Which Should You Buy?
This one is pure marmite - you'll either love its bold, animalic oud and rose combo or recoil in disgust. Don't even think about a blind buy, and be prepared for an intense opening that polarises everyone, but a truly unique dry-down for the adventurous.
Noir de Noir dupes Tom Ford's dark rose-chocolate signature - the saffron-rose opening captures the original's brooding drama, but the dupe's chocolate-oud base fades to a light skin scent far sooner than the deep, resinous original.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Given its 'off the charts' projection and longevity, Myriad is completely overwhelming for everyday or casual settings. It's best reserved for special evening dates or formal events where its powerful and unique character can be appreciated rather than cause offence.
Seasons
A dark, heavy rose-chocolate oriental suited to cold weather and evening occasions, far too rich for summer.
Occasions
Dramatic and luxurious - built for evenings, dates and formal occasions rather than everyday wear.
