How it moves
The first breath is rum, and it is loud about it. Coffee, dark chocolate, almond and heliotrope are where it actually lives. It dries down to caramel, sugar cane, vanilla, Tonka Bean, sandalwood and vetiver, close to the skin and hard to forget.
What wearers say
3.87 out of 5 from 4,700 ratings.
- A polarizing coffee-chocolate-rum gourmand: admirers call it addictive, detractors find the opening harsh or synthetic.
- Sweet and dessert-like with strong longevity, best reserved for evenings and colder months.
- Frequently described as a unisex comfort scent, though some report a sharp boozy start.
Who made it
Sidonie Lancesseur composed it in 2017, for By Kilian in France. Launched in 2017, Black Phantom by By Kilian is themed around a pirate's treasure chest, pairing coffee, rum and dark chocolate in a bold gourmand.
