own. It’s not a 1:1 dupe of Dama Bianca, but they’re remarkably close. Upon researching, I discovered their notes differ by just one—Junoon Noir features an additional malt note. Despite this small difference, their similarities are undeniable. Both have a sweet, rosy profile, though Junoon leans slightly sweeter.Packaging:The bottle itself is as elegant as the fragrance inside. Its sleek and minimal design gives it a luxurious feel, making it a beautiful addition to any vanity or collection. The weight and detail of the bottle also hint at quality far beyond its price point.Performance (Sillage, Longevity, and Projection):Junoon Noir delivers moderate performance on my skin. While it doesn’t fall into the “beast mode” category for me, others have claimed otherwise. Its projection sits at about arm’s length, which is perfect for those who prefer their fragrance to make a gentle but noticeable statement rather than announcing itself from across the room. When I compared it directly with Dama Bianca, Junoon slightly edged it out in both sillage and longevity—and at such an accessible price point, it is hard to resist.Fragrance Evolution:From the first spray, Junoon Noir opens with a sweet, rosy profile reminiscent of Dama Bianca, but as it dries down, the malt note begins to shine. This gives the fragrance a smooth and slightly creamy depth, making it feel unique even alongside its more famous counterpart. The sweetness softens over time, leaving behind an elegant, warm finish.Who Might Like This:Junoon Noir is perfect for anyone who loves soft, sweet florals with an elegant, feminine touch. Whether you’re just starting your fragrance journey, exploring Middle Eastern scents, or already have an extensive collection, this fragrance has something to offer. It’s versatile enough for both seasoned collectors and newcomers.Value and Versatility:Junoon Noir is an incredible value for what it offers. Its quality, performance, and similarity to high-end fragrances make it a standout in its price range. It transitions effortlessly between day and night and works across seasons. I see this as a versatile choice for a variety of occasions—date nights, workdays (with a light touch), casual outings, or even special events.

I'm so glad I purchased this. Normally , I'm a gourmand perfume girly but I wanted to expand on the world of scents and perfumery. This was a blind buy for me and what a wonderful surprise it was. Junoon Noir Elixir is not at all a fruity gourmand but instead it is a beautiful, exquisite, expensive light floral perfume . Nostalgia comes over me for some reason that I can't explain but it's absolutely perfect. If you are like me and are wanting to expand your scent profile, then this is a perfect blind buy for you. It's not overpowering at all. It's beautiful and I'm definitely going to get me a backup bottle!

Good perfume but doesn’t last long.

I like it , doesn’t last longIdk whyI like strong and last long perfume nowThis last 3 hours on my skin same on my clothes , soOr maybe i got nose blind ,

Definitely worth the hype. It has vanilla scents and it lasts for a good while. I always layer mine with the Eos vanilla cashmere. I love the bottle design and it has some sweetness to it .

Please do not buy, this product is fake, the smell is simply almost non-existent, and it does not even last 5 minutes on the skin. I want my money back

This perfume has excellent reviews and was hyped up a lot on social media, but I didn't enjoy it. I get a lot of baby powder scent, which is not very sexy. It doesn't give off an expensive or luxurious vibe. And the seller DOES NOT ACCEPT RETURNS, so be careful.

This is an exact dupe of Dama Bianca!! Longevity and projection are even better than the OG!! You get an ethereal vanilla that has soft and delicate florals with musk and sandalwood!!
