- Hello Friends, In this video I discuss/review the 2024 release from Tom Ford Private Blend - Black Lacquer. This is a popular collection with the likes of Oud Wood, Tuscan Leather, Ombré Leather 16, Lost Cherry, Oud Wood, Noir de Noir, Soleil Blanc, Bitter Peach etc... Is this another disappointment or a comeback for TF....
Thanks for watching!

This strongly reminded me of Donna Karan Black Cashmere, one of my most loved fragrances. Imagine this profile was to be found in the designer isle in the past and now you have to pay so much.
Interesting... I just looked it up, similar notes, made by potentially the same perfumer too! Yeah, it's a shame the way prices are these days
Very thoughtful, thank you.
Thank you!
Nice score! I think I'd buy it if I come across it at the Estee outlet store here.
Excellent! Yes, this smells like it will end up there sooner rather than later
I've only seen Bois Marocaine, some of the rose one's, the myrrh one, and some of the white bottled ones at the cosmetic store so far. For Frederic malle I seen synthetic jungle and geranium. It would be great to find one of the Malle ouds there!
This was a standout for me. I find indie scents go too far, this is just right for me. I won't support the pricing though so I will appreciate at the counter only :D
Yes, couldn't agree more.. balance is key.
Pricing is out of touch... I am a counter appreciator myself 😁
Great review!
Thank you!
First! Much love 💕
Cheers Carl🫂
@@ScentZatura I just want to know who makes the new Tom Ford fragrances. Your guesses were really good 👍
Thanks mate! Yeah, its strange when the other Estée Lauder brands aren't hiding it.
I never understood Tom Ford tiers. Fragrances moving up into Private or dropping down to signature. I walk by the counter and there's 50+ bottles and I'm overwhelmed. But that's just me! 🤷♂
Haha.. yeah, they are up there with Guerlain in terms of moving things around all the time. There's also "Reserve Collection" and "Parfums" within the Private Blend 😅
Checked it out at a fancy store here, and the sticker price is beyond ridiculous. This price-gouging needs to stop, stat.
Ah yes, the ever increasing TF prices are getting out of hand
I really love the 100 ml bottle design. I’m curious if Tom Ford has made any improvements to the sprayer. It feels like they’re finally back in the game, which is nice to see.
They have stopped 100ml for some of the fragrances... wonder why as it's the standard size. So far, this is only in 30/50/250ml.
Yes! I forgot to mention it... the sprayer is better in this, feels more pressurized.
I do hope, TF don't fall back to their regular schtick after this...
@@ScentZatura An obvious reason is that the 30 ml and 50 ml bottles probably (or definitely) bring in more profit. Plus not many people will buy 250 flacon anyway. Unfortunately, in this case, I’d go for the 100 ml Black Lacquer since the all-black design is just too good to pass up.
Yes, that's definitely a good point. They don't even supply 100ml to some outlets it seems. It will be interesting to see whether they'll do 100ml of Black Lacquer in the future..
💪in acquisition of bottle. I suspect that the majority of buyers do not spend enough time with their fragrances. But, many like to roll this way;)
Thanks Uncle Bob! Yes, 2 days is too fast to decide. Guess some are sure about what they are looking for. Now let's wait and see if our Dubai partners do their take on this... I wonder what the name will be
I can’t tell if you are relieved that this doesn’t completely suck and is pretty good or if you’re excited about and it’s great. That’s the sense I get from Rich too.
Lol.. It's very good yes.. not as great as the old TF Glory days
@@ScentZatura you’ve piqued my interest about CdG Black. Play:Black is also of interest I found a bottle of Play:Green this year and really enjoy it
Black is excellent! It's smoky without overbearing..
Congrats on your purchase sir, looks like a batman's bottle 🦇
Thanks mate!
Haha.. Batman does like a lacquered aesthetic (◣_◢)
No chance I’m buying it but the review makes me curious.
Haha... totally see where you are coming from.
What Lubin is that? you should do a review on Akkad and Korrigan, those are masterpieces imo
edit: now i heard you say Idole de Lubin, i made this comment before i started watching the video lol
Lol.. Yes, Idole de Lubin is a gem from the old days of Fragcomm. I also like Akkad and Korrigan. Hope to cover them in the future. Lubin itself is a very underrated house.
This wasn’t for me. Estée Lauder has been taking the PB line in a weird direction. Some combination of mass appeal with odd ingredient combinations. They are speed running mall-to-outlet fragrances!
Yeah, It seems like that. I don't consider this to be a comeback like some others either. They will probably go back to their usual pattern
Waxy!

You're late sir.
Fashionably...
@@ScentZatura New Tom Ford Amber Intrigue just dropped. I expect a review tomorrow.
Lol.. It's Harrods Exclusive... and doesn't look that interesting frankly
Another wonderful job Brodeep. I finally sampled this and I liked it and I get what you’re saying about CDG black. I’d have to see one for very cheap to consider buying though 🍻🫂
Thanks mate 🫂🍻 Yes, I think it's nothing particularly original. Never thought of getting it... only got it because it was offered by a mate way below retail
Great review! 👍
Thank You!
