Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ombre Leather 16 EDP
Tom Ford Ombre Leather 16 is a cult favourite, praised for its refined leather profile that’s smoother and greener than its bolder cousin, Tuscan Leather. It's truly a timeless leather fragrance.

Our Verdict - Ombre Leather - 470 EDP
No. 470 takes on Tom Ford Ombre Leather's tactile leather-labdanum core and delivers a recognisable, if simplified, version - the cardamom opening is louder and more one-dimensional than the original's smoky depth, and the leather reads flatter without Ombre Leather's resinous complexity.
