Man in Black

Bvlgari · Eau de Parfum (EDP) · 2014

≈ $80 · 100ml · approx. retail

An opulent, boozy spice-bomb that opens on warm rum and tobacco before a striking heart of leather, powdery iris and creamy tuberose lends an unexpectedly floral richness. The base of tonka, benzoin and smoky guaiac wood leaves a sweet, ambery, commanding trail made for cold nights and dressed-up occasions.
