Bvlgari Man Black Orient
by Bvlgari
Bvlgari Man Black Orient is a bold, masculine fragrance with a richly layered profile of spicy cardamom, boozy rum, dry leather, and deep oud. It opens with a potent, aromatic burst of cardamom and rum, leading into a smooth, warm core dominated by leather and oud, enhanced by subtle floral hints of taif rose and tuberose. The dry down is dark, woody, and slightly smoky, creating an intense and enduring scent with a refined, oriental complexity. Performance is exceptional—longevity exceeds 8 hours with strong projection that lingers on clothes and skin even after multiple washes. Sillage is substantial, especially in colder months, making it ideal for night wear, seasonal fall and winter use, or formal occasions. The scent carries a confident, mature aura, evoking images of mysterious, sophisticated nightlife, and is widely praised as a standout within the Bvlgari Man line.
