Poivre Electrique

Poivre Electrique delivers a remarkably true-to-life pepper note, opening with bold black and pink pepper that dominate the initial impression—green, vibrant, and herbaceous, slightly less abrasive than pure pepper oil. The scent warms into a refined, woody-resinous dry down featuring cedar, sandalwood, olibanum, and a soft, earthy rose tone, creating a smooth and balanced transition. While the structure is linear, the coherence and refinement of the accords give it a clean, masculine elegance suitable for evening wear or cooler months. It performs modestly—moderate sillage and moderate longevity—fading within a few hours, though some users report feeling the scent persist for up to eight hours on skin and clothing. This fragrance appeals most to enthusiasts of spicy, woody, incense-like scents who appreciate a bold yet wearable pepper-centered profile. It functions best as a layering scent or as a daring solo choice for those willing to embrace its strong top note. It is praised for its balanced composition, though it lacks the longevity and projection of comparable fragrances like Comme des Garçons Black Pepper, and is seen as underperforming relative to its price point.
