which one do you prefer?

rubber vs. gasoline... not very similar, but my vote goes to Fahrenheit

This choice between the two is easy; get both. I could not vote because I think both are good fragrances.

On myself, I like them both. One time I sat next to someone on the train wearing BB, and it seemed heavy and oppressive. So, even though I like BB, I am worried about the impression on other people. On the other hand, Fahrenheit on other people works a lot better for me--maybe it's the violets and cedar shavings or whatever.

They're both pretty good. But, I think Fahrenheit deserves the nod simply because it is so unique and unmistakable. I haven't really given Black a good try yet, but I do think that the rubber note is a bit overemphasized.

Just can't get past the top notes of Fahrenheit yet...it's like pure gasoline to my nose.

Both are really good frags. Hard to choose. Love them both. If I had to choose, it would be Fahrenheit.

Bvlgari Black is one of my favorite fragrances and gets my vote.
post #11 of 49
gotta go with Fahrenheit...Black is nice too, but I like the individuality of Fahrenheit...although I agree with the "gasoline" comments...
post #12 of 49
Both are great fragrances but Black is definitely more unique. I don't get the "rubber" accord with black but more of a leather/vanilla blend, with the vanilla dominating in the drydown. Girls seem to love it, so it will stay in my arsenal....

I like both, but if I have to choose between them, it'll be Fahrenheit.

It so happened that my SoTD was Bulgari Black. And I was left impressed at its wearability - very smooth & not a little suave. I also noticed more women seem to check me out today as I walked by - more than usual, lol. I do enjoy Fahrenheit but the new formulation has no staying power on my skin and its muted 'gasoline' opening makes me miss the pre-formulated version. For this reason alone, I'll give the edge to Bulgari Black - a class act.

Bvlgari Black.

None. To me the first is a hot car tyre, the other is petrol on a hot asphalt. Spray yourself with both as tyres and asphalt go together

While I find Fahrenheit to be ground breaking when it was released.... There is just to much fumes going on in there for me... Headache alley! Bvlgari Black would be the 1 I would choose..
post #22 of 49
Black is just a ridiculously lovely fragrance... right now in my top 5 if you check out my sig..... BLACK FTW!
post #23 of 49
..between these two, Bvlgari Black
post #24 of 49
Has anyone tried layering these two, it would be the ultimate motor-head fragrance Rubber + Gasoline??
post #25 of 49
they are both excellent, but it's almost impossible for me to pick anything against fahrenheit.
post #26 of 49
anything's better than fahrenheit, imho.

Why do we have so many "vs" polls for scents that have nothing in common at all? Compare apples to apples, not apples to fish.

Because someone is bumping these threads for no apparent reason...

Fahrenheit. I am over Black's simplistic rubber+cheap vanilla formula.

Black is an outstanding fragrance but there's nothing like Fahrenheit
post #34 of 49
Both, yet Black has a certain complexity and smoothness I certainly enjoy

I agree.
post #39 of 49
Fahrenheit as it even beats a lot of fragrances today for quality and smelling unequal.

Fahrenheit.

Fahrenheit current has too much gasoline wich i dislike (vintage is divine) but the rubber from bulgari black is even worse than the gasoline (after gasoline or rubber the scents are heavenly)

Fahrenheit
post #43 of 49
Strange thread this one, as these 2 scents don't share any similarity with each other, it's like north and south , therefore difficult to say which one is the winner.
I like both!
post #44 of 49
My vote goes to Fahrenheit...and now I feel like wearing it.
post #45 of 49
I've never smelled Bulgari Black. Can you still get in the shops?
post #46 of 49
I'll go with Fahrenheit
post #47 of 49
between vintage fahrenheit and black this would be hard, but since fahrenheit isn't what it used to be the answer is easy:

BLACK.
post #48 of 49
I chose Bvlgari Black out of these two, but if Fahrenheit 32 were a choice, I would choose it over either original Fahrenheit or Black. I also think F32 makes a better comparison to Bvlgari Black than original Fahrenheit (which seems like a polar opposite)
