Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

With its eternal longevity and enormous sillage, Black Fume is too overpowering for an office environment or casual daytime wear. It shines brightest for evening dates, formal events, and special occasions where its bold presence can be appreciated, especially in colder weather.

About

Black Fume explodes with a dark, jammy raspberry that's anything but sugary sweet. This bold fruit quickly melds into a heart of deep, woody notes and a subtle, powdery iris. The dry-down plunges into an intoxicating blend of smoky oud, rich tobacco, and a sophisticated ambroxan, underpinned by a resinous labdanum that adds a leathery, almost rubbery depth. It's a complex, evolving scent that balances sweetness with a brooding, burnt character.
