What does Black Forest smell like?
Voters find both its longevity and its sillage good, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. It reads as unisex, suited to men and women alike.
Grapefruit sits at the top, ambroxan in the heart and woody notes at the base. Fresh, citrus and aquatic accords lead, softened by fruity and sweet touches, while the woody and creamy sides stay in the background. A synthetic sheen runs through it. Alexandria Fragrances Black Panther and Spirit of Kings Arrakis have a close profile.
