As its smoky, rubbery, and woody accords suggest, Black is crafted for a man immersed in metropolitan life. Eschewing the traditional olfactive pyramid, this fragrance opens with the smoky depth of black tea—specifically Lapsang Souchong—an urban, masculine note that evokes the essence of rubber, car tires, bustling streets, and the hum of motor engines. Yet beneath this gritty urbanity, warm amber and rich woody undertones serve as a reminder: even the largest cities hold romantic moments, like sunsets that paint the sky in soft hues. Created by Annick Menardo in 1998, Black captures this duality of metropolitan life.
