Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Velvet Orchid EDP
Velvet Orchid by Tom Ford is widely celebrated as Black Orchid's more approachable, floral, and boozy sister. It's a luxurious, deep, and sensual scent that evokes a certain 'rich auntie' vibe, though it can polarise with its strong powdery and occasionally sharp floral notes.
Acquired
Our Verdict - No.477 Velvet Orchid EDP
Eden's alternative to Tom Ford Velvet Orchid keeps the rummy, orchid-forward heart intact, but the sprawling floral bouquet renders flatter and the balsamic base fades sooner than the plush, long-wearing original.
