Tom Ford Velvet Orchid Eau de Parfum envelops the skin in a rich floral oriental glow, opening with a liqueur like rush of rum and honey brightened by mandarin and bergamot, then blooming into a velvet orchid accord woven with jasmine, rose oil, orange blossom, heliotrope and narcissus, before settling into a deep trail of vanilla, myrrh, suede, labdanum, Peru balsam and sandalwood for an opulent yet inviting signature.

Story & Positioning
Velvet Orchid extends the Tom Ford Black Orchid universe toward a more luminous and feminine expression that is plush with florals and edible warmth. Think of it as the seductive satin counterpart to the darker original, where creamy vanilla and resin glow around the orchid heart. It sits beautifully for evening events, celebrations, and cool weather, projecting confidence without feeling harsh. If you enjoy luxurious floral amber styles with a touch of boozy sweetness, Tom Ford Velvet Orchid will feel instantly at home and is often preferred by those who want the sensual aura of Black Orchid in a softer, more floral register.
Bottle & Design
Presented in Tom Ford’s ribbed flacon finished in deep amethyst glass, the bottle carries a gold name plaque and a tied cord with the TF pendant at the neck. The lines are architectural and clean, weighty in hand and designed to look decadent on the vanity while remaining practical to use.
