One waft of Tom Ford’s new perfume Sahara Noir evokes fantasies of this 1959 Fritz Lang (of Metropolis wonder) film The Tomb of Love and the beautiful snake dance by Debra Paget. Inspired by the mystery and luxury of the middle east this perfume evokes traditional Arabian incense using Frankincense to create a deep and substantial scent. Blended with this resinous aroma are also lighter notes of citrus essence and bitter orange as well as Jordanian calamus and Levantine cypress to lend a fresh yet sweet richness. With hints of delicate cinnamon, Egyptian jasmine templar and rose absolute from Morocco this scent lingers on the skin and transports you to the mysterious and magical deserts of the Middle East with different layers and notes constantly coming to life. The stunning gold version of Tom Ford’s signature perfume bottle also wouldn’t look out of place on your dressing table adding a touch of luxury to anyone’s boudoir.
