Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Black Phantom EDP
Black Phantom is the Marmite of gourmands: a divisive, love-it-or-hate-it scent. Expect a journey from boozy, bitter darkness to sweet, seductive warmth. It's not a safe blind buy, so sample it before you commit.

Our Verdict - Dark Phantom Extrait
Dark Phantom is Aromara's take on Kilian's Black Phantom, the rum-caramel gourmand that turned into one of Kilian's biggest hits. Aromara simplifies the pyramid to its sweetest, boldest strokes - rum and black caramel upfront, vanilla and musk underneath - trading Kilian's more layered coffee-tinged complexity for a straighter, sweeter gourmand that reads a little less rich but still unmistakably in the same family.
