Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the pyramid as published, not a timing claim. Each note's timing follows its listed tier, where it usually sits across many published pyramids (from ScentPrism) and its vapour pressure. A note comes through as the notes usually listed before it fade, judged from how other pyramids order the same pair. The thickness of a ribbon shows the note's share of what is left on the skin, which tracks how strongly it smells, because odour thresholds rise with vapour pressure. The shares come from how prominent wearers vote each note. It is a simple model, not a measurement.

About

Tom Ford's Black Orchid, launched in 2006, is an inky, truffled floral, and this Match Fragrances Eau de Parfum follows its pattern. It opens with a lot going on: truffle, gardenia, blackcurrant, bergamot, jasmine and ylang-ylang, all at once, dark and slightly earthy with a floral sweetness on top. At the centre orchid and spice sit alongside lotus wood and a fruity note, keeping the mix velvety rather than sharp. The base is where it settles into something rich. Dark chocolate, patchouli, incense, vanilla, sandalwood and vetiver give a long, resinous, slightly smoky finish. Projection is moderate and it stays fairly close, lasting a good few hours. It suits the cold months and evenings, when its heaviness feels intended.
