Noir Anthracite

Noir Anthracite is a 2017 chypre for men by Tom Ford, composed by Honorine Blanc. The top notes of Sichuan pepper, ginger, and bergamot open with a sharp, citrusy spice that quickly gives way to a heart of spices, galbanum, and jasmine—green and resinous with a subtle floral undertone. The base is a dense woody blend of ebony, cedar, birch, leather, sandalwood, patchouli, and amberwood, creating a dry, smoky, and earthy foundation. The fragrance is unapologetically woody (100% woody accord), with fresh spicy (75%) and warm spicy (64%) facets, supported by citrus (58%), leather (57%), and herbal (46%) nuances. This is a scent for collectors who appreciate a robust, old-school chypre structure with a modern intensity. It suits cool weather and evening wear, and will appeal to those who enjoy assertive, woody-spicy compositions with a leathery finish. Not for the faint of heart, but a rewarding choice for connoisseurs of dark, textured fragrances.
