What does Black Caviar smell like?

At the start caviar, oud and cedarwood lead; among the accords the fresh, aquatic and green side dominates, while the sweet and spicy parts stay in the background. In the heart, lavender, rosemary and sage add an herbal freshness, and vetiver, patchouli and oakmoss dry it down onto a woody, earthy base.

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick spring, summer and fall, with winter well behind. It is chosen for leisure, daily wear and the office. Most voters read it as masculine, though it is classed as unisex. Lattafa Sheikh Al Shuyukh and Molinard Molinard Homme III have a close profile.
