Noir Leaf


Noir Leaf opens with a fresh and slightly sweet blend of bergamot and fig, evoking the initial crispness of a freshly steeped cup of black tea. This introduction is both invigorating and comforting, reminiscent of quiet mornings with a warm brew in hand.

As the fragrance unfolds, the heart reveals a harmonious blend of bay leaves and cedarwood, adding an aromatic and woody depth that complements the tea accord. This combination conjures images of a serene tea garden, where the scent of surrounding foliage enhances the experience.

In its final embrace, Noir Leaf settles into a base of tobacco and hay, providing a warm and earthy foundation. These notes impart a subtle smokiness and dryness, reminiscent of the nuanced flavors found in aged tea leaves.

This fragrance evokes feelings of introspection and tranquility, making it ideal for those who appreciate the nuanced and layered aromas of a fine tea. It's a scent that captures the essence of a contemplative moment, perfect for when you seek a subtle yet profound olfactory experience.

Smells kinda pickled, slightly vaguely flowery and woody, slightly aromatic. A tad synthetic. Smells like olaplex, smooth blonde hair, gin-and-tonic evenings.

Customers praised this perfume as an excellent alternative to luxury fragrances, with "clean ingredients" and accurate scent replication. Shoppers noted it captures "hay/tobacco notes" and "dark woody tea smell" perfectly. While some mentioned the initial spray is "alcohol-heavy," it settles beautifully. Longevity is strong at 6+ hours with great projection. Unisex appeal.

This is my 3rd purchase from them and the 2nd time buying Noir Leaf. Great products, very clean ingredients, not the cheap synthetic scents you see often. Highly recommend this Company

Pretty Good

I just received the Noir Leaf after refilling by 3.4oz Le Labo The Noir. The scent is slightly more abrasive than The Noir but it is very close. I would say The Noir has a stronger scent, is smoother, and is what I’ll continue to purchase.
But, I was surprised at what Noir Leaf was able to accomplish at a fraction of the cost.

Finally found it

Been looking for a good clone of this for ages. most of them smell like pickles (iykyk). this one actually gets the hay/tobacco notes right. super cozy for fall.

Unisex?

Bought this for myself but my girlfriend stole it. definitely unisex. smells fresh but deep at the same time. shipping was fast too.

Misses the opening but nails the rest

The first spray is a little alcohol-heavy compared to the OG. kinda scared me at first. But give it 5 mins to settle and it is IDENTICAL to The Noir 29. that dark woody tea smell is all there.

Good dupe

I have the original on one arm and Noir Leaf on the other. Serious Elephant is a bit louder/stronger projection. The original sits closer to the skin. For the price difference this is a no brainer.

Pretty good

Lasts about 6 hours on me. The cedar comes through really nice. Not a 100% match but for 40 bucks its close enough that i dont care.

Refilled my real bottle lol

Don't judge me but I bought this and poured it into my empty Le Labo bottle. literally nobody knows. The fig note is spot on. maybe slightly sweeter dry down but honestly i prefer it over the original now.

My wallet is happy

Used to drop $300+ on this scent. never again. this gets me the same compliments for like 10% of the cost. longevity is actually better than the current formulation of the real thing.

The Elephant in the Lab "We charge for the liquid, not the legend."

Growing up in the factory, we learned one thing: molecules don't have logos. As a couple-founded team with deep manufacturing roots, we’ve seen the industry's 'elephant in the room': the 95% markup.

Leveraging our family's forensic labs, Serious Elephant recreates the exact sensory experience you love, stripping away the gatekeeping so you only pay for the craft.

Free Sample Included

We all hate blind buying.

We know how scary it is to buy a fragrance online without smelling it first. We hate blind buying too.

That's why for every full bottle you order, we include a free 1ml roll on sample of that same fragrance.

How it works:

  1. Open the free sample first.
  2. Test drive the fragrance on for a few days.
  3. If you don't love it, keep the full bottle sealed.
  4. Return the unopened bottle for full credit. No questions asked.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is it so close to the original? +

We use Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) to map the molecular DNA of the vintage and original batches, creating an exact chemical mirror. Then, we hire an expert 'nose' to reassemble the formula and ensure the artistry, nuance, and balance match the original masterpiece perfectly.

If you use the same ingredients, why is it so much cheaper? +

The liquid in a luxury bottle typically costs under $40 to make. You are saving money because we don't pay for celebrity endorsements, crystal bottles, expensive marketing campaigns, or department store markups.

Where do you source your raw materials? +

Because of our established industry connections, we source our aroma chemicals and naturals from the same top-tier suppliers in Grasse, France, that supply the major luxury fragrance houses.

Are your products safe to use? +

Absolutely. Our products are Colorant & UV Filter Free, Paraben & Phthalate Free, and Vegan & Cruelty Free.

What is the oil concentration? +

We bottle at the same high concentration as the luxury originals (typically Eau De Parfum 15% or higher) to ensure richness and depth.

How long does the scent last? +

Due to the high oil concentration and quality ingredients, you can expect excellent longevity—often up to 8 hours on skin and days on clothing, frequently outperforming modern reformulations of the originals.

Is this legal? +

Yes. Scent recipes cannot be copyrighted (only brand names and bottle designs can), so recreating the liquid formula is 100% legal.

Do you offer samples? +

We understand that blind-buying a fragrance can feel risky. That's why every full-size 30 ml bottle comes with a free 1 ml sample of the same scent. You can use the sample first to decide if the fragrance suits you—without opening the sealed full-size bottle.

What if I don't like the scent? +

We include a free sample with each full bottle purchase so you can try it before opening the full bottle. If the sample doesn't meet your expectations or match the inspiration as promised, you can return the unopened bottle for a full credit, no questions asked.

What is your return policy? +

We happily accept returns for full-size fragrances that remain in their original seal and packaging, are unused, and are in 'good as new' condition.

Are you legit? +

Yes. We have tens of thousands of happy customers and operate physical retail locations. We are a small, family-run business passionate about making high-quality fragrance accessible to everyone.
