The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2015 by Tom Ford, Black Orchid Eau de Toilette is a rich and complex Oriental Floral fragrance that balances the earthy depth of truffle with the sweetness of black currant and ylang-ylang. The composition centers around the mysterious charm of the black orchid, which is complemented by an array of warm spices and balsamic notes like patchouli and incense. This scent is a proof of Tom Ford’s signature blend of luxury and sensuality, creating a fragrance that feels both intimate and commanding.

How to wear it

Apply one or two sprays to pulse points and allow it to settle for about 15 minutes before heading out. The truffle and black currant notes fade quickly, but the warm spices and balsamic base linger, making this fragrance best suited for evening wear.
