Tom Ford Velvet Orchid EDP, Sample
Velvet Orchid is a stunning Amber Floral fragrance for women. This rich and alluring composition blends floral notes with precious woods and resins for a seductive and unforgettable scent. At the opening, a warm wave of rum and honey wraps around the senses, adding a sweet, boozy richness that is brightened by the citrusy sparkle of mandarin orange and bergamot. This initial burst is both inviting and luxurious, setting the stage for what follows.
As the scent evolves, the heart reveals a bouquet of exotic and enchanting florals. The dark, mysterious allure of black orchid is intertwined with the creamy and powdery facets of heliotrope and jasmine, creating a lush and opulent floral heart. Soft whispers of hyacinth and the sweet, airy notes of rose oil and magnolia add depth and complexity, while the narcissus and orange blossom lend a fresh, green touch that beautifully balances the floral symphony.
In the dry-down, the fragrance settles into a warm, sensual embrace. The base notes of vanilla and myrrh provide a creamy, balsamic sweetness, enriched by the smooth suede and the earthy, resinous character of sandalwood and labdanum. Peru balsam adds a warm, slightly spicy undertone, creating a lingering trail that is both comforting and captivating. Velvet Orchid is a fragrance of contrasts, where the interplay of light and dark, sweet and resinous, creates a truly unforgettable olfactory experience.
