So, this is an evolution from the original Noir and then Noir Extreme, but in a similar scale to Oud Minerale, it has taken a more subversive journey to reach its destination.

Noir Anthracite “reflects the light in the dark” which comes through in the design of the bottle which holds a magnetic can metal reflective surface. The scent itself features a deep bergamot with spice against a rich black cedar wood, Macassar and santal Sri Lanka – which really elevates the heritage of the brand against a Middle Earth backdrop.

Overall it is equally enticing as its predecessors but with a nuanced subtlety that says modesty for a transient social climate. It’s really well thought out. Thank you, Tom Ford.

Here is a mini-editorial to showcase the fragrance that I shot with Phellipe Souza featuring Noir Anthracite. Hands and script by me, knit by Ada + Nik.
