Skylar Black Sugar is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2025. Black Sugar opens with Sugar Cane, Bergamot, and Heliotrope, settles into a heart of Sandalwood and Rose, and dries down to a base of Vanilla Caviar, Molasses, and Amber. Skylar's Black Sugar carries an Acquired verdict, a almond-led wear.

This one is definitely for those with a sweet tooth; if you don't like smelling like a walking patisserie, steer clear. It's a divisive gourmand that leans heavily into the dessert trolley, making it a firm love-it-or-hate-it contender.

Date

Its overwhelming sweetness and gourmand nature make it completely unsuitable for the office, as evidenced by someone asking about popcorn. It's best suited for casual, relaxed settings where its dessert-like aroma can be appreciated without offending. It's too informal and cloying for a formal occasion.

About

Imagine a rich, syrupy opening with sticky sugar cane and a hint of powdery heliotrope that quickly deepens. The heart warms with a soft, creamy sandalwood and a whisper of rose trying to peek through the overwhelming sweetness. The base is pure indulgence, a thick vanilla caviar blended with dark, rich molasses and a warm amber, creating a dense, almost edible aroma that lingers.
