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.

Its mysterious and alluring character, mentioned by reviewers, is ideal for colder nights out, formal events, and dates, while being too heavy for casual daytime use or sport.

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

Black Gemstone opens with a bracing, almost tart lemon and cedar, a fleeting freshness before plunging into an inky, resinous heart. Myrrh and frankincense swirl with balsamic depth and warm spices, evoking sacred smoke and ancient woods. The dry-down settles into a comforting, subtly sweet embrace of teak and tonka bean, still deeply resinous but with a smooth, lingering warmth.
