A cult favorite Lampblack fuses darkness and light to create an almost industrial atmosphere of sophistication and refinement. Inspired by the smell of ink, the formula includes cypriol (also called nagarmotha), a root related to vetiver with a petroleum-like note that recalls oud. Sweet orange, bitter grapefruit, and crisp black pepper create bright, colorful contrasts with the woody-smokey ink notes.
“Lampblack launched my career as a perfumer. I created it for an exhibition of small ink paintings that featured opaque, black India Ink contrasting with transparent, vivid colors. The art was dark and shadowy but also glowed with light and color.
Lampblack gets its name from Lampblack pigment which is used to make India Ink. Historically, it was made with soot collected from oil-burning lamps.
For the fragrance, I developed an accord that smelled like ink. I used the essential oil of nagarmotha, a root related to vetiver, which has a slight petroleum odor. I wanted it to have the almost industrial smell of a printmaker’s workshop. As a contrast, I added a sparkling citrus accord to give it shimmering brightness.” -Bruno Fazzolari
