Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual Formal
Also Works:
Office

Its moderate sillage and sensual, inviting aroma make it perfect for intimate dating scenarios or classy casual wear. While office appropriate due to its reserved projection, it may be too elegant for typical casual settings and completely unsuitable for sport.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Ferre Black opens with a lively burst of grapefruit and a hint of pepper, smoothed by aromatic lavender. The heart reveals warm cardamom and coriander, softened by a subtle orange blossom. It settles into a comfortable base of teak wood and patchouli, creating a refined and subtly sweet, powdery dry down. Forget a heavy, woody beast, this is delicate elegance.
