Black is a fragrance from the Italian house Bvlgari, composed by Annick Menardo and released in 1998. People describe it as equally green, woody and floral, with sweet, leather and citrus sides behind. It is worn by anyone.
Green tea and bergamot open with a cool, slightly smoky freshness, softened by rose. The heart brings sandalwood and cedar, which give a smooth, dry woodiness, and jasmine a soft floral warmth. The base is where it becomes distinctive: leather adds a rubbery, smoky texture, vanilla and amber a gentle sweetness, and oakmoss a mossy depth.
About half of wearers find its longevity moderate, and most report moderate sillage. It is voted for autumn and winter and leans slightly towards evenings. It suits cooler days and city evenings, and someone who likes unusual, smoky tea-and-leather scents with a soft vanilla base rather than conventional freshness.
