Question:
what other fragrances remind you of Noir Epices?

Answer:
Rousse has some similar elements, clove, hot pepper, sandalwood, amber... but Rousse is way more on the cinamon side, also has notes of mandarin and violet, it 's more feminine and sensual too, Noir Epices is colder, "a black rose on a grave".
I m sure theres something closer to Noir Epices than Rousse but I don 't really see unless you try Poivre but this one is more perfumey.

Answer:
I agree completely with JdG. When I'm in a very cold, gothic sort of mood, Noir Epices is perfect. Rousse is very playful, but they do share many notes. NE is more aldehydic, in my opinion, and much colder.
