What does Bvlgari Man In Black Parfum smell like?

Most voters pick fall and winter, and it leans towards evenings and nights out. Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters read it as masculine, while some call it classic or modern.

It opens with Philippine elemi, cinnamon, cardamom and black pepper in a spicy start. At the heart, tuberose absolute and iris bring a floral, powdery softness. The base of cypriol and patchouli is woody and smoky, with benzoin adding a sweet, resinous warmth and a leathery edge.
