Tom Ford Black Orchid Voile de Fleur is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2007, created by David Apel. Black Orchid Voile de Fleur opens with Ylang-Ylang and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Lily, Gardenia, Orchid, and Honeysuckle, and dries down to a base of Milk, Resin, Fruity, and Sandalwood. Tom Ford's Black Orchid Voile de Fleur carries an Acquired verdict, a fruity-led wear.

A fascinating, divisive Tom Ford flanker that, despite being a softer take on Black Orchid, still manages to be a powerful, seductive white floral. Its longevity is hit-or-miss, but when it clicks, it truly blooms.

While a lighter take on Black Orchid, its potent white floral and warm spicy accords make it a serious presence, better suited for evenings and special occasions where its sillage can be appreciated without overwhelming others. Some find it wearable casually, but its strong character limits its office appropriateness.

About

Voile de Fleur opens with a lush burst of white florals, led by heady gardenia and ylang-ylang, underpinned by the dark juiciness of blackcurrant and plum. As it develops, a creamy, lactonic sweetness emerges, intertwined with a touch of warming cinnamon, earthy patchouli, and sensual sandalwood, providing a deep, lingering allure that balances the opulent florals.
