Tom Ford Velvet Orchid Eau de Parfum 100ml is a luxuriously textured floral oriental for women, launched in 2014 as a softer, more honeyed companion to the iconic Black Orchid. The composition opens on a warm bergamot, mandarin, succan absolute (rum extract) and honey accord, develops a complex floral heart of black orchid, velvet orchid, Turkish rose, jasmine, orange blossom, narcissus, hyacinth and heliotrope, and dries down on a richly textured base of Peru balsam, myrrh, labdanum, sandalwood, suede and vanilla.
About Tom Ford
Tom Ford launched his eponymous luxury fashion and beauty line in 2005 after a decade reshaping Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent. Tom Ford Beauty, developed in partnership with Estée Lauder, has set the modern standard for luxury makeup and prestige fragrance.

Who it's for
Velvet Orchid suits women who love rich, opulent floral oriental signatures with serious projection — confident, sensual and unapologetically grown-up. The honey-and-rum opening reads as warm and indulgent, while the suede-vanilla-balsam drydown gives it lasting depth. Best in autumn and winter for evenings, dinners and dressed-up occasions. A natural pick for fans of Tom Ford's wider Private Blend collection.
How to use
- Spray sparingly onto pulse points — wrists, the base of the neck and behind the ears — from around 15 cm away.
- The composition projects strongly; one or two sprays is usually sufficient.
- Avoid rubbing the wrists; the rich floral and oriental accord develops more gracefully when left undisturbed.
