Tom Ford Lavender Palm is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2011, created by Yann Vasnier. Lavender Palm opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Lavender, and Clary Sage, settles into a heart of Palm Leaf, Linden Tree, White Oleander, and Pink Pepper, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Vetiver, Oakmoss, and Tonka Bean. Tom Ford's Lavender Palm carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

A truly divisive Tom Ford, Lavender Palm is either a fresh, sophisticated take on lavender, or a medicinal, quickly fading disappointment. Its high price point only magnifies the love-it-or-hate-it reactions, especially for a discontinued scent that now fetches a premium.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

Its fresh and clean profile makes it suitable for casual and even office wear, but generally subtle longevity keeps it from being too attention-grabbing. The more relaxed, summer vibe, sometimes compared to sunscreen, reduces its suitability for formal events or evening dates.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Lavender Palm opens with a sharp, vibrant burst of lavender and lively citrus, brightened by aldehydic zing. This soon softens, letting fresh pink pepper, green palm leaf, and delicate linden blossom emerge. As it settles, a smooth, creamy base of tonka bean, earthy oakmoss, and cedar provides a comforting, slightly salty finish.
