Note Breakdown:

  • Top Notes: Spicy cardamom, zesty ginger, juicy mandarin orange, delicate neroli, and vibrant citruses create an electrifying and daring opening, igniting the senses with bold energy and an alluring intensity that sets a tone of mysterious confidence and magnetic sophistication.
  • Heart Notes: Creamy kulfi, luxurious Bulgarian rose, sweet orange blossom, and lush jasmine add indulgent depth and floral elegance, infusing the fragrance with a touch of romantic richness and seductive intrigue that draws you deeper into its captivating embrace.
  • Base Notes: Sweet vanilla, supple leather, velvety suede, glowing amber, nutty tonka bean, smoky guaiac wood, and warm cedar deliver a lingering trail of opulent indulgence and profound sensuality, ensuring a lasting impression that's irresistibly addictive and profoundly luxurious.
How to wear it

Spray two or three times on pulse points: wrists, neck and behind the ears. Extrait is concentrated, so a little goes a long way. Let it settle rather than rubbing it in.

Shipping

Orders ship within 24–48 hours (excluding weekends and holidays) by USPS Ground. Orders of $50 or more ship free; smaller orders pay a flat rate. We currently ship within the US only.

Fragrance is personal

Because scent is so personal, we can’t accept returns based on fragrance preference. That’s why every scent comes in a 10ml try size. If your order arrives damaged, defective or incorrect, contact our support team and we’ll make it right.

What “inspired by” means

Shadow Essence is Barrett’s own extrait de parfum, created to capture the character of Noir Extreme. We are not affiliated with or endorsed by the house that makes the original; its name is used only to describe the scent.
