Back to Black in detail
Kilian Paris groups its fragrances into families with evocative names. Back to Black, aphrodisiac, belongs to The Smokes, devoted to woods and smoke, and is meant as an ember that revives the blackest nights. It is signed by Calice Becker.
The house publishes a short pyramid. Cedarwood opens the composition, dry and upright. The heart is a languid honey, lifted by sweet spices. The base pairs smoky, mysterious incense with vanilla. The house also speaks of a gourmand tobacco, satisfying and hard to let go of.
Back to Black suits autumn and winter, especially in the evening: an evening by the fire, a dinner, a night out with friends.
Three woody fragrances in our catalogue come close: Decision 42 by Amouage shares incense, cedarwood and vanilla; Fat Electrician by Etat Libre d'Orange pairs cedarwood and vanilla; Sky Paris Sky by Memo Paris finds incense and vanilla again in a more gourmand register.
