Black Orchid by Tom Ford is a dark, rich and earthy floral, one that lives mostly in the shade. Released in 2006, it is unisex and tends to attract people who want a scent with presence. The top notes are a striking mix: truffle and black currant, with bergamot, mandarin and Amalfi lemon, plus gardenia, ylang-ylang and jasmine close behind. Orchid and lotus lead the heart notes, with spices and a soft fruitiness warming them. The base notes carry its best moments: Mexican chocolate, patchouli, vanilla and incense over amber, with sandalwood, vetiver and white musk. Voters keep it for winter, in the evening and at night, and going out is its natural setting. The community vote tilts long-lasting for longevity and strong for sillage, so ease in gently. Weeks with a 10ml decant will tell you whether it earns a bottle.
