The review

Dark Moment scores 7.0 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Black Phantom.

Volare sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Black Phantom's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $30 it costs 90% less than Black Phantom.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Volare publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

By Kilian Black Phantom is rum at first, coffee, dark chocolate and almond at its heart and caramel, sugar cane and vanilla at the end. Volare set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • rum

Heart

  • coffee
  • dark chocolate
  • almond

Base

  • caramel
  • sugar cane
  • vanilla
For the one who craves a pirate's treasure of dark coffee, chocolate and boozy rum, brooding, mysterious and unabashedly dessert-sweet.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
