From WWD’s story released at the original launch in 2007:
Ford Says,”When I was creating Black Orchid [his women´s scent, launched in November], I kept smelling other things I liked — many of which were too expensive to use in a broadly distributed fragrance, and others that we can´t use for a broader fragrance because they won´t appeal to everyone. I kept putting more and more things aside. Finally, it just seemed to make sense to develop them for my store.”
He states these are fully developed fragrances and not one-note products.
Dear Perfume people,
Can you tell me how much of each of the perfumes you will be giving us in your
sample sets? Are these little vials a la the classic English sampler? I would be
interested perhaps if I knew what we were getting.
Also, do you have a sample set of Black Orchid? Who has that scent available for
trying? Is it in any of the larger department stores or online.
Thanks, Rebecca
Hi. In the link above, it describes the size of the sample. They are the classic 1 ml sample vial with each scent in them.
I do have samples of Black Orchid as well in my store. Click on the Fragrant Fripperies ad in the upper left. It is also available in larger department stores, yes.
Um…yeah. I’m on it!
Tom Ford devotees of the world – unite & take over…:)
Hey, Mike, I know. I love to hate Tom, and just can’t resist wanting to smell these!
And I keep repeating to myself–I did NOT like Black Orchid!!
Stop it, stop it, stop it! I am just picking myself up off the floor about the Chanels. I do NOT need to hear about Noir Noir, Black Violet, Tobacco Vanille, oud wood, or–save me–Tuscan leather. I will be strong. I will, at least wait for the reviews or until I can smell them in stores (what’s the point of living near all these good stores if I can never wait to smell the scents in them)>:((
I know. We had to swallow hard to decide to do this because teh bottles are so high and so many. I’m hoping there are some lovely winners in there!
They sound gorgeous, almost all of them… I have to pass because of the price but it sure is tempting… Perhaps some day when someone has actually reviewed them…
