Black Neroli is a Colombian niche with nuclear power. It opens with an impetuous orange blossom, ripe roses, and a subtle alcoholic touch that isn’t whiskey. Minutes later, the floral roar gives way to a rose-oud combo reminiscent of Dior’s Oud Ispahan, featuring mesquite and orange blossom woods. It’s like walking into a sawmill: crushed woods with green branches and leaves. As it dries down, it becomes less astringent and more velvety, with a resinous oud that’s slightly fecal and medicinal. It’s more potent than Oud Ispahan—a true beast. Use it with care: one spray lasts all day and is so distracting I don’t wear it to work; at night, though, with 4 or 5 sprays, people wonder where the plague is coming from. In Mexico, if someone uses it to intimidate perfume addicts, we ask: ‘Who’s bringing the dead cow?’
Neroli Negro is a Colombian niche perfume with nuclear power. It opens boldly with bitter orange blossom and ripe roses, perhaps a hint of alcohol, though I didn’t detect whiskey. Within minutes, the citrus gives way to a rose-oud combo reminiscent of Dior’s Oud Ispahan, featuring mesquite and blooming orange wood notes. It’s like walking into a lumberyard: crushed wood, branches, and leaves. As it dries down, it becomes less astringent and more velvety, with that resinous, slightly medicinal oud, but without reaching the intensity of Oud Satin Mood or More than Words. I find it more potent than Oud Ispahan. It’s a beast of a perfume that requires careful application: one spray lasts all day, but for going out or to terraces, you need 4 or 5; people will ask where you got the scent. In Mexico, if someone uses this to dominate perfume addicts, we’ll ask: Who’s bringing the dead cow?
The best one in my collection, I absolutely love it.
It’s an addictive scent, something I don’t want to use because I’m afraid it’ll run out. It lasts quite well on clothes, and once it settles, the fragrance intensifies even more. The only downside is the price.
The best one in my small collection, I love it.
Addictive scent I can’t seem to finish; it lasts forever on clothes and intensifies with maceration. The only downside is the price.
As a quick reference, since it’s hard to find in Spain, it smells very similar to Acqua di Parma’s Colonia Intensa Oud. Both have the same vibe; as for longevity, I still need to test more at different temperatures, but on my skin, the Acqua di Parma version lasts forever.
