here and enjoy that video but today we're going to talk about the whole line so before I really
dive into this one let me go back ways until 2012 when the first Noir was introduced in
the market so the Years 2012 Tom Ford releases this Noir fragrance which when you think about
the name Noir you think about Noir de Noir from private blend which was this really amazing rose
and truffle cocoa patchouli kind of fragrance very romantic very seductive which
don't really get much talks these days but it's quite a great fragrance so that's what
came to mind when I first got this fragrance I was like wow, I love the bottle the
black on silver colors came here Tom Ford Noir 2012 was another an edp release
and it was quite bold and here's the thing with Tom Ford fragrances a lot of times as
we've seen with even when he worked for other companies like YSL with M7 or Gucci
with Gucci Pour Homme One, his releases as we've seen through the years were always a little bit ahead
of its time because he pushed the envelope and this is exactly what he did here with Noir this
is going to be a patchouli cocoa a little bit of a wet Violet Leaf kind of a Vibe really different
than anything you could possibly imagine if you haven't tried this fragrance and you do try I'm
telling you from the get-go when you first get your nose on here especially when you spray it
on it's going to be a little bit weird it's going to be a little bit daring so
obviously sales didn't do so well so Tom Ford had to discontinued this in my opinion this is a gem
of a fragrance it's still around it's still kicking around of course all the fragrances here I'll
have it linked below if I find it so you guys can also try to get it and you can also try before
you buy it at perfuum.com they do have it in stock this one here I have to say it's a very
seductive romantic and dark type of a scent Noir of course means dark so it's very fitting to the name
but it has some really daring components that wet Violet Leaf the cocoa Patchouli that's a little
bit earthy Tom Ford Noir is really classified as a floral leather fragrance some of the most
predominant notes here are going to be iris leather opoponax rose and there's a nice note of civet here
which makes this even more on the animalistic side of things but nevertheless to me this is
a masterpiece from 2012 and sad to see it go but it's still around and this is the one that started
the whole line of Noir fragrances for Tom Ford. Past forward to 2013 Tom Ford gave us Tom Ford
Noir Eau de toilette which was that white clear bottle with the black cap which I don't have the
bottle anymore I actually traded I swapped it in my group Emporium of Scents on Facebook I'm going
to pop the bottle here so you see what it looks like Transitions and everything notes you guys
know the drill the main thing about the Noir Eau de toilette is that basically they substituted that
civet note for a white musk note and introduced heavier citruses up top which you didn't have
with the original Noir eau de Parfum, that's basically it, the performance was good but it was
a lighter version and I do tend to gravitate towards darker scents so I wanted
to just trade off that fragrance but I tell you I do miss that it's still kicking around around
websites and I'm definitely going to pick up a bottle because I want to revisit that fragrance
but nevertheless that was 2013 Noir eau de toilette. Past forward two years later 2015 we have this
Juggernaut of a Gourmand floral fragrance from Sonia Constant this is Tom Ford Noir Extreme.
You've seen this fragrance on a ton of different top videos fall winter seductive
romantic complement getter this fragrance checks all the boxes but I have to tell even though this
is an androgynous scent which is very unisex gender free however you want to nominate this
it is quite floral ambery and spicy but I do think now as we get to the new parfum I'm going to
tell you exactly what I think about it I do think that the parfum version leans a little more in a
masculine side if you compare them side by side but this is nevertheless an outstanding great
scent we're talking cinnamon along with that coffee dessert that you get here ambery notes
vanilla spices cardamom hint of Tonka and vanilla in the base it is absolutely delicious delectable
and a compliment magnet type of a scent I'm sure you guys heard of this one this is one of the
ones that stayed on the collection he really focused on the extreme collection so much so
that we have an extreme parfum now and all the other noirs have been discontinued but this 2015 release
is an outstanding release that if you do have a sweet tooth definitely check it out and I did a
full review on this when it was first released I'm going to pop it up here on the card so you
guys can check it out. Past forward two years later we are now at 2017 and Tom Ford gave us
Tom Ford Noir Anthracite, talk about a divisive and polarizing scent that's exactly what this
fragrance was, I actually have a review of this I'm going to pop it up here as soon as it
came out I grabbed it because I tried this at the store and I immediately was drawn to it because
this fragrance has a very prominent late 70s early 90s Powerhouse type feel this was Tom Ford paying
homage to the great Powerhouse of the 70s and 80s l love the stuff it's bold it's green it's going to
give you a feel of a vetiver along with Oak moss in a very dark and earthy patchouli in the base
I love this stuff it's bold it's powerful it's exactly the type of fragrances I like it's Earth
it's a little bit Smoky as well incredible has a little bit of a mineral kind of a feel that's
why it's called anthracite but it was not for everyone so much so that shortly after I believe
a year or two later this fragrance was permanently discontinued and it's very hard to find now 100ml
like this will cost you US$300 to 400 dollars on the aftermarket just saying this is
an outstanding fragrance to me one of the best if not my favorite along with the original Noir from
the brand. And all of these Tom Ford Noir line I think all the fragrances had one signature
profile in common with all of them which is the leathery undertone whether that leather was paired
with spicier and sweeter components or darker and smokier components the leather was really the
scent profile and the signature of this collection this one in particular the Noir Anthracite
that I just talked about it's going to have this peppery ebony wood Patchouli and vetiver kind
of a dry down which I absolutely love. So let's talk about the newest rendition of this line their
iteration of Tom Ford, Noir Extreme Parfum 2022, what has changed? what is different? so this fragrance
here when you compare it to the 2015 release the eDP not the parfum, they're going to be quite similar in the
opening when you compare them side by side however if you try them on skin side by side they're going
to diverge in a particular scenario: the original 2015 eau de parfum is going to be
more floral sweeter and definitely more amber in the base which makes it even creamier along with
the sandalwood that that fragrance has this one here does not have Sandalwood so it's going to be
Sharper the green cardamom here along with the ginger is going to be very sharp some people
are actually going to be turned away or turned off by the initial spray however if
you wait a little bit as the fragrance warms up on your skin the magic does begin in fact I do
favor this one over the 2015 release I think like again I was saying before to you guys this one
here leans a little bit more masculine it's got more complexity to it it's a little smokier darker
earthier the kind of fragrances that I do like so this is spicier darker and sharper and also
smokier compared to the original which is smoother creamier sweeter and more floral. I'll be honest
with you I love both but I do favor this one here because mostly of the dry down the dry down is
going to give you this leathery Smoky ambery facet along with the guaiac wood which really lends this
Smoky green pine needles and vetiver kind of a dry down which I am a sucker for that different
fragrances so this one here really takes the cake it is more masculine it's a little bit more rugged
this one is also androgynous gender free but I have to be honest with you I think this one here
definitely leans towards masculine because of these darker and sharper notes that
the original does not have which has more of a smoother edge.
The million dollar question: does this remind me of anything else? what does this resemble? I always
share with you guys basically it's a spicier darker version of the original that's about it.
Who would enjoy this? I see anyone that enjoys spicy ambery leather darker scents I
like spicy ambery woody spicy kind of scents will love this the old oriental fragrance
is now called ambery fragrances well absolutely love this one hence the fact that I said it is
definitely androgynous. Seasons and occasions best suited for Tom Ford Noir extreme Parfum
is definetely nighttime definitely romantic settings definitely dressier occasions however seasons are
fall and winter no questions about it but you can get away with this in cooler summer nights or
early spring time when it's not really really hot anything above 75-80 degrees Fahrenheit for
those of you that are in this system you will be a little bit clawing for yourself
and for those around you so you have to control the sprayers if you're going to be in controlled
environments with air conditioning you might be able to get away with this but again dressier
or more evening wear type of occasions. The performance for Tom Ford Noir Extreme Parfum is absolutely
strong it's going to last eight to ten hours if you spray your clothes it'll be 10 plus to
just spray on skin about seven to eight going strong it'll project very very strong for the
next two hours once applied so actually it's quite good above average high performance fragrance
I love it but most importantly the sillage the scent bubble is absolutely monstrous with this
fragrance. My final thoughts on this particular fragrance guys I think it's definitely I don't
think I'm telling you it's an improvement from the original it is definitely a great flanker I
love when brands do that it's not just a flanker mooching off a fragrance that's popular
and giving us money grabs this is not a money grab they took a lot of the great qualities
in essences of the original making it a better darker spicier version of that fragrance
that is exactly what a flanker should be so kudos to Tom Ford I love this stuff I want to
see more designer companies following suit to this particular flanker I do love this fragrance
on a rating right now if I had to get it from 5 being a mediocre release to a
10 being an outstanding release it's going to be right around 8.5 I think it's a great
release for 2022. I think the price point might scare you off but again you can always try before
you buy it at perfuum.com there's a code below, once it becomes available at fragrancebuy.ca which is the best
discounter out there you can actually pick this up get it shipped fast and try it on skin live
with it see if you love it I love the fragrance eight and a half I think it's something that I'm
going to be really rocking in the next colder months fall and winter for sure. Let me know your
thoughts below everyone how do you feel about Tom Ford overall right now I know this particular
brand is a little bit divisive especially with the original Noir and anthracite let me know which one
is your favorite my favorite if I have to put them side by side I have to tell you anthracite
is definitely my favorite, Noir second, and third right now is this particular new release Extreme Parfum.
