Tom Ford Noir Extreme Parfum

Description

Tom Ford Noir Extreme Parfum is the deeper, sweeter, more resinous evolution of the cult 2015 Eau de Parfum. Released in 2022 and composed by perfumer Sonia Constant, this Parfum concentration takes the original's warm-spicy amber signature and turns up the richness — opening with bright cardamom, ginger and mandarin before melting into a creamy, dessert-like "kulfi" heart (an Indian cardamom-pistachio ice cream accord) wrapped in vanilla, amber, tonka and smooth woods. It earned the Fragrance Foundation's Men's Luxury Fragrance of the Year award in 2023. Fans describe it as more grown-up, more sensual and longer-lasting than the EDP.

Scent Character

• Woody — 24%

Translation: a warm, woody-sweet amber with a creamy gourmand heart and a soft floral-spice lift — cozy and refined rather than sharp.

FAQ

How is the Parfum different from the original Noir Extreme EDP? The 2022 Parfum is richer, sweeter and more resinous, with stronger amber, vanilla and woods, and noticeably better longevity than the 2015 EDP.

What is the "kulfi" note? Kulfi is a creamy Indian cardamom-pistachio ice cream accord — it gives the heart its signature dessert-like, gourmand warmth.

Is it men's or women's? It's marketed for men, but the warm sweet-amber character wears comfortably as a unisex fragrance.

How long does it last? Expect 10+ hours on skin, often longer on clothing — among the strongest performers in the Tom Ford lineup.
