“Cardamom and dark florals — the evening scent of someone who keeps interesting company.”
The gourmand-leaning entry in Tom Ford's Noir collection — Sonia Constant's 2015 flanker to Olivier Gillotin's original 2012 Noir EDP. A warm-spicy oriental anchored by cardamom and saffron, with a kulfi-vanilla heart that defines the Noir Extreme character. Most popular in fall and winter, leaning evening. Sits in the same warm-spicy-gourmand lane as Spicebomb Extreme and PDM Herod.
