By Kilian launches Dark Lord in summer 2018. "Dark Lord "Ex Tenebris Lux' is a gentleman of the night. Meet him in the most surprising of circumstances and his mystery slowly unfolds: A head-twisting mix of shadows and light, it seduces in seconds with its elegant, long-lasting accords of leather and strong vetiver, its jasmine drenched in rum, and a dandyish entrance of bergamot and pepper. Under lock and tasseled key, a 1.7 oz. flacon is carved with the Achilles’ Shield as a symbol of protection and finished with monogram-engraved gunmetal details. A smiling skull rises like a monument atop a black lacquered wooden coffret, illuminating a display of grim magnificence." By Kilian Dark Lord is as a 50 ml Eau de Parfum.

Questions about Dark Lord

Does Dark Lord last in the heat?
Our estimate from its composition, until enough readers vote: longevity “long lasting”, and it is better in mild weather and cold weather than on a hot summer day.
Who is Dark Lord for, and in which season?
The house makes it for men. From its accords, we estimate it is best in autumn and winter.
