Noir Extreme Eau de Parfum

Noir Extreme by Tom Ford

The Concept: The Modern Oriental
Noir Extreme is a sophisticated and sensual oriental fragrance that reimagines the classic Noir DNA with a gourmand twist. It evokes the atmosphere of an exclusive, dimly lit lounge: the warmth of spices, the sweetness of a decadent dessert, and the smooth, creamy scent of santalwood. It is intense without being loud, sweet without being cloying, and deeply alluring.

Olfactory Description:

This is a warm, spicy, and sweet gourmand-oriental fragrance with a creamy, smooth dry-down.

• Key Notes:

  • Top Notes: The opening is a bright, refreshing blend of Mandarin Orange, Neroli, and Cardamom. The citrus and spice provide an energetic and aromatic introduction.

  • Heart Notes: The heart is where the fragrance becomes truly addictive. The star here is a rich, creamy Kulfi (a traditional Indian ice cream) accord, complemented by the nutty sweetness of Pistachio and the floral richness of Orange Blossom and Jasmine Sambac. This creates a unique, gourmand heart that is both exotic and comforting.

  • Base Notes: The fragrance settles into a warm, woody, and ambery base of Sandalwood, Vanilla, and Amber. The sandalwood adds a creamy, smooth texture that blends perfectly with the vanilla, making the dry-down incredibly luxurious and long-lasting.

How it Wears:

• Scent Profile: Warm, spicy, creamy, and sweet.

• The Experience: The opening is spicy and aromatic, but quickly transforms into a rich, creamy, and nutty sweetness. The kulfi and pistachio notes are distinctive and make it stand out from other sweet fragrances. As it dries down, the sandalwood and vanilla take over, creating a smooth, cozy, and seductive aura that feels both modern and timeless.

• Longevity & Sillage: Excellent. This is a potent Eau de Parfum with strong projection for the first few hours and impressive longevity, often lasting 8-10+ hours on the skin.

The Bottle:

The bottle is a heavy, opaque black glass vessel with Tom Ford's signature sleek, minimalist design. The label is simple, featuring the Tom Ford logo and the fragrance name in clean, silver typography. The luxurious silver-accented cap adds a touch of modern elegance. The overall look is dark, sophisticated, and perfectly reflects the scent's mysterious and alluring character.

Who is it for?

• Audience: Primarily masculine, but unisex-friendly. It is a modern masculine scent that is bold and sophisticated enough to be worn by anyone who loves warm, sweet, and spicy fragrances.

• Occasion: Perfect for evenings, cooler weather, dates, and formal events. It is a great choice for a night out or a special occasion where you want to make a memorable impression.

• The Wearer: Someone who is confident, stylish, and has a taste for the finer things in life. The wearer of Noir Extreme is not afraid to stand out and appreciates a fragrance that is both luxurious and distinctive.
