Black Poison
You remember "Poison" , the 1986's sillage-monster? You probably know the original perfume and I'm sure you have noticed the reformulated version, which is a deplorable shadow of its old self.
BLACK STONE by Al Haramain takes you back to the days of the 80's powerhouse-fragrances. In the beginning, it smells like the old Poison. But unfortunately, BLACK STONE contains a strong urinous note, missing from the original "Poison", of course. This rather unpleasant aspect (particulary noticeable in the drydown!) ruins the entire fragrance. I have no idea why the brand advertises this as a "masculine" scent, but probably this is a sign of gender-neutral marketing.
