Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Noir Extreme Parfum

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.

Our Verdict - Amber Eau de Parfum

This is Prada's clean signature taken to luxurious new heights. It's an undisputed classic, offering an elegant interpretation of 'soapy' that's been widely loved for decades, despite some drama around reformulations.

Season and Occasion Fit

Noir Extreme Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

This is a powerfully sensual and luxurious scent, making it perfect for dates and evening events where you want to make a statement. Its intensity and occasionally divisive nature mean it's less suited for an office environment, and definitely not for casual daytime wear or sport.

Amber Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Autumn

Also Works:

Summer Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:

Office Casual Formal

Also Works:

Date

Its clean, inoffensive, soapy character makes it ideal for the office or casual wear. While it's sophisticated enough for formal events and can work for dates, its moderate projection keeps it from being a powerhouse for those occasions. It's generally too refined for sport.
