What does Black Tulip smell like?

The fruit notes lead: Chinese plum and black cherry give it a sweet, dense fruitiness. Indonesian jasmine carries the floral side while pink pepper adds a light spice, and patchouli lays down an earthy base. Japanese violet softens the blend.

Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, and the occasions they choose most are a night out and the evening. They mostly read its character as feminine. Tom Ford Black Orchid (2023) (Eau de Toilette) and Van Cleef & Arpels Moonlight Rose have a close profile.
