If you’re shopping for a timeless, luxurious fragrance that infuses you with confidence and gives you an irresistible presence, look no further than Tom Ford’s Noir collection. Here, Tom Ford’s Noir truly comes into its own – developing into a scent that oozes mystery and a heavy, dark unknown. The further addition of dark patchouli, along with the golden vanillic glaze, fully transforms Tom Ford’s Noir into a truly dark, foreboding fragrance. Velvety vanilla and silky amber combine with dark, gourmand accents near the base. But once Noir’s initial sharpness fades, it becomes incredibly powdery, gradually taking on the characteristics of something much richer and more profound. Rather, it’s pleasant and well balanced – placing sassy and sweet flowers on one hand and warm, masculine spices on the other. The scent is not all that black or dark in this initial stage. All this is balanced over a cool, aromatic heart of clary sage and geranium. The fragrant sweetness of verbena and the delicious tang of bergamot rise from the spicy heat of pink pepper and caraway. Combined with warmer spice notes, they fill the once-gloomy room with a sophisticated, dark, and exquisite aroma.īut for something so dark and enigmatic, Tom Ford’s Noir cologne certainly opens with a bright flash.
