Kilian Black Phantom Memento Mori Anniversary Edition is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Sidonie Lancesseur. Black Phantom Memento Mori Anniversary Edition opens with Rum, settles into a heart of Dark Chocolate, Heliotrope, and Almond, and dries down to a base of Sugar Cane, Sandalwood, Vetiver, and Caramel. Kilian's Black Phantom Memento Mori Anniversary Edition carries an Acquired verdict, a chocolate-led wear.

This one is a divisive dark horse - some find it intoxicatingly unique, a perfectly twisted gourmand, while others are utterly repulsed, calling it out for smelling like death or making them gag. Definitely not a safe blind buy, so test before you commit.

About

Imagine a deep, syrupy rum note, mingling with rich dark chocolate and toasted almond for a gourmand hit that's anything but ordinary. A backbone of sandalwood and vetiver provides an airy, woody depth, preventing it from becoming cloyingly sweet, while sugarcane and heliotrope add a sugary, almost powdery touch. It's a complex dance between boozy indulgence and sophisticated darkness.
