Scent Notes

Cedarwood, Violet, Orris, Clove, Musk

The top notes arrive as a crisp burst of Italian violet, cedarwood, and wildflowers, opening with clean sophistication and a whisper of Virginia cedar. The composition feels light and airy—an inviting first impression that sets an elegant tone without overwhelming presence.

As the fragrance settles, the heart reveals clove, iris, orris, and delicate musk, grounding the initial brightness into something more sensual and complex. The florals deepen while the spice adds dimension, creating an intimate character that feels both refined and accessible.

The base unfolds with black currant and Bulgarian rose, warmed by clove and musk, creating an intimate skin-close trail that lingers gracefully for 6–8 hours. The sillage remains noticeable yet composed, making this equally wearable in warm conditions and throughout the seasons.

Performance & Wear

Love In Black delivers 6–8 hours of noticeable projection on skin. Apply to pulse points for optimal diffusion and longevity. Layer with the accompanying Body Oil to significantly extend wear throughout your day. Perfect for evening occasions and cooler seasons.
