Tom Ford Noir Eau de Parfum wraps a suave spicy amber aura in a soft powdery glow, opening with violet, pink pepper, caraway, bergamot, and verbena before a luxurious heart of Tuscan iris, Bulgarian rose, black pepper, nutmeg, geranium, and clary sage unfurls, finally settling into a memorable trail of Indonesian patchouli, amber, vanilla, leather, civet, opoponax, benzoin, vetiver, and styrax.

Story and Positioning
Noir presents Tom Ford’s signature play of light and shadow in a refined masculine register, balancing urbane polish with a private, smoldering sensuality. Within the broader Noir family, the Eau de Parfum introduced the theme in 2012 and was followed by Noir Eau de Toilette in 2013 and Noir Extreme in 2015, with further spins such as Noir Extreme Parfum and Noir Pour Femme expanding the idea into different intensities and moods. This elegant spicy amber is often compared with Dior Homme Intense 2011, Prada Amber Pour Homme Intense, and Guerlain Habit Rouge, making it a compelling choice for wearers who enjoy plush iris, resin, and leather facets with modern flair.
Bottle and Design
The bottle is a glossy black rectangle with clean lines and a weighty presence in hand. A vertically ribbed cap crowns the flacon, while crisp Tom Ford Noir lettering appears in silver on the front. The minimalist architecture and deep lacquered look echo formal eveningwear, creating a presentation that feels sleek, confident, and timeless.
