The Black Knight is a gothic, intense and sophisticated perfume inspired by the historical character Giovanni Dalle Bande Nere (John of the Black Bands), an Italian mercenary captain of the Renaissance who belonged to the glorious Medici family. Reminiscent of this character’s stoic commitment to his cause, his loyalty, and his Spartan way of life, this perfume captures the atmosphere of a military encampment and is further narrated by the smell of wild shrubs, the smoke of camp fire and the bridle leather of horse tacks. Later delving deeper into the soul of this stern character, a romance is revealed by the introduction of a secret mistress, a powdery rose that stirs up a heart of vetiver. The vetiver being the true protagonist of this story.

FRANCESCA BIANCHI
All my perfumes are created by me in my laboratory. It takes between 6 months and 4 years or more to come up with a formula for a new fragrance. A family-run company based in Grasse, France, which processes raw materials for fine perfumery, mixes the compound for me and sends it to a manufacturing company in Milan, Italy, to complete the production: maturing in alcohol, filtering, bottling and packaging. I am mostly inspired by the power of what it means to be human, by the wish to connect with people’s inner life, the desire to spark an emotion in them and make them feel at home in their own bodies, offer solace, or just a quick fix for a bad day. Olfactory signals travel with no mediation – just in a couple of synapses – to the limbic system, the place assigned to memory and emotions in our brain. As a result, the reaction triggered by the sense of smell is biologically inescapable, not liable to manipulation. It therefore fully satisfies our longing for authenticity. My perfumes have gained a reputation for being sensual and provocative, probably as a consequence of that focus on human nature and intimacy.  -Francesca BianchiThe original bottle(s) shown below are not available for purchase.
