ABOUT THE FRAGRANCE
KILIAN describes Back to Black, aphrodisiac as a smoky gourmand composition in which honey and sweet spices meet incense and vanilla, with blue camomile and cedarwood veiled in smoke and sandalwood contributing to a tobacco-like harmony.

OUR TAKE
Vanilla, tobacco, a slightly bitter almond impression and warm amber formed the core. The fragrance stayed fairly quiet and close to the skin, and it leaned somewhat feminine to me.
It strongly recalled Herod, but as a more unisex, fruitier variation with a stronger almond impression. I liked aspects of it, but since I already had Herod, and preferred Herod by a clear margin, it felt redundant.
