Hello Sebastian, I know you are a patchouli lover so am i, can you please review Sole patchouli from Vertus. One of the nest patchouli fragrances i ha e wvwr smelled. Thank you for the great content as always.
Black Orchid has always been marketed to women. When I went to sample it at Nordstrom the Tom Ford rep wanted to make sure I was aware of that. A man can carry it off, but that’s not the intended audience. The parfum version is the first one Fragrantica claims is unisex. I like the EDP ok, but never sprung for a bottle. I’m kinda eager to try this one out.
When it first came out, they marketed it as a women's fragrance. TF's company took note that more men were buying it for themselves, so they started selling it in the men's fragrance section, also. Now, they say it is unisex.
I love the original black orchid and just bought the parfum. I could be wrong but I prefer the original..there's something in it that gives it a little more flare or maybe I need to try the gold bottle more frequently
@@xavierpettway9265 Now it's all sold out on the TF website and only the 50 ml is available on the US Sephora website...so I just ordered some before it's all gone!
Just want to say I adore your channel and your passion for fragrances. I particularly love your Tom Ford reviews, as I’m a HUGE fan of the line. Keep up the amazing work!
I'll very trying this tomorrow and I'm already hyped so it's great to get your thoughts on it before I do. I adore black orchid. Plum is my favourite note so this is one of my most anticipated releases in quote awhile 😍
Years ago, anything classified as a *parfum* had amazing sillage. It could be smelled in a room 10 minutes after the individual left. What kind of sillage does this have?
Orchid soleil smells nice on me too and it is also one of my faves. Sad that it is discontinued. I managed to buy a full 100ml back up. The store here in the Philippines where I buy still has two 50ml stocks and I am saving up so I can buy it too! Hopefully no one gets it before I do.
Nice Video! In my opinion "Black Orchid" is the last fragrance that needs a stronger version. The new version is stronger but sits closer on my skin somehow. Im with you with the bottle. I adore the black packaging.
Definitely getting this one. Plum is a nice note. I remember when you sprayed Silver Factory on. Man it was pumping off you and smelled damm good. Nice review Brother.
I have and love the black bottle one.i love Tom Ford perfumes.and i love your reviews among all perfume reviewers.so sincere and informative.i wish you would do tea scents/perfumes too please!!!🥰
I feel this purchase would be extraneous ...the orig is fine as it its......its not lacking in performance and Im sure that "others" wouldnt be able to tell the difference in terms of sillage/etc.....so the orig works perfectly..if its not 'broke" as they say...I expect TF to do originals for the price he asks..period
Great video. My friend is a big fan of Black Orchid and got both. She said the new one is kind of redundant😃 I haven’t got a bottle since I’ve never felt love towards the scent. Maybe I’ll change my mind one day.
This makes me excited. I've been a fan of TFBO and I recently enjoying it when layed with TF Orchid Soleil. I'm wondering how this one with smell with it. Hmmm. 🤔
Hi there how are you great video I totally agree with you about beast mode I wish a lot more people understood that not everbody wants to smell so strong that it overtakes everything else in the room there are other people in this world you know I have family members who are very allergic to strong smells and get headache and cannot stop sneezing and I feel really bad at a function where i cannot go near them so I always have to adjust what fragrance I wear therefore I do appreciate fragrances that everyone can wear and enjoy you don't have to overtake the world just enjoy your fragrance for your own pleasure and just enough for others too
jay jay completely agree 👍 I work in a sensible environment, in a hospital with direct patient contact. Beast fragrances are not an option in those king of environments. Also, I've met a lot of men who tend to prefer beast mode perfumes; don't know why but way more than women. My exchanges with some of them make me associate those perfumes with not the best personality (attention-seeking, quite egocentric). totally personal and biased but some popular beast mode perfumes are sadly ruined for me. Now, I've come to appreciate more subtle skin close fragrances that encourage intimacy. There are so many variables regarding what to wear: personal taste, place, people you will interact with, how you're feeling that particular day... Thankfully there are options for everyone!
I love them both! There’s something irreplaceable about the original but I find that the amped up plum makes it worthy for me. My only complaint is that the parfum doesn’t really project much (at least one me). They’re both amazing, I have both 😊
I've been waiting for this good new for a long time! I love Tom Ford and his fragrances...they express emotions and originality! then when I heard at the beginning of the video stronger than the black orchid I was shocked 🤣in my country of origin (Bulgaria) there is a very powerful alcoholic drink made from plums (rakia). I will be curious to see if I perceive a similar notes😉😀 can't wait to buy it and hope it will be here in Italy soon! as always your videos are exhaustive and interesting, thank you!
Great in-depth review. Sounds awful but that means your description is excellent because I can almost smell it through the screen and know that this is not for me.
thank you for this review very honest ! love it i have the original so excited for the new one and i love the gold bottle ...........new subscriber here !!
I did not fall in love in it, after sniffing it unfortunately. Black orchid is too 'mature' charateristic for my liking... But thanks for your review, insightful as always😀
I love TFBO EDP for its earthiness which gives it a more masculine vibe but I think if it was sweeter and stronger like this parfum version , it would feel much more feminine to me .... Not having smelt it yet, but it may be a pass for me for that reason :-I
You’re right about the bottle being black on EDP. On the PARFUM, they could’ve added a detailed design and kept it black. Always a pleasure, informative and honest review.
Hi, I just purchased the original and it's too masculine smelling for me. Too much sandalwood type notes. Is there a way to fix it by mixing something? I'm stuck with it :(
@@ThePerfumeGuy You don't have your glass of Sunsweet Prune Juice in the morning after a strong cup of coffee, followed by a trip to the loo and a quick reach for the plunger before a few fragrance shpritzes like the rest of us?😉
I surely hope that I like this one! I love PLUM I gave my son both Black Orchid and Velvet Orchid. They smell GREAT on him! I wore the Heck out of Hypnotic Poison back in the day!!! Love Plum Japonais...Bond No.9’s Andy Warhol is supposedly soooool good. But I’ll never know. Since it’s dc’d. Some of you guys try it and let us know... I hope, you all give the 👍🏾 up, because ain’t blind buying this one🤣
The parfum version is just a marketing move i guess. You pay more and get a little bit less( but a golden bottle lol). It is a very good perfume but the original Edp is superior and also cheaper!
So what do you think now that you’ve worn it several times? I like it, but….. I don’t want to wear a fragrance today and then tomorrow you know that I wore it yesterday because it’s sooooooo strong and lingers over 24 hrs. Yes if it was my signature fragrance but other than that nah. How was your experience???? @Roland hempel
Nice review Seb! :) Ive smelled it today for the first time, its very opulent & sweet... I enjoy it. About the plum-train :D Check out the new Guerlain L'Homme Idéal Extrême, its a really beautiful plum/tobacco scent 😍
The parfum is such an absolute train wreck at the opening. It smells so messy compared to the edp.... HOWEVER..... after some hours the parfum smells SO MUCH better then the edp

Hello Sebastian,
I know you are a patchouli lover so am i, can you please review Sole patchouli from Vertus. One of the nest patchouli fragrances i ha e wvwr smelled.
Thank you for the great content as always.
Nothing but the truth, and that’s why I love watching your reviews/videos.
There are also new TF fragrances on the way:

Excited!! :)

Oh wow! I had no idea this was released this year, this sounds amazing. Love the sound of a boozy black orchid
The 100 ml is sold out on the TF website, but the 50 ml is still available. Both sizes are for sale on the Sephora website.
Thx!
@@xavierpettway9265 Now it's all sold out on the TF website and only the 50 ml is available on the US Sephora website...so I just ordered some before it's all gone!
I just bought this perfume today 😊 the new version 2020 is so amazing 🥰 I love it .
Thanks, Sebastian! I had some Ulta points saved up so I used them on a 50ml of this. I think I will prefer it over the original based on your review.
Just want to say I adore your channel and your passion for fragrances. I particularly love your Tom Ford reviews, as I’m a HUGE fan of the line. Keep up the amazing work!
Thank you so much!! :)
I have the EDP which is strong enough on me.
I'll very trying this tomorrow and I'm already hyped so it's great to get your thoughts on it before I do.
I adore black orchid.
Plum is my favourite note so this is one of my most anticipated releases in quote awhile 😍
Hi, so what did you think? Is it worth getting the Perfume over the EDP in your opinion?
@@shahriachowdhury9552 Hi :)
Yes it is definitely worth getting it in my opinion, it’s he best version of the fragrance in my opinion 🔥
I really prefer EDT version I feel like they made it a little bit more masculine than older EDP.
Great video, very excited to try this new scent
Love original black orchid. I gotta try that new one. Tyvm, Sebastian.
Bitter Peach & Tubéreuse Nue are coming too from Tom Ford
Years ago, anything classified as a *parfum* had amazing sillage. It could be smelled in a room 10 minutes after the individual left. What kind of sillage does this have?
👀
yes yes..love black orchid. I am more excited about Bitter Peach.
Great review Seb love the original believe it or not I got the original at Ross last month for $55 50ml 😊
My fave from this line is orchid soleil. Sadly it’s discontinued 😭😭
Orchid soleil smells nice on me too and it is also one of my faves. Sad that it is discontinued. I managed to buy a full 100ml back up. The store here in the Philippines where I buy still has two 50ml stocks and I am saving up so I can buy it too! Hopefully no one gets it before I do.
Whilst on the subject of plums... do we know why they discontinued TF’s Plum Japanais? Such an intoxicating beautiful plum fragrance! 💞
Your explanation makes me decide what I want. Thank you!!!
😀
I remember I smell the EDP and I like it, but didn't love it, I have to try this one. Thanks for the review Sebastian!
Nice Video! In my opinion "Black Orchid" is the last fragrance that needs a stronger version. The new version is stronger but sits closer on my skin somehow. Im with you with the bottle. I adore the black packaging.
I am so excited about the parfum edition. Thanks for reviewing it!
I had to rewatch this after sampling today. Anyone else getting Carlisle vibes? Immediately thought of that when i put my nose in it.
I love Black Orchid, but I stopped wearing it, because it started to become too common.
Common? Well not everyone wear black orchid, especially it is very unique:) have to be confident for man to wear this :)
Definitely getting this one. Plum is a nice note. I remember when you sprayed Silver Factory on. Man it was pumping off you and smelled damm good. Nice review Brother.
Thank you for the review? Could this release be a reason why Plum Japonais was discontinued? What is your view?
Love black orchid!! I was not aware of the new version. I want one so badly😍
I love Black Orchid EDP and the plum note in Plum Japonais, so I'll definitely check this out
Great video, thank you!
I just found your channel. I am really enjoying your videos. I totally agree with you...it is delicious.
I have and love the black bottle one.i love Tom Ford perfumes.and i love your reviews among all perfume reviewers.so sincere and informative.i wish you would do tea scents/perfumes too please!!!🥰
Working on that def will air soon so please stay tuned!! 😄
@@ThePerfumeGuy thank you sooo much!am so thrilled!!will be looking forward to it!😊

This was extremely helpful, thank you.
I’m really enjoying the new Parfum version! Great review! I love the plum note in the new one I think the scent is smoother and more vanilla also.
Hi Sebastian,
Question about this fragrance… would you find this to be a nice scent during a hot humid summer for a man on the east coast?
There are no rules I would wear it but only you can decide if you can tolerate it in the heat. 😀
This makes me excited. I've been a fan of TFBO and I recently enjoying it when layed with TF Orchid Soleil. I'm wondering how this one with smell with it. Hmmm. 🤔
Sweet and savoury - You were talking about Womanity, Mugler.
Well not fishy savory, more like earthy savory!! ;)
Great review and I enjoyed it and I'm gonna try it have a blessed day
I bought my EDP 100ml tester for around 70€
I got a smokey wiff in the opening, as it dried down to me smell like the original

After a while it reminds me of 31 Rue Cambon
I love them both! There’s something irreplaceable about the original but I find that the amped up plum makes it worthy for me. My only complaint is that the parfum doesn’t really project much (at least one me). They’re both amazing, I have both 😊
Hello! What are your thoughts on Velvet Orchid?
I want this so baaaaaaaaad!
Which black orchid is more earthy?
Thanks sebastian for your honest
For me it's not smell wow
Greetings from Egypt
Does anyone know what “black orchid” are they using? Like the species of the orchid.
The parfum just doesn’t have vanilla and chocolate. It also smoother
I've been waiting for this good new for a long time! I love Tom Ford and his fragrances...they express emotions and originality! then when I heard at the beginning of the video stronger than the black orchid I was shocked 🤣in my country of origin (Bulgaria) there is a very powerful alcoholic drink made from plums (rakia).

I am one of those people who is sad that they discontinued the orchid soleil. It smells nice in humid tropical climate.
Thank you, nice review!!
I loved plums ever since Dior poison.
What about Velvet Orchid?
Not much experience with it.
I have this I like it but it doesn't last long is it so for all that have this fragrance?
Man I can’t wait to pick this up
I love TFBO EDP for its earthiness which gives it a more masculine vibe but I think if it was sweeter and stronger like this parfum version , it would feel much more feminine to me .... Not having smelt it yet, but it may be a pass for me for that reason :-I

I gotta get my hands on this 👍😎👍
Hi, I just purchased the original and it's too masculine smelling for me. Too much sandalwood type notes. Is there a way to fix it by mixing something? I'm stuck with it :(
Add a floral note? Something like orchid, magnolia could work! Creamy florals! :)
Thanks I'll have no try that. Everybody says I smell like a man :'(
Great review per usual! I didn't have the original so I decided on the new one.
Do you believe its a good stuff for men?.
Great review my g
Would the dried plum be considered a prune note?
Prune plum yes!
i just did my first video, a fragrance collection and let me tell you, i will do a part two just for this one lol!
Was curious to see your collection, did you delete the video?
3-year-old video and the price went from $195 to $275. Crazy!
I kinda hate it when plums get pruney
Oh man it's so healthy for our digestive system though? LOL! ;)
@@ThePerfumeGuy You don't have your glass of Sunsweet Prune Juice in the morning after a strong cup of coffee, followed by a trip to the loo and a quick reach for the plunger before a few fragrance shpritzes like the rest of us?😉
Great review
I surely hope that I like this one! I love PLUM
I gave my son both Black Orchid and Velvet Orchid.
They smell GREAT on him!
I wore the Heck out of Hypnotic Poison back in the day!!!
Love Plum Japonais...Bond No.9’s Andy Warhol is supposedly soooool good.
But I’ll never know. Since it’s dc’d.

Very curious about this one! Great video as always 🙂
I love the parfum❤️❤️❤️. Sebastian, have you tried the EDT version?
Plz review the moon
*Parfum or Edp?*
ordered it
Awesome! Keep me posted! :)

Fragrancebuy.ca already got their hands on this 😂 already saw it on the website lastnight.
yep
i want that 2
So the plums were rehydrated.
I guess you can say that! Ha! ;)
Which one is more feminine, I’m confused
Go with the original.
@@ThePerfumeGuy thank you ❤️
More masculine for sure
Very helpful
I am waiting for the review of the new fragrance،j p le male le parfum 2020
the original is already tooo potent to me, on my skin it lasts easily 12 hours +. is that really necessary to have a parfum version?
lol
Nice review Seb! :) Ive smelled it today for the first time, its very opulent & sweet... I enjoy it. About the plum-train :D Check out the new Guerlain L'Homme Idéal Extrême, its a really beautiful plum/tobacco scent 😍
Thanks 🙏
I’m disappointed there’s no chocolate in it.
I'm not paying full retail for Tom Ford or Roja.
Yep.. $195 for 100ML. Almost laughed... I can buy a real niche fragrance for $200.
The parfum is such an absolute train wreck at the opening. It smells so messy compared to the edp.... HOWEVER..... after some hours the parfum smells SO MUCH better then the edp
That bottle design, just no
Not a fan of the original......not at all !
Thanks 🙏
