About Black Lacquer.
Opening chapter
om Ford Black Lacquer opens with an electrifying jolt of ink and a rebellious vinyl accord, sharply accented by the fiery spice of black pepper and the intoxicating warmth of rum. This provocative entrance paves the way for a heart of profound elegance, where the rich, leathery nuances of Makassar ebony wood intertwine with the balsamic sweetness of elemi. A surprising whisper of apricot adds a soft, fruity counterpoint, while a dark peony accord blooms, injecting a mysterious floral depth that is both enchanting and enigmatic.
02 · Heart
As the fragrance settles, a singular note of olibanum anchors the composition, providing a smoky, resinous foundation with remarkable longevity. This unique oriental woody blend, crafted by Guillaume Flavigny, evokes an atmosphere of refined daring and sophisticated intrigue, perfect for evening wear or when making a statement. Its potent projection and enduring presence ensure an unforgettable olfactory journey that lingers on the skin, a true testament to modern perfumery's artistry. Black Lacquer is a scent designed for those who embrace their boldest selves, offering an experience that is at once opulent and audaciously compelling.
