Description
When you call your fragrance “aphrodisiac”, you'd better be fairly sure you're not overreaching yourself. This latest release from By Kilian is the sixth composed for the house by Calice Becker, is as head-turning a love potion as you're ever likely to spritz on. That is, if you enjoy the velvet-smooth, burning liquid umber of a great cognac and the hay-like fragrance of tobacco steeped in fruit and honey, or sipping a fine amaretto on a bed of moss. Who doesn't?
Back to Black by Kilian is an olfactory trip to Arabia – or perhaps to the exotica-mad 1920s, when Caron gave Tabac Blond to sultry, cigarette-smoking garçonnes. The tobacco accord is slyly evoked through the herbal, faintly animalic fragrance of chamomile laced with honey; the honey in its turn conjures faintly floral aromas.
Throughout its development, Back to Black runs through a palette of subtly gourmand flavors, from ripe, almost fermented raspberry to the dry cocoa powder of patchouli, along with almond and vanilla, without ever veering into tooth-aching sweetness thanks to the bitter, cooling effect of cardamom, coriander, vetiver and moss. It stretches out languorously on the skin for hours, displaying its dark facets, leaving you hungry for more Arabian nights in its amber glow.

Important info: Here, we sell decants only. This item is a hand-decanted sample. The original bottle on the main picture is not for sale, it just shows the original bottle from which perfume will be decanted. Therefore, the customer will receive the authentic fragrance poured from original bottle into a new sterile vial. The size of the vial is your choice.
Fragrancesline specializes in providing meticulously prepared decants and samples from an extensive portfolio of fine fragrances. Our process ensures the integrity of each scent, as it is expertly transferred from the original flacon to a new, sterile glass atomizer. This service offers our clientele the opportunity to thoroughly trial a fragrance before committing to a full-size purchase, ensuring a confident and informed selection of their signature scent.
To help you explore our collection, we offer sample sizes of 1ml, 2ml, 5ml, 8ml and 10ml. The appearance of the bottles pictured above may vary slightly from the ones we are currently using for decanting; however, we guarantee that the volumes will always be as stated.
Please Note: Unlike our 2ml, 5ml, 8ml and 10ml bottles, our 1ml samples do not come with a spray. Instead, they are equipped with a small dabber wand for a more delicate application to the skin.
