The selection
Tom Ford Noir de Noir
Tom Ford Noir de Noir, by Tom Ford, comes without a recorded note list on our pages. Do not judge it next to other perfumes on the same arm, as they blur each other.
Tom Ford Grey Vetiver
For Tom Ford Grey Vetiver from Tom Ford we hold no notes; wear it and judge. Wear it on more than one day before you make up your mind.
Tom Ford Tuscan Leather
Tom Ford Tuscan Leather by Tom Ford: no note list is on record with us, so the sample page sticks to name and house. Pay attention to what is still there by the evening, since that is the part you live with longest.
Tom Ford Soleil de Feu
Tom Ford also has Tom Ford Soleil de Feu. We have no pyramid on file for it. Give it time to settle before you judge it.
Tom Ford Noir Extreme
Tom Ford Noir Extreme is on the list from Tom Ford. Its notes are not on record here, and we do not guess them. Clothes hold a scent differently from skin, which makes a scarf or sleeve a useful second test.
Tom Ford Eau de Soleil Blanc

Tom Ford Cherry Smoke

Tom Ford Santal Blush

How to test them
Spray it on the inside of your wrist or elbow and do not rub. Apply one or two sprays to clean skin, without other scented products nearby. Note what you think each time, and read your notes back at the end of the week. Check it after a few minutes, around midday and in the evening.
A decant gives you time with it, which a quick spray on a paper strip never does. Two or three samples at a time is plenty; more than that and the impressions blur. Start with 2, 5 or 10 ml and give it a few days, so that the first impression is not the only one.

Questions
Which sizes do the samples come in?
Every sample comes as 2, 5 or 10 ml in a glass spray vial. The smallest is enough for a first impression, the larger ones for many wearings.
How many samples should I try at once?
Two or three is a good number. Wear one per day, on clean skin, and write down what you notice in the morning and in the evening before you move to the next.
What is a decant?
Perfume moved from the original bottle into a smaller vial. Ours are filled by FragranceGems into glass spray vials and labelled by us, so you can wear a perfume before you decide on a bottle.
