In Black (2005)
by J del Pozo

As usual Jesus del Pozo offers an interesting, creative, and impressive fragrance. CoL’s right, I, too, get some TF Black Orchid vibes from this: The main difference, though, is that I like this one and I do not like Black Orchid. In Black opens with a gourmand note… sweet, rosy and a bit foody, which soon changes to fruity sweet and floral. It is rather difficult for me to distinguish the particular floral notes… it’s such an abundant bouquet. The drydown is sweet and woody, with patchouli and vanilla most in evidence on my skin. In Black is a real sleeper – a fun fragrance that seems not very well known. I don’t find it especially feminine – it’s more unisex. In Black is typical of J, del Pozo’s offerings: It is unique and edgy, it’s nicely put together, and it projects well. However, in this case, it doesn’t have the best longevity.

Amazing, sexy, hot. I can't believe I haven't tried it before. Again, I bought it online without any idea about it because there was a deal and its bottle seemed fancy. My husband and I fell in love in the first second we smelled it. It has good lasting power. The only problem I have with this one is the old style perfume bottle. So it has two types of bottle. One is like the old times perfume bottle, I don't know its name. The other one is an ordinary spray bottle. I have the old style perfume bottle, I bought three old style bottles, two were for my sister and sister-in-law. None of them seemed working good. You can spray the perfume, but you need to spray more than you usually do, because it sprays air most of the time. Other than that, the scent is really really great. Sweet, but not like overdose sugar sweet. It is amazingly sexy. But definitely not for those. who adores flowery scents. To sum up, one of my favorite five.

Does anyone else get a strong sense of TF Black Orchid from this? Mainly the top notes but it does settle into something similar if more "mainstream".

Amazing stuff! At a tenth of the price of Black Orchid too!

as a man, i felt in love with the smooth deepness of that one. very sensual red grapes surround you during the dry down. whether it is a women fragrance or not, i am gonna wear it.

Fado scent on my skin. Melancholy, sadness, plus something fake, unnatural. Sugar-coated black cherry on top, then cedar, violets and patch. Great bottle, though!

A really fun and nice perfume, this one makes me happy! One of the few perfumes I decided to get by the first sniff, and the love holds on. The bottle is very nice, too, and protekt the fluid from light, so it can stand on my chest of drawers, witch is an extra plus.
