Black Pepper

Korres Black Pepper is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2020. Black Pepper opens with Lemon, Lime, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Lavender, Pepper, and Sea Water, and dries down to a base of Cashmere Wood, Musk, Cedar, and Amber. Korres's Black Pepper carries a Favourite verdict, a citrus-led wear.

Don't let the name fool you - this might be called 'Black Pepper,' but it's more of a fresh, clean, and genuinely unisex scent with a surprising depth. It's a crowd-pleaser that punches above its weight for value, perfect if you're after an Invictus-esque vibe without the synthetic cloy.

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Fall

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Sport

Its versatile fresh-woody profile and moderate longevity make it ideal for casual wear and the office, where it's unlikely to overpower. While pleasant for dates, its mass-appealing freshness isn't overtly romantic, and it's too relaxed for formal events.

About

A vibrant burst of citrus, dominated by zesty lemon and lime, kicks things off with invigorating freshness. This quickly gives way to an aromatic heart where lavender and a hint of sea-kissed air blend seamlessly. While the promised 'pepper' is more of a quiet hum than a bold spice, it adds a subtle complexity before settling into a comforting woody musk base, featuring cashmere wood and cedar, softened by warm amber.
