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

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.
