In one word: exquisite. Perhaps it’s not as famous, but that’s its magic. It’s the only gourmand I own and I still haven’t been able to replace it.
Three weeks ago I tried Godolphin (looking for leather) and Tom Ford Noir Extreme. The latter was wonderful, almost took it home, but it reminded me too much of Spicebomb Extreme. In the end I chose Godolphin by Parfums de Marly. Does anyone else experience this? I still want to buy it.
A gourmand for men, a perfect vanilla cake for informal winter situations. Not for work or serious events, but for celebrations, dinners, dates or clubbing. I’ve worn it for three years and still enjoy it. I recommend trying it on skin before buying.
Fantastic perfume! Exquisite, plain and simple. At first you can’t imagine it, but as it dries it becomes the best: amber, vanilla and woods, a sublime and addictive aroma. I loved it and I’ll keep trying more Tom Ford jewels.
Once again surprised that there are only male reviews. Dare to try it! The universe of ‘men’s fragrances’ has fascinating surprises for women’s skin. An enveloping blend of cardamom, nutmeg, saffron, citrus, florals, vanilla, amber, woods and sandalwood. It’s worth it and shouldn’t be limited to men. On my skin it’s a caress: sweet, solar, fresh and warm. It’s my most welcoming, intimate, close and elegant gourmand.
I haven’t bought it yet, but I tried a sample and it was simply exquisite. I adore the Tom Ford house: Black Orchid was my first gift and I’m still exploring. Noir Extreme surpasses everything I’ve owned. I can’t describe it, but applying it gave me a shiver; my whole being was delighted. Strong without being offensive, intense without being unpleasant. The evolution of the notes is a sensory experience; everyone asks what I’m wearing. Fascinating.
Ideal for cold days, sexy and seductive. Unisex with a masculine leaning due to its strong woody notes. One of my favourites, alongside Spicebomb Extreme, for winter.
A niche aroma that captivates anyone who tries it, except perhaps Tom Ford’s private collection. The rest are pleasant and reasonably priced. It may project less and last shorter, but the scent is exquisite. Sonia Constant creates masterpieces, and this Noir Extreme is no exception.
Oh my goodness, this is pure love! Sweet & Spicy, made to my measure. Forget gender labels; it’s a delight for anyone who knows how to enjoy well-crafted scents.
Sophisticated, elegant and sensual: that’s how I define it. A luxury in every drop.
Delicious. Very elegant, very niche. But strangely it reminds me of Daniel Josier’s Mystery Oud, which costs three times less! 😅🤷🏼♂️
Perfectly balanced, the kulfi stands out a little but isn’t heavy or overly sweet. It makes you want to eat this fragrance 🥵
The ultimate date perfume; I have no words to express the pleasure it gives me to smell. A gourmand composition where the main notes are cardamom and some other spices, but what gives it charm is that creamy base created by the kulfi and sandalwood combined with vanilla. This screams seduction and class; a very sensual and erotic perfume that works wonders on dates because its olfactive profile doesn’t project much, staying within your personal bubble, but that opens the door for the other person to be invited into physical closeness. It’s an addictive scent worth the price, bearing the Tom Ford seal (class, elegance and seduction). Totally recommended, my favourite Tom Ford perfume for now.
I picked this up at Glasgow airport a week ago. It’s enchanting, elegant, modern and very sensual. It invites closeness. I’m itching to wear it tonight on a date with my wife. For men who know what they want, but beware. If a woman dares to wear this, she’ll be hooked.
It literally smells like night. Quite creamy vanilla (I suppose it’s the famous kulfi) with a hint of rose and makeup. When I let a friend smell it, the first thing he said without any prompting was that it smelled like ‘a party night’. It really evokes that feeling. It could suit a woman perfectly, but on a man it gives the impression of a stylish young adult. Performance is good, leaning towards moderate. It’s pricey but worth every penny.
Noir Extreme is one of those fragrances capable of transporting you to an autumn night, the air charged with mystery and luxury, as if you were entering a private salon where whisky, exotic spices and noble wood fill the atmosphere. The first impression is overwhelming, a hit of cardamom and nutmeg, which feels like a warm embrace but with that intriguing point that keeps the senses alert. As it settles, appears what for me is the heart of Noir Extreme: a familiar smell but one you are unable to identify, that type of scent for which you ask for help on Fragrantica and… ah, a creamy kulfi bathed in vanilla and amber. We jump from Fragrantica to Wikipedia to find out what that mysterious kulfi is: ‘Kulfi is a very popular dessert in Pakistan based on an ice cream made with boiled milk. Kulfi can have various flavours depending on whether it has been flavoured with pistachio, malai, mango, cardamom, apple, peanut and/or saffron; in this case it provides a very attractive orange colour for Hindus.’ Here is where the fragrance shines and, at the same time, becomes more personal. The sweetness is enveloping, but far from cloying, it has control over itself. Sometimes I close my eyes and it seems to me that I am in some spice market at dusk, that moment when the smells of sweets and spices intermingle in the air. I am surprised by how well the amber integrates, which does not fall into the overloaded, something that usually happens with other oriental perfumes. And although the damn ambroxan is present, it does not abuse it, which I appreciate, as it is usually my Achilles’ heel. Here it simply balances the composition, adding that fresh and clean touch that contrasts wonderfully with the opulence of the deeper notes. What captivates me about Noir Extreme is that it is not boxed in. It is elegant, yes, but with a provocative touch that makes it suitable for more than formal dinners or etiquette events. This fragrance is pure versatility: it works both on a cold night and on an autumnal sunset, although perhaps I would not choose it for days of intense heat. The sweetness and spice would feel out of place in stifling environments. Now, it is not a fragrance for everyone, of course. The dense and spicy sweetness can be too much for those looking for something fresher or lighter. For me, however, it is that type of fragrance I enjoy occasionally, like when you treat yourself to an elaborate dessert after a good meal: it is not something you need every day, but when you do, you enjoy it to the full. As for its longevity, it is okay but not one of those that is hard to remove from the skin; by 5-6 hours it is almost gone. It could last longer, but I do not mind reapplying it as long as I can return to that intense opening and the way it evolves. Its greatest flaw is its price, which, without being prohibitive, forces one to be sparing with reapplication and reserve it for special occasions.
I understand the devotees, but it’s not my style. I perceive a citrus punch at the start with spices. Then, as it dries down, a sweet part stands out, like a dessert… which on my skin highlights a milky tone that doesn’t suit me. I don’t dislike it, but it’s not for me. Cold seasons and versatile. Very, very limited projection.
Tom Ford Noir Extreme: Batch ‘2020’. First, the resemblance to Armaf’s Odissey Black Edition is justified, although in my perception they only resemble each other a little; if they play in the same league, they are two different things. The curious thing is that I prefer the Armaf one, while my wife prefers the Tom Ford Noir Extreme. She says this one is adult, dark, sexy and perfect, while the Armaf one is more youthful, amateur, easy-going and flashy. The truth is that Noir Extreme is striking, suggestive and irresistible. A cunning fragrance that actively seeks personal and general satisfaction. It is characterised by a quick and unexpected reaction, like an impulse that generates with force. It is an appetising, desirable and mischievous fragrance, as it has a clear intention to obtain and retain the attention of whoever is in front of you. It shows a way of distinguishing itself as special; it is an extroverted and assertive aroma. Hard to describe the emotions it provokes, but in summary: if you have the personality, style, intelligence and means, this fragrance exhibits you with those qualities. It is sweet but fresh, not cloying, simply adorning the scene by combining cardamom and vanilla: a warm yet fresh and refined aroma that gives comfort and security. For me it is a luxurious fragrance, for a young adult winner in every sense, a winning man, confident in himself who knows what he wants and generally gets it. Its use is totally nocturnal. As for performance in my case it has been good; its ingredients are of superior quality. It is expensive, but every penny is worth it. I do not know if it has been reformulated. Scent: 10. Projection: 2 hours. Longevity: 5 hours on skin, 7 on clothes. Recommended.
As redundant as it sounds, this fragrance is a triumph, a wonderful high-end gourmand composition: sophisticated, elegant and sensual. I perceive it as very mature, highlighting the nutmeg and cardamomo until reaching the note that makes it unique: ‘Kulfi’, which gives it a creamy and slightly milky air, rounding out its woody and vanilla notes. I find it very wearable, nothing invasive, with intimate projection in cold weather and at night. It’s like a truffle and vanilla dessert; being this TFNE my favourite from Tom Ford, right alongside Costa Azzura Parfum. My only objection is that here I only have three months of cold a year, so I refrain from buying my first bottle to keep it, although I have tried it in samples and decants as it is easy to get since it is the commercial TF line. Curiously, I discovered it when a woman from my family who works in the medical sector was wearing it. So it can be quite unisex in reality.
Brutal fragrance. I cannot praise it enough, even though it is Tom Ford and certainly not cheap. To be honest: it would be a masterpiece if it lasted longer and projected better. Of course, there’s a reason they released the Parfum, though I don’t own it. This one is a delight, almost a masterpiece. For me, from start to finish: it opens strong, then becomes spicy, vanilla-scented, powdery and creamy. Obviously sweet. I confirm, it has a certain maturity, sexy depending on the occasion and how you wear it; not for youthful clubs, though everyone is entitled to their opinion. I see it for meetings, dates, dinners or formal parties. It’s more for being close, enjoying it personally or with your partner in intimacy. All of this is my experience and personal viewpoint, as I am not an expert. Cheers!
After several months I want to re-evaluate it. What does it smell like? During the first 5 or 10 minutes it’s ultra-spiced: the cardamom and vanilla make an extremely intense combination, like a spice market. It’s not bright or for everyone; it has many dark nuances, even at the start it’s a bit unpleasant, at least for me. After those ten minutes, it becomes more resinous or woody without forgetting the vanilla and cardamom. That resinous scent reminds me of a trip to cabins in the forest I had years ago; that scent lasts the whole life of the perfume. Which occasions seem correct to me? A funeral or a sexual date. It’s really not versatile. In my opinion, it’s an extremely challenging perfume. Do I recommend it? If you’re a very serious man with a dominant personality, then yes. Otherwise, forget it, Tom Ford has many other fragrances for you.
I want to eat it; it smells like walking into a bakery selling bread. The vanilla is the richest and subtlest I’ve ever smelled (I specify this because I hate it in perfumes). It seems quite unisex, what richness? Nothing heavy, nothing intrusive or explosive, nor do I consider it sweet enough. Simply, it’s a beauty.
Tested dry with two sprays. It’s a jewel of perfumery. It denotes superior quality but is pleasant for everyone. Vanilla, creamy, lactonic; it’s everything I’ve experienced. For the price there will be better options, undoubtedly, but this is bottled class. Totally unisex.
Total disappointment. I went to the perfumery to test the Parfum and they made a mistake and gave me the EDP; I decided to keep it because originally I liked this one, which is less spiced. However, the longevity and projection of the new batches are abysmal: 4 hours on my skin with very soft projection. Perhaps for a romantic date or a moment when you don’t want your perfume to be noticed beyond a very short distance, that’s where you’d find what you’re looking for.
It reminded me of Minotaur by Paloma Picasso.
Moderate, slightly sweet, floral and elegant, yet with body; it has a base that gives it balanced masculinity. Overall it’s a bit linear but with great charm. The secret is that subtle contained floral sweetness held back by a woody base; it pleases both girls and men. Ideal for the office or for projecting a pleasant and seductive aura; it’s not a bomb but will earn compliments. It’s not of great impact, more balanced and captivating. If you’re looking for something innovative or high-impact, perhaps it’s not your option, but for special occasions where you want to look seductive and balanced, it’s a good alternative.
It smells a bit soapy to me. I’ve tested it several times and always get a soap note. I expected it to be more vanilla. I don’t quite like it, neither for men nor for women.
Delicious from start to finish, designed for mature men. But given the price, I prefer buying Spicebomb by Victor & Rolf, which is basically the same perfume in a different bottle. I own Spicebomb and tested Noir Extreme in a perfumery; they are identical.
Elegant, sweet, slightly effeminate and ‘masculine’. It has decent projection but poor longevity, which isn’t bad if you see it as something discreet and intimate; seriously, it lasts so little you could use it as a skin scent.
The most spectacular of them all: enchanting projection without being intrusive. That dark spiced vanilla makes Noir Extreme one of Tom Ford’s most versatile and delicious fragrances, unlike others that divide opinion. Some may say it’s commercial, but its ultra-refined quality doesn’t dip a point. Nowadays, people just want to smell rich; no one stops to think if it’s ‘commercial’ or not. Conclusion: do you want something that pleases and enchants with TF quality? Noir Extreme. I recommend it 100% if you have the chance to try it.
It’s a work of art, like a painting by a great artist. Translating it into words is difficult, but anyone who hasn’t tried it will know that when it dries it smells like freshly baked walnut biscotti with vanilla ice cream. Smells like a warm, comforting dessert, so real and appetising that you almost want to taste it.
It smells rich and interesting when fresh, but once it dries on the skin I don’t like it as much. I don’t know exactly why, but that dry-down makes me a bit dizzy. I suspect it’s down to the lentisc resin or the kulfi, leaving an unappealing mossy nuance. My girlfriend didn’t like it either, although I told her it was Tom Ford. Lucky it was a 2 ml decant that cost me $10, so it’s just another proof in my hobby without regrets. Final rating: 7.1/10.
Right up there in elegance, it changes my mood. For me, it’s the best in the line and one of my favourites from Tom Ford.
At first I thought I’d overestimated my expectations of TF. The fragrance isn’t bad, it has quality, but the price is high for a somewhat generic scent. It reminds me of a lady I know, who uses an Arabic perfume excessively and overwhelms me. The opening is rich, lasts seconds, then the spices take over with saffron, followed by an unknown sweet note and finally a very realistic vanilla. I feel it’s unisex; I’ll give it a chance because it might grow on me over time. Longevity: very good, over six hours on skin. Season: winter and night. Sillage: more personal. Today 03/02/2026, in my country it’s 16 degrees, here in the Caribbean it’s cold, and I’m taking advantage to wear it. Wow! The truth is it’s absolutely delicious and definitely for cold weather and night (I’d tested it on rainy, humid days), simply shines, I’ve changed my mind completely. Season: definitely cold and night. Sillage: medium-personal. Longevity: over ten hours on clothes and over eight on skin.
I was about to throw it away after months of use, but I missed testing it in winter. In the cold, it unleashes its best version, super delicious with all the interesting notes active. Ideal for going out or seducing, masculine unisex. Although I prefer the Noir Extreme for that leather note.
An exclusive perfume for hooking up with sugar mummies, no joke: in classy places the ladies stare right at you, one even approached and said it was the best scent she’d ever tried. Since then, I haven’t worn it again.
I’ve never smelled anything like it. I save it for special occasions. I don’t know if it’s the Kulfi, but it has that something that makes it unique.
Very good, with class.
This perfume is brilliant, super cosy, seductive and creamy. Leaves a velvety and rich sensation. I think it’s unisex; at first I thought of the Noir Pour Femme edition but they didn’t have it and I have no regrets about the purchase. It’s my favourite alongside Velvet Orchid.
Caught it off the cuff while testing them in a row and it stuck with me. Managed to get the small decant. It’s like 1 Million but modernised, more opulent and refined, with that ‘intoxicating’ vibe used in English for perfumes that are too pleasant. Spiced opening with creamy middle and base notes: vanilla, ambroxan, superambers and cashmeran, which give it a woody aura and even a fresh touch to that amber and vanilla. The kulfi accord is a hit. One of the best for seduction out there.
