Mancera Aoud Black Candy is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012, created by Pierre Montale. Aoud Black Candy opens with Licorice and Mint, settles into a heart of Amber and Rose, and dries down to a base of Musk and Cotton Candy. Mancera's Aoud Black Candy carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Divisive and utterly unique, Mancera's Aoud Black Candy is a love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect strong opinions, from delightful sweet-and-spicy to something far less appealing. It's not a safe blind-buy, but if you're after something truly different, this could be your weird and wonderful signature.

Its potent projection and unique, sometimes challenging, profile make Aoud Black Candy ill-suited for the office. However, its strong performance and distinctive character lend themselves well to date nights or casual outings where you want to make a statement. It's too bold for sport and perhaps too peculiar for many formal events.

About

Aoud Black Candy plunges into an opening of cool, biting mint and dark, syrupy licorice - a bold, almost medicinal start. This challenging beginning mellows into a heart of delicate rose and warm amber, adding a touch of classic complexity. Finally, it settles into a surprisingly sweet base of confectionery cotton candy and soft musk, creating a strange but compelling contrast that lingers on the skin.
