The Dark Side from Francesca Bianchi, released in 2016, is a warm, resinous wood with a powdery floral centre. Everyone describes it as woody, three quarters add ambery, about half find it sweet or floral, and a quarter notice spice. The perfumer is Francesca Bianchi.
The notes come as one list. Iris and violet give the powdery, slightly cosmetic floral side, cool against everything else. Honey and vanilla bring a thick sweetness, and spicy notes add warmth. Incense and styrax are the resins, smoky and balsamic, while sandalwood, cedar, patchouli and vetiver build a dense, earthy woody floor, with amber tying it together.
It is worn by anyone. Half of wearers report it as long lasting and a third as eternal, and sillage is strong for about half, moderate for a third. Autumn and winter are the clear seasons, and it is voted for night by a wide margin. It suits cold evenings and someone who likes powdery iris but wants it wrapped in smoke, honey and resin rather than kept clean.
