Fragrance World, Just Aswad, For Men, 100 ml

Description

Black, spiced and dense, with the warmth of cinnamon and the cool edge of lavender. Some scents make an entrance before you do.

Just Aswad by Fragrance World is the black version of the Just collection, an aromatic fougère for men. Aswad means black in Arabic, and the name describes the character well: a spiced, dense scent with a clear presence.

First impression: grapefruit and warm spices

The opening is energetic. Grapefruit brings a slightly bitter spark, while nutmeg, cardamom and cinnamon warm the air straight away. The result is a spicy start that is clean rather than heavy.

The character: lavender

In the heart, lavender takes over and gives the perfume the classic structure of a fougère, aromatic and slightly herbal.

What stays: sandalwood, amber, patchouli and vetiver

As the hours pass, sandalwood, amber, patchouli and vetiver form a warm, slightly smoky base that stays on the skin and on clothes.

When to wear it

Just Aswad feels best in autumn and winter, though it also works on cool spring evenings. In very warm weather it is better used sparingly. It suits city outings, dinners and evening events, and in small amounts it can be worn to the office, where the lavender and sandalwood give a neat, polished feel.

Fragrance World is a perfume house from the United Arab Emirates. Just Aswad is an eau de parfum in a 100 ml bottle.
