Ferrari Black (1999)
by Ferrari

Very much inspired by Boss No 6. I prefer the Boss out of the two as the Ferrari is cruder, and perhaps cheaper, smelling, containing this metallic/synthetic note, as other reviewers have mentioned already, which was not very pleasant to me also.

If one is looking for a cheaper alternative to, or a variation on Boss Bottled, a Boss Bottled flanker so to speak, this might be worth checking out.

Rose and fruits on a bed of woodsy creams and suede. It's not bad. I don't detect the metal, i perceive a sort of leathery smell when the dry down is settled. It's like to smell a foam due to refine the wood. It's surely a synthetical smell. The dry down is pleasant with its amber-vanilla accord and with a notable presence of musk. The outcome is very smooth, creamy with nuances of suede, flowers, fruits and mild wood. Longevity and sillage are in the average.

Maybe the automobile connection is that this would make a good dangly car mirror air freshener.
Synthetic, metallic, sweet, cheap, irritating.

Very synthetic metallic scent. To call this fragrance black is a joke. Sillage is pityful and it lasts less than 2 hours. If you must buy a Ferrari fragrance go with Ferrari Red. I've actually tried giving this away to no avail. I think I'm going to use it as an air freshner for my car.

I actually blind purchased this fragrance off what a friend had told be about it. After smelling it, i was very suprised. It has very similar note break-down with Boss #6 (Boss Bottled). The lime and plum makes it a bit more fruity smelling, and a bit less sweet than Boss #6. Great longevity and projection. It also has a bit of a metallic note, possibly from the alluminum bottle? I'm not sure. But if you liked Boss' #6, i would highly recommend this fragrance.

Why Black?? why is it for man?
i think it should be unisex. So sweet, and base note is a little spicy.
