Tom Ford Private Blend Oud Wood, Sample
‘Regal’ and ‘Opulent’ are words that immediately spring to mind when we think of Tom Ford’s Oud Wood. Oud Wood was part of the original Private Blend collection, launched in 2007 and remains one of the most popular.
This fragrance opens with a burst of exotic cardamom, creating a spicy, aromatic introduction that is brightened by the subtle warmth of pink pepper. The addition of rosemary lends a touch of herbal freshness, setting the stage for the rich complexity that unfolds. As the scent evolves, the heart reveals a sumptuous layer of sandalwood, offering a creamy, smooth touch that harmonises with the deep, resinous character of agarwood. Patchouli adds an earthy depth, while vetiver imparts a dry, grassy nuance, enhancing the woody elegance of the composition.
In the dry-down, the fragrance reveals its softer side, as the base notes of vanilla and tonka bean introduce a sweet, creamy quality that is both comforting and luxurious. Amber adds a warm, golden glow, ensuring the scent lingers with an inviting richness. This intricate interplay of notes creates an atmosphere of understated elegance and sophistication, enveloping the wearer in a veil of timeless allure.
