Fine new creation from Puredistance
Dark, earthy, sweet, clean, and with a sharp note in there that I can't place. This is very masculine according to my girlfriend. Others have described this scent as fitting of it's monicker "black", I'm not sure about that. But it is dark. There's so much going on. Having worn this scent on and off for about a week now, I'm not picking up some notes as much as I did when I first wore it, the scent has gone from earthy to sweet. Seems like a very complex and rich perfume, and immensely enjoyable. When I don't wear it, I want to. When I do wear it, I look forward to the continuous wafts of… whatever note I don't know what it is hitting my nose. Black has gotten into my head, and I'm glad it's there.

After the first hour of moderate projection it becomes a skin scent, and from there it lasts all day and all night, with the scent still lingering on my arm after a good nights rest. So far all that I've asked have been very impressed with it's smell, from family and friends, to the SA at Neiman's, everyone likes it. And I do love it. This scent is appropriate for every occasion since I'm the only one likely to enjoy it, along with anyone who happens to hug me. So far no one has noticed the fragrance without me getting in close and pointing it out. I'm a fan of M. If M is the James Bond of perfume, announcing it's presence strongly, then what would Black be? Perhaps Tom Cruise at the masquerade ball in Eyes Wide Shut...

Puredistance has combined otherwise familiar scents into something that's wholly new for me. I will do as Puredistance asks and not analyze it any further, and just experience their newest creation with myself and my SO.
