Scent Notes

Almond, Cacao, Caramel, Coffee, Heliotrope, Rum, Sandalwood, Sugar

The journey opens with an intoxicating burst of almond and cacao, layered with caramel, coffee, and dark chocolate. A whisper of heliotrope and rum adds complexity, while sugar cane and sandalwood create an addictive warmth. This opening is bold and gourmand, drawing you in with its refined sweetness.

With a refined close presence and noticeable sillage, Black Phantom maintains its elegance throughout 6–8 hours of wear. The warm sandalwood base lingers softly, leaving an impression that's sensual without being overwhelming—perfect for those who prefer their luxury understated and deeply personal.
