A passionate declaration of love written in ink and blood. The scent opens on a dark, almost smoky red rose, pierced with crimson sparks. Metallic aldehydes emerge, adding tension and intensity. Dense magnolia adds a sweaty sweetness. The opoponax warms and deepens the whole, leaving a profound, mysterious signature.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
This is a rose for an evening conversation that has stopped being polite: intimate, deliberate and edged with tension. Its smoky petals and metallic bite suggest affection with something unresolved beneath it, a presence that feels sensual without becoming soft.
How to wear
Start with one or two sprays on skin, allowing the dense floral-resinous composition room to unfold. Cool weather is a natural fit for its smoky woods and warm opoponax; in warm rooms, a lighter application should keep magnolia’s sultry sweetness from dominating.
Who it’s for
For those drawn to dark roses, smoky resins and the dramatic structure of vintage-style floral chypres. It suits a taste for metallic edges, woody depth and sensual florals that resist prettiness rather than leaning into it.

2025
The nose
Bertrand Duchaufour is known for compositions that combine incense, woods and resins with striking contrasts of texture and light. His work includes Comme des Garçons Avignon and L’Artisan Parfumeur Timbuktu and Dzongkha. In Ensang Noir, he brings that affinity for smoke and shadow to a rose composition, setting floral richness against metallic aldehydes and an ink-like darkness.
L'Entropiste’s story
L’Entropiste takes entropy as a creative principle: beauty emerges through imbalance, conflict and transformation. With Bertrand Duchaufour as its “Master of Disorder,” the house pursues compositions in which contrasting materials move from harmony through disruption toward a new equilibrium.
Ensang Noir’s concept
Ensang Noir was conceived as an intense, enduring declaration of love written in ink and blood. These are narrative images, translated into a smoky red rose, metallic tension and black-ink effects. Magnolia lends a bodily sweetness, while incense and opoponax give the romantic theme a darker, resinous depth.
Extra info
Ensang Noir joined L’Entropiste’s collection as its seventh fragrance. The house specifies a 25% concentration and a refillable bottle made in France. The blood in its love-letter imagery is a narrative device, not a stated ingredient.
