What's your favorite Tom Ford fragrance? All fragrances are linked in the text description! If you like this video give it a thumbs up 👍 Thanks for watching! ❤
It sounds like your campaigning against Ombre Leather haha. Smelling it on a paper tester is not the true way to experience it. It's a beautiful fragrance
Honestly man it's expected... I love Ombre Leather but 99% of people don't want to smell leather in the other person's neck. It's definitely an acquired taste (which for us is super interesting) but then again for the """common""" people on the streets it smells super strange
@@andreportugal-fu4dhPerfectly said 🎯. Another thing is most masculine and animalistic fragrances are mostly appreciated by other men. Women just know something smells nice. A dude who takes a girl on a date with a cheap cologne could be smelling like a million bucks to her.
I own Ombre Leather and have worn it periodically through the years. No woman I’ve ever dated has liked it. The hard truth is that woman generally prefer blue colognes and don’t give a shit about niche/challenging colognes. Out of my large collection, Versace Dylan blue and BDC are hits.
I like the parfum version it’s more wearable….PDM godlphin is better and even more wearable. If u want a very similar feel on the cheap go with the OG John Varvatos and Mercedes benz le parfum.
"Black Orchid" is probably my favorite from Tom Ford. It was also one of Michael Jackson's favorite fragrances-his favorite prior to his death in 2009; this was when he wore it most often, and it became his signature scent during this period of his life.
I just bought Ombre Leather and I really like it. One thing I will note is that it smells totally different sprayed on a test strip versus spraying on the skin. It has much more of the leather smell on a test strip and doesn't reveal much more, but on the skin all the other wonderful notes come out!
@@dapluq5961 I have until the end of January 2023 to return it, no questions asked as I bought it from a huge well known retailer. Guess what asshole? I will be keeping it! lol.
Actually I also bought one a week ago and I gotta say the same. Tom Ford isn’t paying me to defend their fragrance so I gotta say it’s a 10/10 for me lol. The moment all of my friends smelled it they wanted to know what fragrance I’m wearing… I’ll probably buy another bottle once this one is finished Probably not suited for summer weather though
Ombre Leather reactions really surprised me bc I'm a girl and the first time I smelt it a few years ago I was FLOORED. Back then It was my first time experiencing leather in a fragrance, i was like holy shit what in the luxury and badass is this...I got it straight away and was crazy about it, wore it like after showers and to bed for a while too hahaha, it was my signature scent for the next 2 years until i expanded my horizons a bit
I've only smelt ombre Leather and I loved it, it lasted 24hrs and lasted through a shower on my skin so the others must be good also. I would buy it because I liked it not bothered about compliments haha
Ombré leather is a beautiful fragrance, but I can see why some don’t like it. It hits heavy on the leather sprayed on a card. Once it opens up the fruit tones start to take over and blend. Its a sweet leather scent. Personally it gets many compliments…..but depends on the person.
Just bought my 5th bottle of Noir Extreme today. It’s absolutely my favorite and I cannot go anywhere without it!! I do get compliments from both men and women. I personally think men should I least give this one a shot
Man I love Tom Ford fragrances, it's honestly my favorite brand, noone does perfumes in such a unique way. Also regarding Ombre Leather, I haven't met 1 girl yet that doesn't like the smell and even the ones that don't "love" it, they appreciate it as it is so interesting. But yeah, for people that think if fragrances as something very light and fresh with not too many facets, like a deodorant or shower gel smell...Tom Ford is not for them
Not surprised to be honest, noir extreme is a great compliment getter, it is my favorite tom ford alongside tobacco vanille which is also a crazy compliment getter. Keep up the good work curly, great content as usual! Would love to test the new parfum version, would be great to see a review of it as well
Favorite TF fragrance is easily Tobacco Vanille; absolutely love this one and will always be in my collection. If I'm being brutally honest though, classic TF fragrances are not appealing to the majority of women...the leather ones are particularly considered crappy to them. Fragrances, especially these, should be worn just for your enjoyment. Let your confidence be the attraction. Before someone brings it up, I never said they can't get compliments. Obviously, some women do enjoy these. Just keep it in mind, these are not built for mass-appeal as the #1 priority.
The problem is with public tester strips like this, is that people are generally subconsciously thinking about something that smells delicious, so the masses will generally pick the gourmand-leaning fragrance. Any high-quality fragrance will be sexy smelling on you, what matters is a sexy body, great hair, great teeth, clean skin. Women DO like the note of Leather on a man, not so much on a woman. Leather = money, and money is sexy. (sports car = fun, money for travel, real estate, dining, fun experiences, security, status). So yes, the note of Leather is extremely attractive on a man to a woman's nose. For the same reason women also love the note of Tobacco.
@@CJ2K the smell gives u a cowboy, leather boots, leather clothes, gentleman-ly vibes. A very specific look. And if u don't have it I think the average person wouldn't like it. I think the parfum has a fruity vibe added so that might be better purchase/somewhat more versatile.
I recently started getting into TF. I bought Noir Extreme Parfum (I felt the EDP was a lot sweeter but more feminine). I received samples of Black Orchid, Ombre Leather & Oud Wood. I thought BO was too feminine. My Wife absolutely loved it as a fragrance she would wear (valentine's day present sorted lol). First impressions of Ombre Leather for both of us was that it was terrible. Smells like a diesel mechanic sitting on a Leather couch lol. But after 30mins....it transformed on my skin & was fabulous! Even my wife complimented it not knowing it was thr one she hated earlier. I'll definitely get a bottle in the near future. Oud Wood....I appreciate the intricacies of the smell but it reminded me of an old Middle Eastern smell, which I myself wouldn't wear. I'd like to try Tobacco Vanille as well. TF is not a standard line of fragrances & it seems polarising. That's probably why I'm infatuated with the line. Love your channel ❤️
Wow, I'm surprised by the results. Ombre Leather is my signature fragrance and I get compliments, but I know it's an acquired taste and has to be worn correctly and carefully since it's so intense.
It’s also on paper which means jack shit. I’m a dom and colognes on my skin take a whole new life on me. Some like aqua di giro turn rancid on me. But scents like black orchid, Aventus and pdm Layton consume girls on me while they don’t do crap on paper. Smelling scents on paper is like trying to smell colors. Pointless.
Yeah and another thing that unfortunately some people miss, it’s suppose to be a semi subtle scent, not a room blaster. Less is more. I heard someone say a comment about another cologne which I loved so I will copy it and apply to ombré leather (and Tuscan leather), it’s better to be discovered, rather than announced.
Fragance is so subjective. Black Orchid smells like a grandma indeed, but it also smells like flowers with crushed ants/insects on the opening to me. It’s one of the most challenging scents I’ve tested. On the other hand, Ombre Leather it’s fantastic to me, and performance is beast. Major leather smell all day😅
Really glad I watched this, makes me confident to just stick with the cheaper designer blue fragrances. Women seem to have a much more pleasant reaction to those then the ones in this video.
I used to work behind the counter in fragrance in the late 80's and 90's. Michaela, you are so much fun and a lot like the cool fun people I used to work with but you are fun SUPERCHARGED! Love your awesome personality!
Tuscan leather is my favourite tom ford, followed by ombre leather and ombre leather parfum. However I find myself wearing oud wood a lot more since it’s much more wearable than the others.
To have someone who loves the smell of Oud Wood or Ombré leather, you need to appreciate that nature scent. I personally enjoy both of em! Btw hi gorgeous👋🏽
Love ombré leather, tobacco vanille and Tuscan leather, but I can’t for the life of me handle Oud wood. Maybe I can’t handle Oud scents but for me,to my nose, it smells rancid. But that’s the crazy thing about scents, it’s so subjective.
Ombre Leather is one of the most complicated fragrance i have in my collection. I will always go for it. One of my favourite fragrances. I will keep it for life ❣️.
I’m a guy (who likes guys 😂) and Ombré Leather (original and parfum) are my favorite fragrances on both myself and on my husband. The slight floral with that sexy leather (more spicy on the original) drives me crazy!!
It’s always different from skin to skin and when I wear Ombré Leather is like a magic magnet. Every one special girls in job or outside asking me and saying it smells sooooo good.
Tobacco Oud is easily my favourite Tom Ford. Oud Wood is fantastic too, but Versace Oud Noir is virtually the same. Also quite like Black Orchid, but Ard Al Zafaran Oud 24 Hours is a great cheap clone & Lattafa Velvet Oud is a much more wearable & appealing, fruitier version of Ombre Leather. Never liked Noir Extreme, I agree with the women here who said it's too feminine for a man.
Tom fords usually better in the air and more for dressy/formal wear but the def are not mass appealing. My favs: Ebene Fume Costa Azzura Fkin Fabulous/Ombre Leather Parfum Noir Extreme Oud Wood
I really like all 4.. Oud Wood, Noir Extreme, Ombre Leather (Tuscan Leather might smell slightly better with the raspberry notes that are added), and Black Orchid would be my order of the 4 competing, but once again they're all great.. Oud Wood is probably my favorite TF fragrance overall, I just simply love the way it smells.. I really like Tobacco Vanille but it's not versatile and I'd only wear it in October, November or December.. also Beau de Jour and Ébène Fumé are awesome as well..
Hello curly! I have all 4 and it's not even close Noir Extreme is the best and it got me the most compliments though I just got Ombre Leather I'm saving it for late fall early winter but I think it's a great fragrance! We are all not the same. You are such a beautiful hardworking and dedicated woman my flower! I love all your videos please keep it up!!! 🌹❤🌹❤🌹❤🌹❤🌹❤🌹❤🌹
ombre leather is ridiculously good on skin vs on strip... i bought the parfum seriously it'll stay on even after a shower .. I layer it sometimes with le male parfum but on its own its very versatile.
It's so weird not to have people smell the opening and later the dry down. It's like reading the first few pages of a book and making a judgment about the whole book
Black Orchid is my current favorite, Its long lasting. Also Dacre Montgomery (Billy from Stranger Things ) is his personal favorite to wear. I also have Ombre Leather and I love it, goes great with my Kay Michaels Boda Skins leather jacket
Curly: “What does it smell like?” Woman: “Cologne” Give that woman a round of applause 🤦🏻♂️ So funny, we guys spend £££ on fragrances, but truth be told, women will be happy if you always smell like CDNIM
I love tf noir femme. It's very well blended and it has high projection and longevity. I heard noir extreme and noir femme similar but I didn't like noir extreme.
I expected the results and I was right. I don't think any woman would like Ombre leather. I also think that F* fabulous could've had a good chance to compete. Tom Ford is unique, but for the high price you're paying, combined with a 50/50 chance or even less of people liking your smell and a limited scenario of when you can use many of his fragrances, I believe it's a risky investment.
i have to admit that when I was younger I thought Black Orchid literally stank, nowadays I find the fragrance extremely sexy on an elegant woman, in the autumn-winter season it's all over - insaneee
one month ago i tested ombre leather and i loved it at first sight...i bought 50 ml...and 2 days ago i bought 100 ml ombre leather now i have 150 ml and i don't give a sh....if women or friends don't like it😁 I LOVE OMBRE LEATHER PERFUME
My fav Tom Ford frags! But missing 1 masterpiece - Grey Vetiver 😉 Didn't expect this video - nice surprise, thx. Would love your comparison of Noir Extreme and new Noir Extreme Parfum.
im surprised by the responses. oud wood smells like BO to me. ive tried it multiple times, but its just not my style. Ombre Leather, however.......amazing. like a nice leather jacket with sweetness added in. reminds me of my childhood. my family was obsessed with leather in the 80s lol biker jackets, leather skirts, leather pants....that scent hit my nose often and it was always mixed with a hint of whatever cologne/perfume they were wearing. so its the nostalgia for me, when it comes to ombre leather.
Yeah it does to my nose. That’s what’s so fascinating about human population, so much variance in experience and taste. When I smelled it (on tester strip not on skin, maybe that’s the issue), I almost gagged, maybe Oud is not for me. But ombré leather is really good, but again that’s just my opinion.
Side note: Alexandria Fragrances has an inspiration of Tom Ford oud wood. It’s called Agar Intense and is longevity is better, and the price is agreeable. Personally I prefer Agar intense over the real thing.
The discontinued Noir Pour Femme is a very similar scent and has better longevity, however its a skin scent so overspray. I got a compliment from a lady saying I smell like "sexy baby powder" on St. Patrick's Day
I was disappointed by Oud Wood's response. While I love Noir Extreme, but Oud Wood is miles ahead. I would say along with Dior Eau Sauvage Parfum, Oud Wood is my favorite smell of all. P.S. Can't wait to find and try a sample of Thameen Carved Oud.
Remember men, if youre watching this video to wear the cologne that the women prefer, take it with a grain of salt. You never ask a fish how to fish, you ask a fisherman. I personally believe you should find a cologne that you like and wear it with confidence because it will make everyone around you like you and the smell more if youre confident. Stay strong boys, god bless.
Curly - great video. I own TF Noir Extreme, TF Black Orchid EDT (not the EDP), TF Oud Wood and no, definitely do not own TF Ombre Leather (I smelled it and knew it would not be an appealing scent). I prefer TF Noir Extreme as well. What I like the most about your 'street' review videos, is that you do a great job getting women's opinions on scents, and I sense that when you do you own videos back at your place, you really represent what women would really like to smell on a guy.
Surprised by reactions on Ombre Leather. Tom Ford is my favourite label. Back then I really loved Patchouli absolu. Such a shame it's discontinue. Ombre Leather is an unusual scent that captivated my senses immediately. Love it
You have to get your nose on the Noir extreme parfum. For me I'm very impressed. Takes you on a great journey with that leather. Don't judge on initial spray. Can't wait for the cooler months so I can wear it...might have to sissy spray though, as great longevity.
im wearing black orchid right now. It has a nice softness to it, but it does have an antiquated smell. I rather enjoy it for nostalgic reasons but would not choose it for a public outing. Of the Tom Ford I have tried, Ombre Leather has gotten the heads turning.
I bought a bottle of Polo Oud wood Supreme years ago and still have it and today I bought a bottle of Tom Fords Oud Wood and they smell identical at a ¼ of the price.
If you want a good longevity smelling like tom ford noir extreame, get the Odyssey homme from Armaf the black one. It is just exquisit and 5 times cheaper
These results puzzle me...the Dillard's in the mall was doing a Tom Ford promotion and doing the same type of testing with random women and guys stuck around for a while to get different opionions. We observed hands down women picking Ombre Leather over the ither TF fragrances. Noir Extreme came in a distant 2nd but one after the other picked OL....not sure if this video was edited to show "her" preference of the 4 but we just saw group after group in the mall pick Ombre Leather.
I used to work Tom Ford promos in Saks from 2014 to 2019 and did the Noir Extreme launch in 2015 and Ombré Leather launch in 2018. The most popular scents with women shopping for men’s fragrances collectively over the years were Noir Extreme, Grey Vetiver, and Tobacco Vanille. These were based on vendor sales (heavily sample driven) in our region which was southwest (I’m based out of Texas). Ombré leather did get a lot of reactions but was either too intense or off putting, especially from opening spray on tester strips. It ranked usually in the bottom half of our top 10 in sales, which still wasn’t bad out of the number of SKUs we had. Most purchases for Ombré Leather that we observed were men.
I wish you’d put Acqua di Gio or Versace pour Homme in every “Women React” video. 4 Tom Fords or 4 Parfums de Marly and 1 popular aquatic would always win
Hi there Curly. Your advice of adding ambroxan for projection, will that work for any frag, is it a well known trick? Does it have side effects, as in does it change the scent profile? Thanks for the vids :)
Ombre leather is the best Tom Ford fragrance, I did not like on paper, but sprayed on my nevertheless, when I got home I couldn’t get enough of it, went and bought it. It needs to dry on a masculine man not on paper
Really great video. Beau De Jour is my favorite Tom Ford. Actually has great performance too. Battle suggestion would be Parfums De Marley. Everyone’s favorite niche house. Love to Layton, Sedley, Percival and maybe Herod battle it out. Couple cold weather vs. freshies.

Ombre Leather was the first leather scent I tested and I fell in love immediately. Too bad that such fragrances offer few opportunities to wear it.
I think ombre leather is fantastic also, but on a tester strip it doesnt do it justice. On skin in the dry down it's amazing.

Oh wauw I didn't know that😃 MJ has good taste in colognes👌😎

And it suited him very well I actually bought after knowing MJ wore it

It's true, black orchid was MJ's number one fragrance, from what I know he really liked it and wore it heavily and a lot.

I wear Tom Ford Ombré Leather everyday, cant go wrong with the EDP or Parfum. Absolutely obsessed. Can’t get enough.

Very difficult to judge a leather frag out of a tester strip. I find they are the most different b/w strips and skin.
Black Orchid is a masterpiece imo. One of my all time favorites. You definitely need the confidence to pull it off tho.
I got a little sampler and it’s amazing especially as the day goes by I’m definitely buying the 5.10oz bottle
Tuscan leather is my favourite tom ford, followed by ombre leather and ombre leather parfum. However I find myself wearing oud wood a lot more since it’s much more wearable than the others.

Tom fords usually better in the air and more for dressy/formal wear but the def are not mass appealing. My favs:
Ebene Fume
Costa Azzura
Fkin Fabulous/Ombre Leather Parfum
Noir Extreme
Oud Wood
I really like all 4.. Oud Wood, Noir Extreme, Ombre Leather (Tuscan Leather might smell slightly better with the raspberry notes that are added), and Black Orchid would be my order of the 4 competing, but once again they're all great.. Oud Wood is probably my favorite TF fragrance overall, I just simply love the way it smells.. I really like Tobacco Vanille but it's not versatile and I'd only wear it in October, November or December.. also Beau de Jour and Ébène Fumé are awesome as well..
Ombre Leather Parfum, has some rasberry in it Is believe. Which is why i like it most
I love the Oud Wood! Fell in love with it after testing all the Tom Fords
I'm surprised that Black Orchid did that well. Great video as always. Thank you.
Such a creative way to review perfumes. I loved watching this. Please keep up the good work.
Hello curly! I have all 4 and it's not even close Noir Extreme is the best and it got me the most compliments though I just got Ombre Leather I'm saving it for late fall early winter but I think it's a great fragrance! We are all not the same. You are such a beautiful hardworking and dedicated woman my flower! I love all your videos please keep it up!!!

Thank you Daniel! 🤗❤️
Hvala ti na prevodu i opisima specifičnih mirisa❤
Clever experiment. I was intrigued by the results. I enjoy all these fragrances for different occasions.
ombre leather is ridiculously good on skin vs on strip... i bought the parfum seriously it'll stay on even after a shower .. I layer it sometimes with le male parfum but on its own its very versatile.
It's so weird not to have people smell the opening and later the dry down. It's like reading the first few pages of a book and making a judgment about the whole book
Im obsessed with ombre leather.
I love Noir Extreme. ( thank God so does my wife ) I smelled all of Tom fords colognes to me this is is the best one. Second is black orchid.
I think the same💯
To be honest I can’t see paying Tom Ford prices but Dossier makes a version of Tobacco Vanille that I love.
Black Orchid is my current favorite, Its long lasting. Also Dacre Montgomery (Billy from Stranger Things ) is his personal favorite to wear. I also have Ombre Leather and I love it, goes great with my Kay Michaels Boda Skins leather jacket
Ombre Leather has gathered many compliments from women. The reaction is different on a large broad shouldered man vs a test strip.
1) Myrhh Mystere/ Ebene Fume/Noir Xtreme EDP. 2) Mandarino di Amalfi Aqua. 3) Tobacco Vanille. 4) Neroli Portofino 🤘
It will be interesting to smell Noir Extreme Parfum. 😎 I really like Ombré leather.
Curly: “What does it smell like?”
Woman: “Cologne”
Give that woman a round of applause 🤦🏻♂️
So funny, we guys spend £££ on fragrances, but truth be told, women will be happy if you always smell like CDNIM
Hahahahahahhaha
Cdnm!! Like toilet cleaner you mean ? 😁
@@manishasene3076 ladies love toilet cleaner, what can I say? 🤷🏻♂️
Yes sir , ya spot on! But the older ladies seemed more appreciative that we do take the trouble to dress up in scents.
My Man has spoken the truth. 😌
I layered Ombre Leather with Black Orchid, my GF and myself loved it but TF is too expensive for my tasted to wear it somewhat regulary.
I love tf noir femme. It's very well blended and it has high projection and longevity. I heard noir extreme and noir femme similar but I didn't like noir extreme.
I expected the results and I was right. I don't think any woman would like Ombre leather. I also think that F* fabulous could've had a good chance to compete. Tom Ford is unique, but for the high price you're paying, combined with a 50/50 chance or even less of people liking your smell and a limited scenario of when you can use many of his fragrances, I believe it's a risky investment.
i have to admit that when I was younger I thought Black Orchid literally stank, nowadays I find the fragrance extremely sexy on an elegant woman, in the autumn-winter season it's all over - insaneee
First time I tried I found it very stinky( was younger then too)😂 and I haven’t tried it again I hope next time I do I get a change of mind
one month ago i tested ombre leather and i loved it at first sight...i bought 50 ml...and 2 days ago i bought 100 ml ombre leather now i have 150 ml and i don't give a sh....if women or friends don't like it😁 I LOVE OMBRE LEATHER PERFUME
My fav Tom Ford frags! But missing 1 masterpiece - Grey Vetiver 😉 Didn't expect this video - nice surprise, thx.
Would love your comparison of Noir Extreme and new Noir Extreme Parfum.
Tom Ford makes unique stuff for sure but they are definitely polarizing.
im surprised by the responses. oud wood smells like BO to me. ive tried it multiple times, but its just not my style. Ombre Leather, however.......amazing. like a nice leather jacket with sweetness added in. reminds me of my childhood. my family was obsessed with leather in the 80s lol biker jackets, leather skirts, leather pants....that scent hit my nose often and it was always mixed with a hint of whatever cologne/perfume they were wearing. so its the nostalgia for me, when it comes to ombre leather.
Yeah it does to my nose. That’s what’s so fascinating about human population, so much variance in experience and taste. When I smelled it (on tester strip not on skin, maybe that’s the issue), I almost gagged, maybe Oud is not for me. But ombré leather is really good, but again that’s just my opinion.
Side note: Alexandria Fragrances has an inspiration of Tom Ford oud wood.
It’s called Agar Intense and is longevity is better, and the price is agreeable.
Personally I prefer Agar intense over the real thing.
The discontinued Noir Pour Femme is a very similar scent and has better longevity, however its a skin scent so overspray. I got a compliment from a lady saying I smell like "sexy baby powder" on St. Patrick's Day
Hi CF, love the video! You have me sold on Noir Extreme, do you recommend I get the one featured in the video or the newer version? Thanks
Black Orchid is really nice. Perfect sweet fragrance.
And Ombre Leather smells like I would be smelling a leather couch 😅
I was disappointed by Oud Wood's response. While I love Noir Extreme, but Oud Wood is miles ahead. I would say along with Dior Eau Sauvage Parfum, Oud Wood is my favorite smell of all.
P.S. Can't wait to find and try a sample of Thameen Carved Oud.
Thanks for the video ❤️ So good that i saw this before blindbuying ombre leather;)
Yup no skip it
@@CurlyFragrance sounds so great when you describes it;) But have to smell it first
@@ronnymunther9748 yes do that you gotta make sure that you like it
I love ombre leather one of my favourites 😏😎
Remember men, if youre watching this video to wear the cologne that the women prefer, take it with a grain of salt. You never ask a fish how to fish, you ask a fisherman. I personally believe you should find a cologne that you like and wear it with confidence because it will make everyone around you like you and the smell more if youre confident. Stay strong boys, god bless.
Curly - great video. I own TF Noir Extreme, TF Black Orchid EDT (not the EDP), TF Oud Wood and no, definitely do not own TF Ombre Leather (I smelled it and knew it would not be an appealing scent). I prefer TF Noir Extreme as well. What I like the most about your 'street' review videos, is that you do a great job getting women's opinions on scents, and I sense that when you do you own videos back at your place, you really represent what women would really like to smell on a guy.
Fragrance battles u should feature: PDM, Armani (including ADG, Code, SWY), Caroline Herrera, Dior, Chanel, Givenchy, Creed, Mancera …..
Surprised by reactions on Ombre Leather. Tom Ford is my favourite label. Back then I really loved Patchouli absolu. Such a shame it's discontinue. Ombre Leather is an unusual scent that captivated my senses immediately. Love it
I like Ombre Leather so much, I'd wear it just for me (I plan to get it some time)
Great reaction video and I enjoyed it and I like all of these fragrances and have a blessed day
Thanks Michael 😃
You welcome keep up the good work
You have to get your nose on the Noir extreme parfum. For me I'm very impressed. Takes you on a great journey with that leather. Don't judge on initial spray. Can't wait for the cooler months so I can wear it...might have to sissy spray though, as great longevity.
Which should I buy, ombre leather or Noir extreme? They're both very good perfumes
Just bought noir extreme last week and i gotta say its absolutely stunning
Noir extreme is so so good. I just wish it lssted longer. The parfum version will be my next buy.
im wearing black orchid right now. It has a nice softness to it, but it does have an antiquated smell. I rather enjoy it for nostalgic reasons but would not choose it for a public outing. Of the Tom Ford I have tried, Ombre Leather has gotten the heads turning.
I bought a bottle of Polo Oud wood Supreme years ago and still have it and today I bought a bottle of Tom Fords Oud Wood and they smell identical at a ¼ of the price.
Time to bring out the Black Orchid
Ombre Leather is my winter gear. I'm happy with it.
Hey just bought tom Ford noir extreme sprayed on bus BAM!!!!!
reviews are awesome and vibrant
i own Black orchid and Noir Exrtreme and they do wonders for me in terms of compliments, but my favourite is tobacco vanille
If you want a good longevity smelling like tom ford noir extreame, get the Odyssey homme from Armaf the black one. It is just exquisit and 5 times cheaper
3:04 bird was tryna get a smell
These results puzzle me...the Dillard's in the mall was doing a Tom Ford promotion and doing the same type of testing with random women and guys stuck around for a while to get different opionions. We observed hands down women picking Ombre Leather over the ither TF fragrances. Noir Extreme came in a distant 2nd but one after the other picked OL....not sure if this video was edited to show "her" preference of the 4 but we just saw group after group in the mall pick Ombre Leather.
I used to work Tom Ford promos in Saks from 2014 to 2019 and did the Noir Extreme launch in 2015 and Ombré Leather launch in 2018. The most popular scents with women shopping for men’s fragrances collectively over the years were Noir Extreme, Grey Vetiver, and Tobacco Vanille. These were based on vendor sales (heavily sample driven) in our region which was southwest (I’m based out of Texas). Ombré leather did get a lot of reactions but was either too intense or off putting, especially from opening spray on tester strips. It ranked usually in the bottom half of our top 10 in sales, which still wasn’t bad out of the number of SKUs we had. Most purchases for Ombré Leather that we observed were men.
I wish you’d put Acqua di Gio or Versace pour Homme in every “Women React” video. 4 Tom Fords or 4 Parfums de Marly and 1 popular aquatic would always win
Wat is het toch fijn om jou vaak op me scherm te zien! ❤
❤❤❤😃
Layer Black Orchid with Orchid Soleil (for the non heat/night time). Thank me later. Doesn’t smell old, beast mode projection, lasts longer.
Hi there Curly. Your advice of adding ambroxan for projection, will that work for any frag, is it a well known trick? Does it have side effects, as in does it change the scent profile? Thanks for the vids :)
Ombre leather is the best Tom Ford fragrance, I did not like on paper, but sprayed on my nevertheless, when I got home I couldn’t get enough of it, went and bought it. It needs to dry on a masculine man not on paper
Great video Michella,the girls have spoken, other options offer more than Ford
I've been wearing Ombre Leather in 2nd year high school, and will rebuy it!
You won't get complimentsif you don't have confidence to wear it
First video I have watched by you. Great video and like your enthusiasm.
Hi Curly love your channel! Would you recommend Molecule 1 or 2 to help with TF Oud Wood? Thanks
best tom ford hands down is Tobacco Oud
i already knew even before i watched the video, noir extreme is amazing, likeable, just so good
Really great video. Beau De Jour is my favorite Tom Ford. Actually has great performance too. Battle suggestion would be Parfums De Marley. Everyone’s favorite niche house. Love to Layton, Sedley, Percival and maybe Herod battle it out. Couple cold weather vs. freshies.
