Reports disagree about the extent or effects of changes to Encre Noire Eau de Toilette.

Some bottle comparisons describe a cleaner, quieter recent scent, while other current owners report all-day wear. Company-name changes, alcohol percentages and differing web ingredient lists do not establish a dated reformulation. Some wearers report intermittent wafts after initially finding the scent weak. No authenticated pair of complete labels resolves the disagreement.

A batch code alone does not establish which formula is in a bottle.

If you need to check a particular bottle, ask Lalique or the retailer about its batch code and product details. Comparisons between bottles are not confirmation from the manufacturer.
