Clean, Modern, Masculine
One can discuss enough negatives about Tom Ford, but as soon as the house dares to try something new, it finds more than just resonance in the perfume world.
The FF can be seen as a pioneer of a modern men's fragrance, just like OUD Wood was 10 years ago. It combines soft creamy accords and modern playfulness with masculine leathery notes. It is timeless, elegant, and mature.
I remember well when I first smelled it a few years ago.
This fragrance left a lasting impression on me; it made me addicted within a day and eventually became my first Tom Ford and my entry into the world of perfume, outside of classic designers. I deliberately do not say niche world, as I now look at the scene with a different perspective and consider Tom Ford, despite its success and legitimacy, also as a designer who demands prices from the niche world.
I got to know the fragrance as a unisex scent and would today say it is definitely masculine. If it were fresher and less dry, it might be unisex or completely feminine leaning - for this reason, I see the fragrance as perfectly balanced.
The scent opens with a creamy almond - lavender - combo.
Shortly after, this note settles on leather with a dry sage accent, and the clean iris rounds off the accord.
With fresh elegance, almost slightly floral, the journey continues.
It remains creamy and feels a bit darker, almost dirty, but on a very pleasant level in the dry down.
The fragrance lives up to its name.
It makes you appear unique.
It is for men who are not afraid of the future, who live with the times and stand firm in their own ideals, yet refresh themselves at every good opportunity without being hindered by overthinking stubbornness. Tolerant and open-minded.
