About this fragrance
Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.
Black Orchid Oud by Tom Ford (2012) is an Oriental Woody fragrance for women, composed by Calice Becker. The top notes read as a full pyramid: agarwood (oud), truffle, patchouli, vanilla, dark chocolate, incense, orchid, jasmine, musk, sandalwood, ylang-ylang, and citruses. This dense, layered opening immediately establishes the scent's warm spicy, earthy, and woody character, with oud and patchouli at the fore. The absence of separate heart and base notes means the composition unfolds as a continuous, rich tapestry rather than distinct phases.
Collectors will appreciate the 100% warm spicy accord, supported by 99% earthy and 98% woody tones, with 95% oud, 85% sweet, and 80% powdery facets. The dark chocolate and truffle add gourmand depth, while orchid and jasmine lend a floral counterpoint. This fragrance suits those who enjoy bold, opulent orientals with a pronounced oud signature. It is ideal for evening wear or cooler weather, and will appeal to collectors of Tom Ford's Private Blend line seeking a powerful, long-lasting scent.
