The Black Knight by Francesca Bianchi is a gothic, intense, and sophisticated leather fragrance inspired by the historical figure Giovanni Dalle Bande Nere (John of the Black Bands), an Italian condottiero (mercenary captain) from the Renaissance who belonged to the illustrious Medici family.
This perfume features a bold, aromatic leather heart, enriched with earthy and green, woody accents, at times enveloped in a powdery softness and hints of petroleum. Imagine the scent of a military camp: the sweetness of wild shrubs, the smoke from a campfire, the smell of leather horse tack. A powdery rose – symbolizing his secret lover – softens the harsh core of vetiver, the true protagonist of this fragrance.
A creation that is both raw and gothic-dark yet elegant and refined. If you love leather fragrances, you should try this beloved masterpiece from Francesca Bianchi’s collection.

Probably the worst perfume I've tried, and it just sticks to the clothes, which is normally a good thing only if it was nice to smell.
