What does Black Cube smell like?

It opens with mandarin orange zest, coriander, cardamom and pink pepper, spicy and fairly fresh. In the heart, oud, frankincense and vetiver dominate, while violet and white amber soften the edges. The base of musk, benzoin and cedar leaves it warm and woody.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and nights out and evenings are the leading occasions. Most voters read it as masculine. Ard Al Zaafaran Oud Muataq and Amouage Interlude 53 have a close profile.
