What does Roccobarocco Black smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, with voters clustering in the middle rather than at either extreme. The vote count is small, so these ratings are a rough guide rather than a firm verdict. It is presented as a feminine fragrance.

The fruity top notes give a fresh, slightly sweet start with quince, blackcurrant and bergamot. In the heart, tuberose, ylang-ylang and magnolia make the floral side fuller. The base of myrrh, frankincense, patchouli, vanilla and amber leaves a resinous, woody, slightly smoky and powdery warmth. Comme des Garçons Daphne and Versace Gianni Versace (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
