What does Prestige Black smell like?

Citrus and green accords lead: bergamot and grapefruit give a clean, sharp opening, while water jasmine, lichen and maté carry that freshness into a green, lightly spicy middle. Precious woods, musk and amber settle it onto a woody base, with a synthetic edge running through the accords.

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. It reads as masculine, and its value for money is rated highly. Azzaro Chrome (Eau de Toilette) and Davidoff Cool Water (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
