Milton-Lloyd Colour Me Black is an Eau de Parfum. Colour Me Black opens with Bergamot and Grapefruit, settles into a heart of Leather, Amber, Pepper, and Cardamom, and dries down to a base of Patchouli and Oakmoss. Milton-Lloyd's Colour Me Black carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

A beast-mode Invictus clone that punches way above its price point. It's a crowd-pleasing, youthful scent, but be warned: this one can be cloyingly sweet if you go heavy on the trigger.

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.

Other declarable allergens

About

Opens with a zesty, fruity burst of bergamot and grapefruit, giving it an immediate fresh and juicy lift. This quickly settles into a heart of warm, spicy cardamom and a hint of rugged leather, sweetened by amber. The dry down is a classic chypre base of earthy patchouli and oakmoss, adding depth and a slightly masculine edge.
