Our best-selling scent and the fragrance that launched FZOTIC. Lampblack balances inky nagarmotha root with bright grapefruit and pepper, conjuring the air of a printmaker’s studio—where darkness and light meet. Awarded four stars by Luca Turin, it’s been a fan favorite ever since. Looking for samples? Try Lampblack in ourMoonlight Discovery Set!
Lampblack launched my career as a perfumer. I created it for an exhibition of small ink paintings that featured opaque, black India Ink contrasting with transparent, vivid colors. The art was dark and shadowy but also glowed with light and color.
Lampblack gets its name from Lampblack pigment which is used to make India Ink. Historically, it was made with soot collected from oil-burning lamps.
For the fragrance, I developed an accord that smelled like ink. I used the essential oil of nagarmotha, a root related to vetiver, which has a slight petroleum odor. I wanted it to have the almost industrial smell of a printmaker's workshop. As a contrast, I added a sparkling citrus accord to give it shimmering brightness.
Sophisticated cocktails. Brisk autumn evenings. Chance encounters in city streets.

As a graphic designer, Lampblack really speaks to me...there is nothing like the mix of incense and xylol (ink thinner)...reminds me of the days I did presschecks for clients. :-)
All of the scents I've gotten from Fzotic have been outstanding, though Lampblack is the one I have in the heaviest rotation (I think I'm on my 3rd bottle now). A truly unique and magnificent scent!

A great Journey
Taken back to early school days; fresh ink from the teacher's handout, longing to find that aroma. Today, the pairing of a freshly opened bottle of cola, the phisssh from the cap to the nose, and, sliced orange for my snack, while wearing Lampblack. I love it! The packaging covey's artistic curiosity.

Mysterious Lampblack
I can not distinguish the different notes in Lampblack. There is no dry down. It is consistently mysterious. It is more yang than yin. I am more yin than yang. I wear it on red lipstick days. It lasts for hours!
