Lamar Noir

Lamar Noir by Kajal is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with bergamot, green apple and violet, moves into vanilla, caramel, geranium and rose and dries down to leather, oud, guaiac wood, sandalwood, cashmere wood and musk. Expect around 9 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.

Notes, explained

Opening

Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
Green Apple Tart, crunchy and sharp. Cleaner and cooler than red apple.
Violet Powdery, sweet and a bit retro. Parma Violets in flower form.

Heart

Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
Caramel Burnt sugar. Rich, sticky and unapologetically sweet.
Geranium Rosy and minty at once. Reads masculine more often than not.
Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.

Dry-down

Leather Smoky, dry and a bit animal. Can be a new jacket or an old saddle.
Oud Resinous, medicinal, barnyard-adjacent wood. The most expensive note in perfumery.
Guaiac Wood Smoky, tarry and slightly sweet. Like a bonfire and roses.
Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
Cashmere Wood Soft, fuzzy, slightly musky wood. Adds a blurred warmth.
Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
