The fragrance liberates on top a captivating and contrasted energy. The juicy and vivid freshness of bitter orange fuses with the burning hot addiction of sweet rum. A vibrant elixir that creates an impactful intensity and troubles the senses. The fragrance pushes the limits of intensity with a raw and stylish floral heart. The noble and powdery facets of iris absolute are infused with the disruptive gourmand tones of black cocoa bean.

Surrounded by the magnetic power of woods, the fragrance dives into a balm of sensuality in the dry down. The deep and exotic character of ebony wood is warmed up by the balsamic spiciness of Tonka bean. A statutory signature, like sculpted by elements, which reveals a primal yet elegant masculinity.

In an ode to artistry, BVLGARI partnered with Nigerian-born artist LAOLU SENBANJO to design the bottle. Leading with his "everything is a canvas" motto, LAOLU's interpretation of Black Essence's vibrant addictiveness and distinctiveness culminates in a contemporary art piece.
