Why do I like these perfumes?

I am new to the world of base and top notes and was hoping someone could tell me why I like these fragrances:
- Jasmin Noir by Bulgari
- Crystal Noir by Versace
- Her (black bottle) by Narciso Rodriguez

As the bottle colour (black) and names (noir) suggest, there must be a note these perfumes all have in common. Can someone tell me which ones they are - and which other perfumes I may like?

I also like Crystalline by Bulgari - again similar in name to Crystal Noir by Versace!

Thank you for enlightening me - have been wondering about this for a while!

It looks like you're sensitive to bottles and especially the color. Crystal Noire and for Her both contain Amber, but it's probally black that does the job for you.

Might they all share the quality of light/airy/"crystaline" musk with soft woods in the base?

The mystery thing could be indoles: Bulgari contains jasmine indoles, Versace has a gardenia indole and the Rodriguez has musky indoles.
