This scent feels polished, seductive, and confident without being loud or obnoxious.

Performance

• Strength: Be careful — this one is stronger than it smells at first

• Projection: Moderate, with a polite scent bubble

• Longevity: Solid, especially for an office-friendly profile

It wears clean and refined, not screechy or synthetic.

Overall Take

If you judge White in Black as its own fragrance, not as a comparison, it’s an outstanding buy. Sweet, vanillic, peppery, and cedar-forward — this is a high-quality, modern masculine scent that feels far more expensive than it is.
