Noir Extreme Parfum

Noir Extreme Parfum is the 2022 parfum concentration of Tom Ford's Noir Extreme, again composed by Sonia Constant. It is floral first for everyone, and about half of wearers also describe it as spicy, sweet, woody, leathery and citrusy, which shows how evenly balanced the rest of it is.

Cardamom and ginger give the opening a brisk, warm spice, with mandarin, neroli and citrus notes keeping it bright. The heart keeps the kulfi note of the original, a milky, nutty dessert accord, wrapped in orange blossom, Bulgarian rose and jasmine. The base is darker than before: suede and leather join tonka bean, vanilla and amber, with cedar and guaiac wood adding a dry, slightly smoky woodiness.

Most people find it long lasting or moderate, with moderate sillage. It is voted mainly for winter and autumn and strongly for nights out. It suits men who liked the original but wanted more leather and a little less sweetness.
