Tom Ford Black Orchid Eau de Toilette 100ml Spray is the more luminous, dressed-down EDT version of Tom Ford's most iconic feminine pillar Black Orchid — first launched in 2006. The EDT reinterprets the original's signature dark, dressed-up oriental DNA in a slightly fresher, lighter register, with the same iconic black orchid, dark chocolate, truffle and vanilla notes recognisable to fans worldwide.

The story behind Black Orchid
Black Orchid translates Tom Ford's signature dressed-up dark luxury aesthetic into perfumery. The truffle-and-gardenia opening adds a dressed-up, recognisable lift; the black orchid heart pulls in the brand's iconic floral signature; and the chocolate-vanilla-incense base extends the trail into a long, sensual sillage. The EDT version softens the signature for slightly more daytime wear.

Suited to wearers who love rich, dressed-up Tom Ford luxury — fans of Tom Ford Black Orchid EDP, Tobacco Vanille or Velvet Orchid will find the EDT a familiar match. Year-round wear with particular strength in autumn and winter; ideal for evening, dinner and special-occasion use.
