Black Walnut

by Harry Frémont

Banana Republic Black Walnut is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2006, created by Harry Frémont. Black Walnut opens with Cognac, settles into a heart of Tobacco, and dries down to a base of Cedar. Banana Republic's Black Walnut carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

A truly gorgeous, refined boozy tobacco with a woody soul that's tragically let down by woeful performance. It's the scent we love to respray, often by the dozen, for fleeting moments of sophisticated bliss.

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter
Also Works:
Spring

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date

Its intimate projection and poor longevity make it suitable for office wear where it won't offend. For dates, it's pleasant but requires frequent reapplication. Its casual nature comes from its softness, but it lacks the oomph needed for formal events or the freshness for sport.

About

Black Walnut opens with a delightful, slightly sweet cognac, like a warming digestif in a dimly lit, wood-panelled room. This boozy richness soon settles into a comforting pipe tobacco aroma, creamy and not too aggressive. Underpinning it all is a dry, elegant cedar, giving it a classic masculine edge that evokes luxury and warmth. It's a linear scent, but beautifully blended, offering a consistent and inviting presence from start to finish - however brief that may be.
