Man in Black - Eau de Parfum

Middling and Weak Scent.

Scent is lacking. It takes too many sprays to get a good idea of what it's supposed to smell like. Slight spice scent to it but the projection on the bottle is weak. Packaging is undesirable as well sadly and only a tiny amount provided.

Nice scent!

Packing is nice and sturdy. Great scent, not really sure how long it lasts but it feels like it fades pretty fast. For the price, I expected much better performance, but it completely fails to deliver.

Another Fall Fragrance

The packaging was obviously not indicative of the real product because it’s just the tiny little free sample you’d get with a purchase at a retailer. The scent is just okay; nothing that stood out or blew me away. It’s warm and has a little bit of sweetness. Definitely a cozy fall/winter fragrance. It has moderate throw, but is mostly noticed when close up to the person wearing it.

Musky, ambery and woody for fall

This is a beautiful rich and musky amber that could work for a woman as well as a man, provided you don't mind scents that are warm, woody, ambery and subtly masculine. This projects nicely and wears for a few hours after spraying. It dries down to a warm and subtle skin scent so it isn't too invasive for daily wear, however I would not wear this to the office. Perfect scent for date night or a day out. This scent just screams fall and winter and is perfectly cozy indeed. A win for me!

Good but short lived

Let me start by saying that this cologne smells amazing! It’s a mix of masculine sweet with some earthy tones. The blend works together extremely well and can be used for either date night or the office. The only gripe would have to be that it seems to fade pretty quickly. This review was part of an incentivized campaign.

perfect fall/winter fragrance

this Bulgari Man in Black Parfum smells incredible. perfect scent for the colder weather ahead with great value. projection is pretty good for a sample size along with the packaging.

Distinguishing Scent Profile, Love it!

Bulgari Man in Black Eau De Parfum is a warm, smoky scent that develops as you wear it. It is elegant and a great evening fragrance. I like that it is strong but not overpowering. I also like that it is distinguishing from other cologne profiles. My husband immediately loved it when he smelled it.

A bold, smoky, and luxurious scent that shines in

My first impression of Bvlgari Man in Black is that it smells like a true gentleman’s fragrance. It carries a familiar vibe—smoky and leathery like many classic men’s perfumes—but there’s something luxurious and mysterious about it that sets it apart. The scent feels bold and confident, with a dark, warm character that makes it quite interesting. I personally like it, especially in air-conditioned spaces or colder weather. It seems perfect for winter or evening events. I honestly can’t imagine wearing it in the heat—it might feel too heavy or overwhelming. As for the dry-down (the last note), it softens beautifully. It leaves behind a warm, slightly sweet, and creamy base—probably a mix of tonka bean and benzoin—that lingers in a smooth, comforting way. It still keeps that masculine edge, but becomes more refined over time.

Smells nice

Gave it to my boyfriend, smelled so good he went and cheated on me right after. I really liked this fragrance and honestly would have worn it myself.

I tried this perfume and it left a great impression

The scent is really nice and strong. The packaging is classy and elegant. It has versatility, fragrance can be used both day and night. It offers excellent value for the price. When it comes to projection, it fills the room without being overpowering.

Strong

Way too strong! Not a fan of the smell unfortunately. Tobacco and spices is the main scent but neither me or my husband could tolerate it. It lasted a long time which is good for anyone who likes the smell.

Smokey

The fragrance is Smokey and leaves a lovely lingering smell all day. You only need a small amount to get a lovely, long lasting fragrance which fades lightly through the day. A luxury aftershave which is perfect for day or evening and isn’t over powering
