Sergio Tacchini Pure Black is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Sofia Bardelli. Pure Black opens with Absinth, Lavender, Rosemary, and Tarragon, settles into a heart of Wisteria, Sandalwood, and Vetiver, and dries down to a base of Amber, Oakmoss, and Tonka Bean. Sergio Tacchini's Pure Black carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

A solid, budget-friendly lavender-forward scent that, while generally well-received, does strike some as a bit 'flat' or 'boring'. Expect a warm, mature vibe for colder evenings rather than a versatile crowd-pleaser.

Scent Profile

Timeline

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.

This scent leans towards evenings and colder weather, making it less suitable for high-energy or office environments. Its warm, mature lavender profile and strong projection make it a good fit for relaxed social events or intimate dates.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

About

Pure Black opens with a distinctly aromatic blast of lavender, sharp wormwood, and fresh rosemary, tempered by the herbaceous, slightly liquorice kiss of tarragon and absinthe. This green and subtly bitter introduction quickly warms into a heart of smooth vetiver and creamy sandalwood, with hints of delicate wisteria providing a soft floral touch. The dry down is deep and earthy, driven by classic oakmoss, rich amber, and the comforting, vanilla-like sweetness of tonka bean.
