About Black Mandarin
Black Mandarin: A Bold New Oriental by Les Folies Du Parfum
Les Folies Du Parfum introduces Black Mandarin in 2026, an oriental scent designed for both men and women. The fragrance pairs the juicy brightness of mandarin with darker, resinous contrasts.
It opens with citrus and spice, softens through a myrrh and rose heart, and finishes on suede and oud. The result is sweet, ambery and full of character.
The top notes are mandarin, saffron and candied fruits. The mandarin feels crisp and luminous, while saffron offers an immediate warmth and the candied fruit adds a pleasant gourmand sweetness.
In the middle, myrrh, rose and cashmere wood create a smooth, balsamic core. The rose keeps it refined; the myrrh introduces a gentle smokiness; the cashmere wood provides a soft, creamy texture.
Base notes of suede and oud anchor the composition. Suede brings a supple leather feel, while oud adds depth and persistence. It sits close to the skin at first, then expands into a comfortable sillage.
The accords detected include sweet, amber, warm spicy, leather, citrus, rose, oud, musky, fruity and woody. That's a broad palette, giving the fragrance plenty of nuance beyond the initial rush of mandarin.
So far, early ratings place Black Mandarin at 4.33 out of 5, based on three user reviews. A promising result for a fragrance launched in 2026.
Best suited to lovers of oriental and amber scents with a sweet side, regardless of gender, particularly for evening events and cooler weather.
Black Mandarin feels like a well-crafted introduction to the Les Folies Du Parfum line. With vivid citrus, a resinous heart and a suede-oud base, it's a perfume that asks to be discovered slowly on the skin.
