Sensatio Paris 2024 Extrait
Black Sesame
Sensatio Paris Black Sesame is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2024, created by Serge de Oliveira. Black Sesame opens with Dark Chocolate, Amaretto, Mandarin, and Raspberry, settles into a heart of Sesame, Orange Blossom, Rose, and Iris, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Vanilla, and Coffee. Sensatio Paris's Black Sesame carries a Favourite verdict, a sweet-led wear.
This one is a divisive but intriguing floral gourmand. Some rave it's an addictive, compliment-getting marvel; others find its performance just alright, leaving them on the fence about a full bottle. Definitely sample it to see if it grabs you.What our verdicts mean →

Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
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.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Best Occasions
Its moderate projection and noticeable presence make it a bit much for the office but perfect for dates and evening events. The unique gourmand-floral blend, particularly with the dark chocolate and amaretto, makes it more suited for cooler weather and dressier occasions.
