Fragrance Reviews by Wombat69

I decided to purchase 'Black' after reading the reviews round here, and it turned out to be a really good buy!

For me, it's a very ambiguous fragrance - in fact it seems to be the perfect olfactory equivalent of the "Necker Cube": On a casual whiff, it actually seems to convey the smell of metropolis, with the emphasis being 'burned rubber' on busy city streets. However, when concentrating, my nose immediately gathers the composition of what I consider to be its main components: vanilla, tea and jasmine.

I consider it to be a good choice for someone seeking some slightly 'unusual' fragrance. And it's also more of a 'male' scent, methinks.

I purchased this fragrance blindly after reading the reviews on this page, and I have to admit that I absolutely adore it!

Applied to my skin, the most prominent notes seem to be honey, rose and leather, with the other scents remaining in the background but adding to the overall effect.
It's an absolute delicious fragrance, and even though floral notes usually are more connected to female perfumes, this one manages to be a 'manly' one, methinks.
I detect a certain kind of solitude and loneliness within its composition: it somehow feels as if the setting sun on a melancholic evening has been condensed into a bottle of liquid.

IMHO it is a shame that this fragrance has been discontinued!
