Noir Extreme Parfum vs No.289 Noir Extreme Eau de Parfum
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
A truly polarising Tom Ford, Noir Extreme Parfum inspires devotion and disdain in equal measure. It's either an opulent, creamy gourmand masterpiece that lasts for ages and gets showered in compliments, or an artificial, fleeting mess that smells of cigarettes, raisins, or even urine. Don't blind buy this one.
Modelled on Tom Ford Noir Extreme, Eden's take leans into the same cardamom-and-kulfi gourmand warmth but renders it flatter and sweeter, with a louder vanilla-amber opening that fades faster than the original's slow-burn spice. A budget way to try the vibe, not a twin.
