Awesome video! I agree that Azzaro is excellent and APH often considered the greatest men’s fragrance of all time, so I think they’re actually highly rated, work with some of the finest parfumeurs in the industry, who do great work out of respect for the brand, great value too…
Hello Sir, i have used a full bottle of this. This is a exactly as u said opening is very pleasant and dry down its going to smell like a aftershave. Good for office and something formal only. I live in India Bangalore so it lasts around 3-4 hours for me since i perspire more.
I blind bought this (Silver Black) but then sold it. I think it's a good fragrance but not to my taste due to the musk which is pretty strong imo! I find it to be a little like a precursor to Dior Sauvage in some ways (no joke!), just a lot more musky and less of a pepper bomb. Definitely interested in trying Night Time.
Awesome review bro... I've used this about 5 years ago... Once bought a silver black and when it finished bought it as Onyx... I was thinking about getting this again a few days ago when I stumbled upon your review today... It's exactly how u described it... I really really really enjoyed this juice... Cheers 👍
I actually busy picked up a 100 ml of Silver Black at my local pharmacy here in Canada. I don't know if that means much of anything, but I just wanted to let you know that here in Canada, Silver Black is still available. My only issue with it is that my bottle is all black plastic. No silver band like the pictures I've seen, etc. I was a bit worried, but etched into the bottom of the bottle is all of the information. (Batch number, "Made in", size, name of juice, etc.) Just a few odd things that I thought I'd share. Take care and stay safe!
I felled in love with Azzaro in the late '80s and over the years this fragrance has been always in my collection. Azzaro Chrome gets me a lot of compliments too.
Awesome review my men , so far I only have azzaro chrome and haven't tested the others , have been in the reach for the rest of the line locally but had no luck, have a great week...
Fragrantica has different sets of notes listed for Onyx and Silver Black although most reviews state they're the same and there's a message on the box stating as such. One member of Basenotes suggested that maybe Onyx was reformulated at one point and maybe that accounts for some who smell a difference between the two. Have you checked the batch code to see your production date? From the video it looks like 0510084 which is a *Dec. 2014 production date* on Checkcosmetic.net. Is that batch code # correct? This post from Dec. 2012 indicates the fragrance was discontinued before 2014: www.basenotes.net/threads/314680-Azzaro-Onyx-vs-Azzaro-Silver-black-They-can-t-be-the-same-fragrance?p=2746294&viewfull=1#post2746294 It's possible your code has been recycled and our bottle could be an original from the end of 2004 as the fragrance was released in 2005. It would be nice if there was a site that had definitive dates that all fragrances weer discontinued. Regarding Azzaro Pour Homme, everyone I've recommended to recently loves it, but then again we're all middle aged men! I've loved it since I first purchased it in the early 1980's. Tnanks for a great review. The next time I order from an online discounter, I'll throw this into the cart.
mine is 0510054 , which is december 2014,you are correct. i am not quite sure about the reformulation, i take your word for it because you are an expert on the reformulation matters, but this bottle is available in all our major stores such as perfume world who distributes only authentic products, may be a reformulation or re release at some point from azzaro? and i agree on PH its a classic for middle aged men like us :) its so good and im lucky to have a tiny vintage bottle :)
Are you concerned about a Dec. 2014 date if some are saying it was discontinued in 2012? I have the same situation with a bottle of Zino Davidoff I bought a few months ago. It has a 2016 batch date and the scent was discontinued 4 years ago! I called Coty Fragrances who had purchased Zino.and discontinued it. They told me they would have to do some research. I received an email. I was hoping for a detailed explanation All the email said was "it's been discontinued". No date was mentioned and no surprise expressed by the company that Zino is still sold everywhere....nothing. I'm left to think that it was a recycled batch code and my bottle is 4 to 10 years old I don't think it's counterfeit because the longevity is great and the dry down is very similar to a 20 + year old sample of Zino that I have. At the very least I would have thought that Coty would purchase a few of the Zino bottles available all over the internet to see what's actually out there.
I used this when i was in University and i remember two gay guys came close to me and asked me what are you wearing? And i said azzaro silver black and their reaction was hmmmmmmmm. I was not aspecting that. Lol.
In fragrantica there's 2 different pyramids constructions for silver black and onyx... I have baught silver black and I have not tested onyx so I can't say about the smell.
This is a frag I'm going to keep an eye open for. I actually found the summer edition of azzaro pour homme with a mural like painting on it for rather cheap. Havent smelled it yet, but I wouldnt mind it in my collection just for the bottle.
yes i saw pictures, looks very holiday like...i wish i could sniff it somewhere but im sure its limited edition and rare.try this out and wait for the drydown...if you like you may get it...its very nice
HeyAmin,Good mornig bro,Great review as always,thx ,yes as you mentioned,Onyx and Black silver are 99% the same..well in my opinion,i do have the both but i do like Onyx more somehow??!of course i do like all parfumes from Azzaro's house,have some of the in my collection,this one it is my Nr.one from this house.Have a great day bro,thax once again,cheers
I've always liked black fragrances, the only one I didn't care much for was perry ellis 360 black, had a really weird smell kinda reminded me of cheap bathroom spray which is not good lol.
Great review bro! The funny thing about this fragrance is when I first smelled it in my 20's I hated it but now in my 30's I love it. Very unique transition in the dry down. 👍🏾
fragrantica and my friend who owns both said they are same, just different names...how are they different actually brother?different enough o get both?
Woah man, this is probably the best fragrance review on TH-cam. Thank you!

Joy, I have been watching your reviews for the last few months and enjoy them immensely. I also agree that the house of Azzaro is a hidden gem.

Excuse me, but does this smell kind of like narciso rodriguez for him edt?
Great video ! I am interested in this after realizing it has alot of the same notes as majd Al shabab sport by Ard Al zaafran
I Can't Wait For Buying The Azzaro Pour Homme Silver Black Because Joy Make Reacting The Smell!!!
In fragrantica there's 2 different pyramids constructions for silver black and onyx... I have baught silver black and I have not tested onyx so I can't say about the smell.
I just watched your review on elixir and this one on onyx. But if you had to choose one, which one would you pick?
Fresh and clean! A good affordable casual fragrance.
yes brother...very much withing everyones budget....love azzaro for their uniqueness and performance :)
Nice review, thanks Joy. Another underrated gem to tryout. M
thanks so much mr martin :) please try it out if you find a tester...you may like it...very nice handsome and under rated scent
looking at this one and Elixir, which do you recommend?
This is a frag I'm going to keep an eye open for. I actually found the summer edition of azzaro pour homme with a mural like painting on it for rather cheap. Havent smelled it yet, but I wouldnt mind it in my collection just for the bottle.
yes i saw pictures, looks very holiday like...i wish i could sniff it somewhere but im sure its limited edition and rare.try this out and wait for the drydown...if you like you may get it...its very nice
Joy Amin definitely will. when you mentioned the initial spray is even nicer than Sauvage, I knew I'd like it.
for now, this is the only fragrance where musk is not that disturbing to my nose... I would probably enjoy it more without the musk tho, but not bad
HeyAmin,Good mornig bro,Great review as always,thx ,yes as you mentioned,Onyx and Black silver are 99% the same..well in my opinion,i do have the both but i do like Onyx more somehow??!of course i do like all parfumes from Azzaro's house,have some of the in my collection,this one it is my Nr.one from this house.Have a great day bro,thax once again,cheers
oh wow...thanks for the update brother , now i am happier coz i got this instead of silver black :) you made my day man :) have an awesome day :)
I've always liked black fragrances, the only one I didn't care much for was perry ellis 360 black, had a really weird smell kinda reminded me of cheap bathroom spray which is not good lol.
thanks bro....I love your channel
Great review Joy! Another fine dope fragrance from Azzaro. Have you tried Elixir?

Onyx smells better.than silver.
Silver black and onyx are different fragrances
fragrantica and my friend who owns both said they are same, just different names...how are they different actually brother?different enough o get both?
