What it is:Black Tie is a unisex woody-oriental / powdery floral eau de parfum released in 2019 as part of Céline’s Haute Parfumerie collection. It is conceived as a “couturier’s perfume,” embodying the brand’s signature elegance — think a tailored black tuxedo in scent form. Fragrance story:Black Tie unfolds like stepping into a dimly lit, refined soirée: the scent feels like polished satin and midnight sophistication. A soft, powdery caress of white orris butter meets warm, creamy vanilla and musk, while cedar and tree moss give the composition structure — grounding the sweetness in a woody-earthy frame. The result is an elegant, understated perfume that captures androgynous chic and refined restraint.
