Black
Fragrance notes
Character
Black opens with bergamot, clary sage, and pineapple. The citrus is bright and the sage adds an herbal edge, while the pineapple brings a soft fruitiness that does not dominate. The heart moves into jasmine, tonka bean, orchid, and lily. The white florals feel smooth and a little powdery, with the tonka bean adding a gentle sweetness that bridges the top and the base. The accord is aromatic and floral at once, leaning sweet but never heavy.
The base rests on musk, sandalwood, Virginia cedar, vanilla, and leather. The leather is present and masculine, supported by the creaminess of sandalwood and the dry structure of cedar. Vanilla and musk round it out, keeping the finish warm and close to the skin. The overall impression is woody, powdery, and quietly spicy, with the leather giving it a firm character. It fits a cold night out in the city, when the air is sharp and the streets are lit by streetlamps. A man who likes his scent to feel composed and a little reserved will find what he wants here.
