    Everyone keeps talking about Black Sugar, so I finally gave it a proper test. Give it a little time and Vanilla with Leather comes forward β€” smooth and well done. After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Vanilla with Leather, which is where the fragrance really shines. It performs better in warmer weather β€” in the heat it opens up nicely. The composition is well made but not for me.

    I keep reaching for Black Sugar more than I expected to. The heart is the best part for me: Vanilla and Leather feel carefully balanced. Give it a little time and Vanilla with Leather comes forward β€” smooth and well done. It wears beautifully in the office; I can still catch it on my scarf at the end of the day. I can see this getting a lot of wear in my collection.

    My first Aquolina experience was this one, Black Sugar (2013). After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Vanilla with Leather, which is where the fragrance really shines. The heart is the best part for me: Vanilla and Leather feel carefully balanced. In cooler weather it sits closer to the skin, which I actually prefer here. The composition is well made but not for me.

    Picked up a sample of Black Sugar after reading the community buzz (2013). Give it a little time and Vanilla with Leather comes forward β€” smooth and well done. After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Vanilla with Leather, which is where the fragrance really shines. On my skin the performance is reliable, not a beast but far from weak. Easily one of my favourite finds this season.

I enjoy it when I wear it, yet I rarely think of reaching for it.
