Reviews →Coal Diamond Night Fire is a thick oriental floral that leans heavily into dark fruits and tropical white flowers. It opens with a syrupy plum and star apple note that feels dense and humid. This 2012 release works best for evening events where the amber and vanilla base can linger on a leather jacket or wool coat.
