Black Star

Avril Lavigne Black Star is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2009. The fragrance opens with Blackcurrant, Mango, and Pear, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Hibiscus, and Lotus, and dries down to a base of Dark Chocolate, Sandalwood, Musk, and Vanilla.

Our verdict on Black Star: Statement

A truly divisive celebrity scent, Black Star promises punk rock edge and delivers a sweet, fruity gourmand that either charms with its chocolatey depths or disappoints with its perceived 'cheapness'. Expect a blast of nostalgia, but don't expect it to stick around all day.

About

Black Star opens with a vibrant, juicy burst of blackcurrant, mango, and pear, bright and almost candy-like. This fruity sweetness mellows into a soft floral heart of jasmine, hibiscus, and lotus, before settling into a cozy, warm base. Dark chocolate and creamy vanilla mingle with soft sandalwood and musk, creating a comforting, dessert-like finish that's sweet but rarely cloying.
