Back to Black Extreme
EDPUnisex
The Story
Back to Black Extreme is a richer, darker take on the original, with honeyed tobacco and cherry liqueur taking center stage. It opens with a boozy burst of rum and cherry, then settles into a warm, resinous heart of tobacco and saffron. The base is a deep, sweet blend of honey, vanilla, and oud that lasts for hours. This is a fragrance for those who love opulent, gourmand scents with a smoky edge.
