Duel לעומת Encre Noire

Duel by Goutal receives minimal but positive attention in this community discussion. One user explicitly states enthusiasm for the fragrance when sampling, though the broader Goutal house receives limited commentary. The fragrance appears suitable for warm weather and fresh scent preferences, though detailed community consensus is limited.

The r/fragrance community views Encre Noire as an excellent value niche fragrance with distinctive character, praised for its woody, cypress-driven composition and quality at its price point. However, it's highly polarizing due to its dark, dry, and uncompromising nature that appeals primarily to fragrance enthusiasts rather than mass audiences. The flankers (Sport and A L'Extreme) offer more wearable alternatives while the original remains the most character-driven option.
