Bvlgari Man In Black is warm, boozy leather with a sweet, spiced glow. Rum and tobacco open it, laced with warm spices. The heart holds a surprise: soft leather, smoothed further by powdery iris and a creamy thread of tuberose. Guaiac wood, tonka bean and benzoin then settle it into a woody, ambery sweetness. It came out in 2014 and is mostly worn by men, but anyone drawn to rich, cosy scents should give it a go. Voters reach for it in autumn and winter, mainly at night, and some wear it to work. Its longevity vote leans long-lasting. Most wearers call the sillage moderate. A 10ml decant is plenty to live with it through a run of cold evenings.

The community verdict
Warm and spicy, Bvlgari Man In Black blends rum and tobacco into leather, then settles on guaiac wood and tonka bean. Wear time divides between long-lasting and moderate, and most find projection moderate. It suits winter nights and autumn evenings, especially if you like a smooth, decidedly masculine style.

The house
More from Bvlgari
Bvlgari was founded in Rome in 1884 by Sotirio Bulgari, a Greek silversmith, and made its name in high jewellery long before it made perfume. Its scents tend to be cool and polished rather than sugary: cedar, sandalwood and vetiver, lit by bergamot, grapefruit or ginger, with musk and ambergris for a smooth finish. Omnia Crystalline is the gentle start, a sheer woody floral with musk. Bvlgari Man In Black is darker, warm spice over leather and woods, and Bvlgari Man Wood Essence is the fresh, citrus-and-wood one. The Le Gemme collection goes deeper into amber and flowers.
