Miller Harris Étui Noir Eau de Parfum 100ml Spray is an enthralling leather-and-iris fragrance from the British perfume house Miller Harris, launched in 2016 and composed by perfumer Mathieu Nardin. The composition opens on a chord of Italian bergamot, tangerine and elemi gum; melts into a heart of Moroccan iris butter, incense, cashmere wood and styrax; and dries down on a refined base of Indonesian patchouli, Haitian vetiver, leather, amber, birch and labdanum.

The story behind Étui Noir

"Étui Noir" — French for "black case" — sets the conceptual tone of the fragrance: refined, dressed-up and quietly mysterious. The bergamot and tangerine opening adds a bright, polished lift; the iris-butter heart softens the leather with a powdery elegance; and the patchouli, vetiver and birch base extend the trail into a deep, smoky finish typical of Miller Harris' leather-leaning niche compositions.

Who it's for

Suited to wearers who love refined, leather-and-iris niche fragrances — fans of Tom Ford Tuscan Leather, Frédéric Malle Iris Poudre or Le Labo Patchouli 24 will find Étui Noir a familiar match. Year-round wear with particular strength in autumn and winter; ideal for evening, dressed-up daytime and refined occasion use.

How to wear it

1. Spray onto pulse points — wrists, base of the throat, behind the ears — from around 15cm.
2. Two to three sprays for daytime; build up gently for evening wear.
3. Apply over an unscented body lotion to extend longevity on skin.
