Which Should You Buy?
A dark, velvety rose and truffle chypre that oozes decadent sensuality and gothic power. Not for the timid, this is a private blend for those who want their presence to linger and allure.
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
The dark rose, patchouli, oud and truffle create a deep, enveloping warmth that excels in the chill of fall and winter. Its richness and spicy undertones are less suited for high heat but can work in spring evenings.
Occasions
Its intense, opulent character and moderate boldness make it a standout for formal events and romantic evenings. Less suited to office or sporty settings due to its depth and sensual projection.
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.
