I bought Black Orchid back in 15/12/2010 on my way to the USA for the first time to start my college life.. it was a Christmas time and I bought it from the airplane. It was a blind buy because they didn’t have a tester and I wanted to buy something I link this trip to. So now this perfume will forever reminds me of Washington DC winter time and snow.. love it
You should try Nishane Amouage Initio Serge lutens All of which are more sophisticated and special. Tom Ford is the best “designer” fragrance house, it has nothing on the “Niche” brands

Except he is a pompous prick just like every other fashionista, and doesn't really know anything about much let alone perfume. It's a designer brand for a reason.
@@mattl7424 Michael absolutely wore Tom Ford Black Orchid as well as White Patchouli. Both bottles along with an unopened box of Tom Ford for Men Extreme were photographed in his bathroom.
Amazing salesmanship. Orchids don't have a scent, red: I am wrong, orchids have scent, thx for the correction. Givaudan made a fantasy accord.The bottle has the same shape as Tom Ford For Men and Grey Vetiver. But, I love Black Orchid EDP. It's an amazing sensual dark lush scent.The black currant and chocolat are divine.
Headspace is such a powerful technique. (It’s also been used for squid by zoologist more recently). This gentleman is ahead of his time (and so elegant!) What an interesting post, thank you!
Beautiful. I used to work at a supermarket and had a friend that was into the “finer” things in life. He’d rock his Hermes belts, Balanciaga’s and crazy perfumes to work. I kept smelling this one perfume he’d wear and I asked him, what is that?! Black Orchid, by Tom Ford. There would be days where I’d clock into work, and catch a whiff of it in the air, I’d say to my self, Franklin is probably working today. No kidding, I walk into the stockroom and there he is, wearing Black Orchid. Eventually bought myself a bottle in 2015, still have it. Fell in love with all of TF’s creations. Tried other houses as well but something about TF, his vision, his taste, make TF almost irresistibly sexy, compared to any other fragrance house on the market. With that being said, I’m off to eBay to browse some Neroli Portofini and Ebene Fume. 🌊🌌
Thanks for posting all of these! Would love if you could find the full 92Y interview he did with Fern Mallis or the new Sirius James Corden. Keep up the great work!
Whilst I cant say I like nor love Black Orchid, I absolutely will and have to give it the respect deserves. It smells foul on my skin and is too overpowering. I have smelled it on others and it has smelled divine, it just doesn’t work with my body chemistry. Now, the house of Tom Ford is a house I love & respect - the house that birthed one of my favourite perfumes: Vanille Fatale. Now that is a work of art. Black Orchid is much Like Thierry Mugler’s Angel - polarising. You’re going to love it or hate it with no in-between. Alas, it’s a no for me, however I appreciate the craftsmanship that’s gone into making this product.
I wish I could meet this legend. Can you hire me as your personal helper or something ? I just wanna be in the same room when you’re creating a masterpiece 🔥🔥🔥
FASHION KING, You are such a HANDSOME man. You are truly a STUNNER!!! You stole the show at the MET GALA earlier this month.(Smile).👋 You were UNDENIABLY THE BEST DRESS MAN at the event. All the best to you on upcoming films. I am not an actress but I would be THRILLED to play your Black female loyal friend in one of your films who has a crush on you.(LAUGH HARD). I am just kidding! (LAUGH HARDER). Happy Father's Day In Advance and God's Richest and Best Blessings to you and your BEAUTIFUL son.😘.(Smile).
Right after a totally controlled, well scheduled life I'm wondering about how it feels like becoming completely free to prearrange a hangout with somebody that smells like a light green Versace bottle combined with green Playboy odour that mixed up with white tea... :) Interesting combinations can win the case. #copewiththat
Tom Ford was an amazing director for fragrances since m7 but now they are just expensive commercial overpriced designer scents....sooooo sad after old masterpieces as Tobacco Vanille, F Fabulus, Amber Absolute and so many others
jk tom ford perfumes are revolutionary and the link between designer perfumes and niche. And all the whales that buy the expensive fragrances help afford free samples at every perfume store. Black orchid is too sweet though
Headache inducing fragrance. Cant stand it even with a single spray. Beautiful bottle though. But I forgive him cause this house gave us Oud Wood. A masterpiece.
You couldn’t have picked more different scents to compare. Not to mention that Black Orchid came 4 years before BdC, so how can it kill a scent that didn’t exist when BO was released?
Really really niche, and really really stinky. Smells like an oxidized old lady frag but I generally don't like most TF frags. They smell like money the same way Warren Buffett smells like money
Like they said, it’s synthesized. Also regarding the formula, you likely saw a formula that was recreated from running the fragrance under GC to analyze the composition. This stuff is good enough, but it never really shows the original formula, particularly with complex fragrances like Black Orchid.

Black Orchid is iconic and back in 2007, when I found this fragrance, I fell mercilessly in love with Tom Ford’s creativity. Forever Tom Ford 🖤🤍
Not now. His scents are so waters down with the company he sold too
After exploring so many different houses for so many years I keep coming back to TF frags. They just exude sophistication and sensuality
You should try
Nishane
Amouage
Initio

He's exceptionally well media trained, charismatic.

God bless you Tom
It's a timeless masterpiece, along with Grey Vetiver
Grey Vetiver is the quintessential..
Michael jackson wore Tom Ford Black Orchid. 👌🏼
Allegedly

@@alexmarkulla3930 I’m sure but , that’s not all he wore.
@@mattl7424 Who said that's all he wore? I was just letting you know that he actually wore Tom Ford, it was not alleged.
What a turn off
An iconic fragrance. The Parfum (gold bottle) is also a great addition to the line.

Yeah, all the praise should go to the actual perfumers who did the work.
Uh...... many orchid species have strong scents.
There are a lot of orchids with scents
@@happygolucky1184right 😂
@@happygolucky1184 thank you, I didn't know that.
I bought one of the original EdP of Black Orchid back when it came out. It was NUCLEAR. Lasted all day and then, all next day.

Thank you for Tobacco Vanille, Noir Extreme and ofcourse Black Orchid. ❤
Bring back Moss Breches, and Patchouli Absolu please!?
He is handsome hunk❤
We want Tobacco Oud & Tobacco Oud Intense back!!! We NEED them!!!
You can still buy Tobacco Oud, I recently bought it but its just really hard to find only in 50ML. But we do need Intense back.

And just like Angel is got reformulated to death.
Obsessed with this scent!!! Omg it’s sexy!!! 🔥

It’s gone up in price since it launched. Those sacred orchids seem to have caught inflation.
No denying this man is an icon in fashion and fragrance. It's interesting to hear his thoughts.
My fav parfum is noir extrême
@@madimc but I believe noir extrême is the only perfume with kulfi note in it
Bring Back Envy vor Men 🙌🙌. The best Mens fragrance ever
Yes ENVY is the best!
In the beginning it was a women fragrance and then it became a unisex and I love it i have 150 ml
Love and respect from Dhaka, Bangladesh.

Yes..!!!
I have that one, love it.

How do you get vanilla tears? I've smelled vanilla but never it's tears. Is it salty?
Thanks
My second TF fragrance after buying NE.
Keanu says a lot of great things here.
I wish I could meet this legend. Can you hire me as your personal helper or something ? I just wanna be in the same room when you’re creating a masterpiece 🔥🔥🔥
The only one TF that I can wear and like
If this gets 500 likes I’ll buy Tom ford noir or one of his colonge that last a long time and can be used in the summer and winter
Aphex twin on violin
On my skin it smells like Dr Pepper. Very intriguing and different scent.
Bring back tobacco oud INTENSE please
I hope Tom takes his advice and stops stripping down great fragrances…whilst upping the price.
It’s all in the hands of Esteé Lauder. I wouldn’t expect much. Although the post-TF release Black Lacquer was a pleasant surprise.

love tom ford, but black orchid is my least favorite fragrance of all time.
He killed the Bleu de Chanel with the Black Orchid.
He has been killing every perfume designer for the past 10 years. Tom Ford fragrances are hardly ever discounted.
No he didn't.
The what? ?? Bleu de Chanel is on a different side than black orchid. Bdc is an a everyday thing, black orchid is for special occasions
Bdc anytime, anyday. Why would I want to smell like a flower that does not have a smell. Black orchid is feminine and headache inducing.
You couldn’t have picked more different scents to compare. Not to mention that Black Orchid came 4 years before BdC, so how can it kill a scent that didn’t exist when BO was released?
All show , major marketing strategy , but over rated over priced , there are many superior niche fragrances, I don’t touch designers like him
Well it’s not him personally that destroyed the brand 🤷♂️
Honestly, black orchid is above many niche fragrances I’ve smelled, its extremely well constructed, one of my favourites ever
Really really niche, and really really stinky. Smells like an oxidized old lady frag but I generally don't like most TF frags. They smell like money the same way Warren Buffett smells like money
One of the nastiest stinkers in perfumery.
I agree. It's horrible!!
It was groundbreaking after it was released in 2007. Everyone had it in their collection from 2008-2012. It was HUGE
Yeah it stinks GOOD.
Your attitude is stinks!
Your attitude is stinks!
Fn weird video and guy
I’ve seen the formula. There is ZERO orchid oil in Black Orchid. What a liar lol 😂 great fragrance but what a load of marketing bs
He literally said they synthesize the scent 1:00 Imagine can't even listen for one minute
You didnt have to but u chose to make urself sound stupid as fk
