Gourmand Tobacco Harmony
Inspiration: Rekindle small fires in the darkest of nights, under blackest skies that hold the brightest of stars.
Fragrance story: Languid honey laced with sweet spices mingles with mysterious smoky incense essence and vanilla absolute, making Back to Black, aphrodisiac a nourishingly yet addictive substance. Blue camomile and cedarwood are veiled in smoke. A sandalwood note creates a gourmand tobacco harmony–a true titillation for the senses.
Key notes: Cedarwood, Incense, Honey
Olfactive Family: Cellars – Woods in all their forms – from sandalwood to cedarwood, from patchouli to Vetyver – but always with a Kilian twist: rum, coffee, cacao, cognac, whisky, as a reminder of Kilian Hennessy’s heritage.
Perfumer: Calice Becker
The perfume Back to Black, aphrodisiac is part of the KILIAN Smokes family. Figurative or abstract, Kilian’s smokes capture the timeless scent of Bakhoor, incense, tobacco.
A lot of attention is taken in each bottle of KILIAN refillable perfume, to make them real precious objects. The perfume bottles of the smokes family are adorned with a distinctive black lacquer and their bottle has been meticulously engraved on each side, with the representation of the Achilles shield. Like Kilian Hennessy says : « In perfumery, it is as much about seduction as it is about protection”. A silver metal plate on which the name of the perfume is engraved by hand adds an extra touch of sophistication.
These details bring to the KILIAN creation a guarantee of luxury, that should not be ephemeral, but should last a lifetime. That’s why the bottle of this cellar perfume can be refilled indefinitely.
Iris Malikhân
The experience: the mind-blowing discovery of flourishing iris fields on the edge of a desert.
The surprising contrast: verdant and powdery iris contrasts with a combination of vanilla and leather, turning this scent into an intoxicating and addictive accord.

The waning daylight is an invitation to halt in the ochre hills of Tuscany. At this very moment, the evening reveals fragrances in all their glory. The warm notes of cypress waft from the undergrowth creating an impression of everlasting peace, as the scent of the lemon trees rolls down the hillside. A typical Italian landscape and the setting of Memoirs of Hadrian.
