The performance is very low, both on clothes and skin, despite testing it over several days. By the end of the day, only a faint, barely perceptible trace remains on the skin. The scent is very similar but lacks the initial liquor explosion of the EDP, let alone the vanillic dry-down. I’m sticking with the EDP, even though it doesn’t last as promised. Update: I’ve worn it again for a week; temperatures have risen significantly (+23°C) and it projects more with acceptable longevity. It perfectly covers a workday, releasing bursts of scent. On clothes, it lasts much longer and the next day it still smells slightly, though distinctly. It’s just my opinion; it depends on the environment, humidity… who knows. I like it more and more.
Terrible performance, exquisite scent.

It’s been on sale for a while; it was odd not to see it on websites (now you can) in well-known stores, but if you went to Primor, you’d find it there. Exquisite scent, quite similar to the previous EDP version, but terrible performance. As soon as I applied it to my wrist, it was skin-scented and felt very faint.
Call me crazy, but this smells exactly like the old Spicebomb EDT before they changed the formula. The scent is identical. As for performance, I haven’t tried it much, but it doesn’t seem to last or project well. What a shame because the fragrance is top-notch.
Call me crazy, but to me it’s a dead ringer for Spicebomb EDT before its reformulation. The smell is copied. As for performance, I haven’t tested it much, but it doesn’t seem to project or last long. A pity because the scent is excellent.
I detected leather and animalic notes in the opening. I’m no expert nose, but that much I caught. I enjoy this style of dark fragrances; they remind me so much of Armand Basi.
Tested dry. A masculine scent, distinctive of the original, slightly more floral and fruity. It leans heavily towards a certain trend without quite overwhelming me.
Pleasant, mature, elegant aroma, well-executed but… If the performance (projection and longevity) of Man in Black Parfum and other proposals from houses like Yves Saint Laurent (La Nuit de L’Homme, for example, though it’s not the only one), Cartier, Givenchy, Rochas, Creed, among others (even niche, according to… you pay for the brand) were presented to a common user from the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, and even the early 90s, they would tell you that either you are rich and snob (an unbearable fool) or a bit naive (a lost fool). I am annoyed because I see that users (including myself) are forced to bathe in their fragrance, dress quickly so it soaks into the clothes, and endure a few ‘prudent’ hours with a product that costs more than 50 euros for the bottle… only to require new doses. Some might say that if you don’t have enough money, better not to complain and settle for not being able to boast about paying a lot for little performance, but that’s like saying, ‘settle for your position of not having enough money to be treated as a fool’. Man in Black Parfum is there, very well, a mature version of Spicebomb with more worked sweetness and an imprint that enhances the woods while minimising cinnamon and emphasising spices. And here is where I say: Mr Morillas is who he is and knows how to do things well, but… standard projection and longevity so you pay more than you receive (and I tell you this as someone who sometimes pays for aromas but not for performance (a fool, a complete idiot))… you do it yourself. PS: Please forgive the reader and the reader for my tantrum, but sometimes one gets tired of having, for example, a pair of inherited shoes from one’s father, uglier and more outdated than anything, that last through rain, snow, mud, and a nuclear disaster, without dying or showing signs of damage due to how well they are made, whereas a pair from the same brand and current ones last a sigh… like cars, fragrances, light bulbs, phones, etc.
I was surprised. Honestly, I feel it lacks the essence of the original Man In Black, a perfume I’m not a fan of and wouldn’t normally wear, though I do like it. It’s a more simplified, intense, and sweeter version. I don’t believe aromas have an age range, however, if you choose to believe that, this is a more youthful version. Another thing that surprised me was the longevity; being a Parfum, I normally would expect it to last and project more, but no, I feel it lasts the same as the original, losing intensity after a few hours and fading away around eight hours, with a projection of the same category as the original, perhaps slightly less. Anyway, it’s a delicious aroma; I just feel it has been oversimplified and sweetened too much. One could say it’s the Paco Rabanne-ised version of the EDP.
The dry down smells like incense sticks; the opening is intense and identical to the original, changing only about 20% compared to the original scent.
It follows the same primordial path as the original BMIB but deviates in the dry down to reach a new destination that is much spicier and darker, with a marked iris similar to Dior perfumes and elemi accords, while the tobacco, rum, and leather notes disappear. Being more impetuous, it is less versatile than the BMIB EDP and is not for daily use, but for special occasions like events and gatherings where you need to assert character and presence. Suitable for temperate and winter climates. It lasts around eight hours, but the last two are skin-only; it has an astringent projection for nearly two hours, with a moderate trail. This fragrance, being so impactful, behaves more like a flanker of the BMIB EDP than having a different percentage of essential oil concentration. If you are looking for the smell of the original 2014 Bvlgari Man In Black, I recommend BAVARIA Man Intense by Fragrance World, a 95% dupe of the original, improving longevity by far (+8 hours) and projection (+3 hours with a moderate trail) without losing quality and at an economical price.

Bvlgari Man in Black Parfum is a spicy, woody, and amber fragrance. It has a very spicy opening; you can detect the DNA of Man in Black, but this version is more intense in spices, possibly pepper and cardamom, plus some amber notes that give a dark sensation, like bitter chocolate. A bit later, floral notes emerge, adding balance to the spices and slightly reducing their intensity, settling into a very pleasant and sensual woody base. Like the original version, this is a fragrance aimed at fresh or cold seasons, such as autumn and winter, for daytime use on cold days, but mainly for evening wear in formal, informal, party, wedding, graduation, or concert settings, or dates. The projection promises good sensations for the first hour, but then drops abruptly to skin-level, although its longevity isn’t bad; with me, it lasted between 9 to 10 hours. However, the cost is very high (the reality is perfumeries have raised prices significantly); here in Mexico, the 100ml bottle costs $3,720 pesos, which is equivalent to over $200 in a department store at the moment. For its scent, it’s worth it; it’s one of the 2024 launches I’ve liked most, especially for those who already know the original, but regarding the price, unless you can find it at a lower cost, it’s something to think about.

A fairly spiced and warm opening that gives way to what I perceive (at least on my nose) as a kind of dark leather accompanied by iris. This latter note is one of the most prominent, almost from start to finish. In the dry down, it becomes an amber/woody/spiced aroma that reminded me very much of the classic Spicebomb by V&R. Definitely a fragrance for fresh temperatures given its warmth, and I’d also say that regarding its trail, it aims for the intimate. It’s a sweet fragrance that invites closeness… simply: to seduce. As for the performance, I’ve seen countless opinions and 90% of them are negative. While I acknowledge that the trail isn’t the best (which seems logical given the focus I find), I must say that in my case, the longevity is another story. On skin, it lasts between six and eight hours, while on clothes it can remain for more than twelve. I’ll be the exception. If so, I feel fortunate, as the aroma is very rich.
This should always have been the EDP, but marketing sold us the idea of ‘parfum’, ‘elixir’, and ‘attar’.
It’s delicious; it’s one of those aromas that grabs that unisex vanilla I’m usually not drawn to and transforms it into a proper masculine scent. But briefly, it’s the same Man In Black with no real differences. What I noticed is that in the dry down, there’s something new, perhaps some incense or leather accord that sits alongside what is popular today. However, knowing that they redesigned the bottle and relaunched the line, calling the classic MIB the MIB EDP, I believe that formula change over the years, which slowly transformed the living legend into a less deep fragrance, forced the brand to release a more intense version to revive this great perfume.
If I had to define Bvlgari Man In Black in one word, it would be character. From the very first moment, its strength is evident: rum and spices provide a warm, powerful opening, followed by a refined leather note that adds elegance and depth. Over time, it becomes more serene, revealing its amber base with sweet notes of tonka and benzoin. It has an enveloping presence, masculine and mature, ideal for cold nights or moments when you want to make an impression. The longevity is excellent, easily lasting more than eight hours, with a balanced projection that isn’t intrusive. It’s a fragrance that combines fire and calm, strength and wisdom. It’s one of those scents that you feel rather than just smell. I recommend it for confident men with a tranquil spirit but an intense soul. An absolute must-have for any autumn or winter collection.

Smells fantastic, but the performance is an absolute disaster. It doesn’t even last as long as the Nenuco I used to put on my baby. At this price point, I simply cannot recommend it.
Exquisite aroma… As for longevity, it’s worse than the Nenuco I used to put on my baby… at this price, I wouldn’t recommend it at all.
