Legendary Black Opium Yves Saint Laurent: history and review
Black Opium is more than just a perfume. It's a phenomenon. A fragrance that appeared in 2014 and in...
Pascal Morabito launched Or Black in 1982 — and it was a brilliant move. A masculine fragrance rooted in the fern and east families. This fragrance is the result of a creative collaboration between Jean-Louis Sieuzac and Vincent Ricord. From the DNA collection; released as eau de toilette.
Produced in France, where perfumery has long been elevated to an art form. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A light and elegant fragrance with harmonious richness—the perfect balance between the depth of eau de parfum and the freshness of cologne
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The olfactory structure of Or Black is built as a living composition, where accents shift smoothly and sequentially. The creative approach of Pascal Morabito is evident from the opening to the final trail. Nothing here feels random, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de toilette keeps the depth and body this composition needs.
The accord profile is shaped by these accords: Aromatic, Citrus, Gourmet and Musc with each one in a clear role. Background accords such as Wood, Amber, Leather and Spicy enrich the profile without taking over. The profile is masculine, which clarifies the composition character.
From the first breath you sense radiant lemon-bergamot top notes: Bergamot, Black Pepper and Leather accord.
At the core of development you meet Benzoin and Sage holding a amber-incense direction.
At the note-group layer the structure relies on Citrus, Spicy, Leather and Balsamic. It also reaches into Aromatic, Ambery, Earthy / Mossy and Wood. At family level the composition sits in East and Fern.
In summary Or Black holds a coherent structure — the first stage creates momentum, the central phase adds depth, while the drydown anchors the memory. This is the type of composition best experienced in wear.
