The Black Knight
Smoky vetiver and leather meet powdery rose in a perfume inspired by a Renaissance captain.
Perfumer: Francesca Bianchi
The Black Knight draws on the austerity and loyalty of Renaissance captain Giovanni Dalle Bande Nere. A military camp supplies the setting: wild shrubs, a fire and leather horse tack.
Vetiver forms the center, deepened by smoky leather. Artemisia, caraway and honey meet powdery rose and iris butter. That floral softness introduces a more human aspect within the stern, dark wooden character Bianchi wanted to express.
