Matchmaker Black Diamond Pheromone Cologne
+ The case for
  • + A sophisticated cedar, lemon, blackcurrant and amber-musk scent
  • + A two-compound layer (androstenol, estratetraenol)
  • + Among the brand's best-reviewed products
– Where it falls short
  • Still a lifestyle product, with the community skeptical of Eye of Love's potency
  • The darker scent profile isn't universal
The full review

Our testing notes.

Matchmaker Black Diamond Cologne is the men's anchor of Eye of Love's best line, and one of its best-reviewed products overall. It pairs androstenol and estratetraenol under a refined scent of cedar and lemon over blackcurrant and oak, on an amber-musk base.

The fragrance is the strength, sophisticated, slightly dark and well-suited to evenings, while the two-compound layer gives it a bit more pheromone credibility than the brand's single-compound listings, with the usual caveat about Eye of Love's doubted potency.

I've noticed stronger connections and more positive interactions with people since I started using them.
-

For a man who wants the brand's most polished, well-reviewed cologne, Black Diamond is the pick. It's a lifestyle fragrance rather than an enthusiast concentrate, but a genuinely good one within that lane.
