Why buy Black Pomegranate from OLFx?

Black Pomegranate is an Extrait de Parfum made and sold as an OLFx composition. We built it around the dark pomegranate and spiced-wood character people recognize in Pomegranate Noir, with the 50 ml spray as the main format and the oil kept separate in the size selector above. Make the 50 ml spray your entry into this fragrance.

What does Black Pomegranate smell like?

Black Pomegranate is built around pomegranate, pink pepper, Casablanca lily, guaiacwood, and patchouli. It opens on crushed pomegranate seeds, tart and faintly winey, with pink pepper adding a dry, prickling heat. Casablanca lily moves in at the center, heavy and waxy rather than airy, like a cut flower left too long in a warm room. Guaiacwood brings a smoky, slightly medicinal wood underneath, closer to a dying campfire than fresh lumber. Patchouli closes the base with a dark, earthy density, damp soil rather than incense. The arc moves from tart fruit through heavy floral into smoky wood, closer to a holiday table than a garden.

What stands out in reviews of Pomegranate Noir?

Black Pomegranate is built around the dark pomegranate and spiced-wood accord that wearers praise in Pomegranate Noir. One wearer compares it to a fancy Christmas tree in an upscale department store and loves its festive richness. Another has worn it as a holiday signature for a decade, drawn to its dark, rich, wintery fruit and spice over warm wood and amber. A third treats it as an essential cold-weather fragrance, prized for the blend of pomegranate, spice, and amber. Among the top 213 reviews, spicy appears in 25.4%, fruity in 22.1%, and dark in 13.6%.
