Tom Ford White Musk Collection

This included a range of scents the first being Black Orchid created by Givaudan. Housed in a black ribbed bottle with rounded top and gold plaque it’s a rich sensual, dark floral like no other of its time. An exotic blend of fruits, citruses. Gardenia, black orchid, lotus, chocolate, vanilla patchouli, amber and sandalwood. This remarkable scent became a best seller. With this he also launched Tom Ford Private collection. A collection of square heavy black glass decanters with classical gold plaques makes these flacons stylish and sort after.

Between 2006 to 2010 this collection grew to include some of the most elegant and tasteful fragrances to date. There are now 16 sultry scents in this collection plus 3 in his Men’s range. All of these scents have been created using rare and romantic ingredients. From incenses & Ouds from the Far East, blended with tobacco, leather or rare flower from the islands, the Private Collection’s reputation is one of sultriness and sensuality.

In 2008 Ford was inspired by the patchouli widely used in the 70’s and again with the help from Givaudan White Patchouli was born. Ford wanted a softer more alluring patchouli scent not the usual heady, heavy patchouli of the 70’s.This blend of white flowers, jasmine, rose, coriander, bergamot, peony married with patchouli exudes a light hearted sensual scent which became yet another success for Tom Ford.

In 2009 White Musk Collection was launched, and like its predecessor White Patchouli, these bottles are clear with white caps in contrast to the black of the Private Collection with the same classic gold name plate. Tom Ford used an old 80’s favourite, namely, musk. In the 80’s musk based perfumes were the rage, Dior introduced Poison, Cacharel had Lou Lou, YSL had Opium all these exquisite classic scents were heavy with musk and vanilla. Rich opulent oriental fragrances reminiscent of Moroccan markets and exotic Middle Eastern dancers. White Musk Collection has some of this exotic connection but in all these 4 musk scents have a velvet, provocative, carnal tone about them.

Urban Musk with its ambrette seed, white pepper, cumin, honey, jasmine, plum and musk is pure passion in a bottle. There is nothing coy or shy about this scent. It stirs the fire from within of erotic pleasures. This is the dominatrix of the 4 scents complete with leather and whip.

White Suede with Bulgarian rose, thyme, saffron, lily of the valley, suede, leather, amber, sandalwood and musk is elegant and classy. The lofty heiress with her polite decorum. Feminine and at the same time sensual. A completely alluring scent.

This is the scent of every man’s dream girl. Whatever her look, this is the scent of the modern woman.
