  This perfume only smells like liquor on me, it’s like when you come home late at night after a party 🙂 Maybe someone poured a bottle of brandy on your shirt…

  The beauty of the bottle surpasses the fragrance. It tries to be more but fails. There’s a note, I think licorice, that doesn’t fit at all with the fruity-floral vibe, leaving it undefined.

  If you want to stand out, buy this. Be careful, one spritz is enough. It’s for people who want to draw attention. I gave it to my mother, it’s ideal for winter or cold nights.

  It smells like chocolate to me; I adored it and couldn’t buy it back then; they told me it was discontinued. I don’t know if, after six years, the scent is still as exquisite as before.

  I was gifted this perfume because I like Jesús del Pozo, but it was a mistake: I returned it because it’s too strong. I don’t like drawing so much attention, and with just one touch, I already considered the scent excessive.

  I like it. At first, it smells like liquor, but over time it leaves a chocolate aroma, like boozy cherry candies.

  I had it and it smelled fruity, very sweet. Special for winter nights.

  I bought this perfume based on the reviews, expecting something strong and potent like the Poison line, but I was deceived: on my skin, it doesn’t smell strong or project beyond the first half-hour. It starts boozy and then drops to a tart cherry with licorice and vanilla, with a warm violet base. It’s a pity it lasts so little, as perfumes usually last longer on me. I’ll try to test it elsewhere, although it’s complicated since it’s discontinued.

  I bought it attracted by its boozy aroma, but after using it, I gave it away because it became unbearable. I disliked the dry-down notes, the most lasting ones, and the longevity wasn’t a marvel either. In short, it wasn’t the experience I was looking for.

  I bought it attracted by its liquorish scent, but after starting to wear it I gave it away because it became unbearable; there was something I disliked in the dry-down notes, which are also the most lasting. As for longevity and performance, it wasn’t a marvel either.

  I read the notes and was surprised; to me, it smells like a deep oriental with incense. It’s potent, only for freezing nights and in small quantities. It’s not bad, but not a bomb. Its twin, In White, is a simple floral; this one is much darker and more mysterious.

  I read the notes and thought it would be a deep oriental with incense, and it is: it’s potent and only suitable for freezing nights in minimal quantities. It’s not the bomb I expected, but it delivers. Its twin, In White, is a simple floral, while this one is much darker and mysterious, with its own personality.

  The bottle is gorgeous, but the fragrance is a different story: very potent and special for not going unnoticed. The fruity blend reminds me of chocolate filled with cherry liqueur. I see it as ideal for winter nights and drinks, but not for daily use. I like it, but it bores me; I don’t dislike it, but it doesn’t make me fall in love.

  I was surprised they classified it as floral-fruity; in reality, it’s pure patchouli and licorice, making it too intense for me. If you detect the cherry, it’s not fresh fruit, but a shot of boozy candies, very sharp. I bought it idealized for years and found it like a treasure, but on my skin it was a disappointment. I love fennel and anise, but this mix is too strong and deep for my personal taste.

  I’m surprised it’s classified as fruity-floral, since neither the flowers nor the fruits are perceived, but pure patchouli and licorice that eclipse everything else, resulting in being too intense and deep for my taste. If you distinguish the cherry, it’s not to say it’s fruity :/. I’d put it in Oriental, the Angel group, only that In Black is even more piercing and liquorish; those cherries aren’t sweet or childish, more like a shot of Miura or Mon Cheri bonbons, to be used with caution. I bought it because I had idealized it for many years, just having smelled it in stores, but so much time later… and finding it discontinued as if finding a treasure, but… disappointment on skin 🙁 it doesn’t work at all for me, although I love the notes of licorice, fennel, anise… this is too much for me, hehe.

  Jesús del Pozo’s house had glorious moments, but In Black is another level. It smelled of macerated cherry liqueur, licorice, and a woody base that evokes a 1930s vamp, nothing youthful. Although the label says floral-fruity, on the skin it’s a powdery oriental, dark, with notes of woody vanilla and orchids. It has that animal and dirty touch that makes it unique, like vintage brothel potion. It’s not sweet or kind; it’s potent, spicy, and perfect for those who love the decadent and the risky.

  The Jesús del Pozo house had glorious perfumes. How could you forget the divine Duende and Essence of Duende, or the genius of Halloween, a ghostly, sensual ozone mist that, twenty-five years later, still pleases me as much as the first day. The On line didn’t work out for me, they passed without much fuss, although their organic bottles from the early 2000s were suggestive. After years of drought came In Black, followed the next year by In White, my favorite: a pleasant mist of greenish white flowers with dusty hints of florals and herbal musk. In Black wasn’t my taste: too heavy, overwhelming, and oriental. That doesn’t mean it was bad, because it absolutely wasn’t. It’s very easy to summarize: it evolved little, featuring licorice and pressed cherries squeezed to extract their oil, with hints of patchouli and re-heated amber. Although the notes suggest otherwise, it’s not gourmand nor sweet; its sweetness is adult, mature, making you think of a decadent 30s vamp or starlette, à la Galliano. In Black was alcoholic like a macerated cherry liqueur, a hangover without kindness, sharp, spicy, woody. Add cherries and licorice and you get a potion with traces of poison that will delight lovers of decadent orientals. For me, it doesn’t resemble other cherry emblems like Delices, Le Petit Robe Noire, or Lolita Lempicka, which are more youthful and cheerful. In Black has a gothic vibe and could perfectly be worn by any fairy tale villainess. At some point in the dry-down, it has an animalic touch with memories of urine, dried flowers, and dirt, woody and liquorish vanilla with an orchid flavor; I think Vivienne Westwood could have sold it perfectly. P.S.: It’s cataloged as fruity-floral… nah, this is a powdery oriental with vintage brothel vibes, much darker than its definition. As for florals, it has flowers, but dried, almost opium-like; as for fruits, too, but without fresh pulp, here there’s only fermented skins. It’s called In Black and indeed, it doesn’t lie. Plus, it was created by Nagel, who is known for taking risks.

  I knew nothing about this fragrance until my husband dragged me out of the store to show me his surprise: a tester of this discontinued floral jewel. The moment I smelled it, I was hit by that mix of tart fruit, flowers, and a touch of nocturnal patchouli. It made me think of going out partying in heels and a black dress, ready to write adventure stories. It’s a personality-filled scent that dresses and seduces, perfect for those seeking something intense and mysterious. A real surprise I just discovered, and I hope it lives on in the hands of someone who knows how to love it.
