Composition
Black III is a unisex extrait de parfum from Widian, launched in 2015 and created by Ali Aljaberi and Jean-Claude Astier. It opens with Spearmint and Bergamot, reveals a heart of Leather and Dry Wood, and settles into Sandalwood, Patchouli, Moss and Vanilla. Its character is defined by aromatic, fresh spicy and leather accords.
To me this smells like a leather-bound diary left open in a pine forest — spearmint and bergamot cold and sharp as the first page, then leather, dry wood and sandalwood taking over, worn and dark as old secrets. Patchouli deepens it, moss grows at the edges, vanilla softening the spine. It is the Widian darkness: elegant, brooding, a little gothic. The scent of someone who writes poetry and means it. The vanilla softens only the edges; the leather heart stays dark, unrepentant, and completely magnetic. Not for beginners — beginners stay away.
