Alberto Morillas

"Bvlgari Man In Black Eau de Parfum is a dark, ambery-spicy masculine fragrance launched in 2014. It is widely recognized for its rich opening of rum, tobacco, and spices, which gives it a warm, boozy, evening-oriented identity. The heart introduces an unusual floral-leathery contrast, with tuberose adding a sensual twist to the otherwise smoky masculine structure. In the drydown, benzoin, guaiac wood, and tonka-like warmth create a resinous, slightly sweet finish. The scent is often described as bold, seductive, and dressy, with strong cold-weather appeal. It stands as one of the best-known entries in the Bvlgari Man line and remains especially popular for night wear and date settings."

Fun Facts

The fragrance was associated with Bvlgari's 130th anniversary period and is often cited as one of the line's standout releases.

Master perfumer Alberto Morillas is credited with the composition, and the floral use of tuberose in a dark men's scent became one of its signature talking points.

Reviews Summary

“User feedback consistently describes the original Man In Black EDP as a dark, spicy, boozy, and seductive scent with strong winter-night appeal. Reviewers frequently praise the rum-and-tobacco opening, the smooth leathery floral heart, and the warm resinous base, often calling it one of the sexiest designer fragrances in its price range. Performance is generally considered good rather than beastly, with many users reporting strong projection early on and roughly 7–8 hours of wear, while some newer impressions mention weaker longevity than older expectations.”
