The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2016, Black Orchid Perfume Lalique Edition by Tom Ford is a complex Oriental Floral fragrance that blends the richness of truffle and chocolate with the lushness of black currant and orchid. The composition opens with bright citrus notes from bergamot and lemon, which give way to an opulent heart of jasmine, ylang-ylang, and gardenia. As it settles into a base of patchouli, sandalwood, and vanilla, the fragrance reveals its earthy warmth and powdery depth, creating a sense of indulgence and sophistication.

How to wear it

This fragrance blooms slowly and lasts for hours, so apply it lightly to pulse points. It pairs well with the warmth of indoor settings, making it perfect for evenings or special occasions when you want a scent that evolves throughout the night.
