Our verdict on Black Sesame: Favourite

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.

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.

About

Black Sesame opens with a boozy embrace of amaretto and dark chocolate, brightened by juicy raspberry and mandarin. It then blooms into a sophisticated bouquet of rose, iris, and creamy tuberose, with a subtle, savoury hum of sesame adding intrigue. The dry-down melts into a warm, inviting base of vanilla, amber, musk, and a whisper of rich coffee.
