Signature Halfeti Black Rose, from Zaharoff was released in 2024. The perfumer behind this creation is unknown. It has the top notes of Basil, Bergamot, and Pepper, middle notes of Amber, Cedarwood, Coumarin, Musk, and Rose, and base notes of Agarwood (Oud), Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha, Musk, Rose, and Vetiver.
Halfeti Black Rose: does it smell like black roses (whatever that is)? No, it doesn’t. It’s a rather cheap excuse for a rose fragrance with little to no creativity or imagination, simply a scent to appeal to the masses and sell as much as possible. The scent is obviously rosy, but not in a nice natural way. The rose is a bit screechy, plasticky and very soapy - almost like a cheap rose water. This is contrasted by some generic citrus and an obnoxious overload of black pepper with some vague woods in the base. Overall I’m not impressed at all with this fragrance, it smells very lazy unfortunately. My initial thought when I put this on my skin is it smells sort of like Cool Water with added rose and pepper.
