Velvet Eclipse with its notes: black orchid flowers, truffle, dark chocolate, patchouli

How it wears, from first spray to dry-down.

A fragrance changes on your skin over the day. This is what you'll notice, and roughly when.

  1. First spray Truffle and blackcurrantEarthy truffle and dark blackcurrant make a strange, rich first impression, with bergamot adding a flicker of light.
  2. As it settles Orchid and jasmineThe heart is orchid and jasmine, dark and velvety, with warm spice running through the petals.
  3. The dry-down Chocolate and patchouliDark chocolate, patchouli and vanilla finish it deep and plush, a shadowy sweetness.

A fraction of the price

No celebrity, no campaign and no department-store margin. You pay for what's in the bottle.

The mystery nobody at the table can solve.

Velvet Eclipse fits a dim velvet lounge, black flowers on the table and music low enough to talk over. It's dark, sweet and floral with something at its centre that's hard to pin down, and your jacket gives it away the next evening.

Does it smell exactly like Black Orchid?

It's our interpretation, not a copy. orchid and jasmine at the heart, chocolate and patchouli underneath.

How many sprays should I use?

Two or three is plenty. It's extrait, so start with less than you would with an eau de parfum: one on each side of the neck, or one on your chest under your shirt.

What does the two-tone label mean?

Every Inspired bottle is labelled for who it's made for: black for him, white for her and two-tone for anyone. Velvet Eclipse wears the two-tone label, so it's made for anyone.

Where is it made?

Adelaide. Australian made, bottle to box.

How fast is shipping?

Dispatched same or next business day. $10 Standard, free from $100, or $15 Express.
