“Rum-soaked leather and lava rock — dressed in black, permanently.”

The take
What works
- ●Rum, tobacco, and leather that earns the 'black' in the name
- ●Solid longevity that holds through an evening
- ●Head-turning fall/winter signature at mid-tier pricing
Trade-offs
- ●Pure cold-weather evening — wrong everywhere else
- ●Heavy enough that 1 spray is genuinely the maximum
