Smoky Cream is a double dose of the cream gene on a black base coat. This is the only time the Cream gene will physically affect a horse that is Black as this gene is an incomplete dominant it cannot affect black pigment unless it is in a homozygous state.
The difference between a smokey cream and a perlino is that a smokey cream DOES NOT carry the bay gene.
A horse can be tested to find out if he is a black based double cream dilute.... IF the results of the test showed that it has a Black base coat, does not carry the agouti (bay) gene and does carry two genes for cream, that makes it a smoky cream.
