I am going to have to strongly agree with you 2000% Tom Ford Extreme Noir is incredible!! It takes you off to a far away place. It's like a whisper!! But with a shout!!
Awesome video dude. Agreed that Noir Extreme is TF's best. Love that kulfi note, very unique. Have you tried ombre leather and beau de jour? those are 2 other signature line bangers that I really love too.
HUGE fan of beau de jour, almost made it to this video. Just feel it isn't that versatile, but yeah in the Summer time its a banger. My hottest fragrance take is I don't like ombre leather lol, I know it's a fan favorite, but whenever I smell it I just can't get past how strong the leather note it.
Really liked noir extreme but I passed on buying it because the performance was just horrible. It might be something unique to me but I was getting less than two hours before it became a skin scent. In three or four hours it was completely gone. Too bad because it really is a great scent.
Have you seen my video on how most people are wearing fragrances wrong? It would definitely help with performance because TF Noir Extreme is a performance beast: th-cam.com/video/QH-P219_Hi0/w-d-xo.html
Good job! There are sooo many TF fragrences to choose from but I agree with the ones you chose. I had F*ing Fabulous at #2 because I'm biased and was so in love with it when I wore it. Now I gotta try Noir Extreme next.
My good man, thank you for this video. I needed this. I don't mean to sound too overdramatic but there is just so much negativity in the fragrance community/TH-cam fragrance community, that it was beaten me down to the point that I've been withdrawing from anything fragrance related. But my fragrance hobby is 1 of the few things that actually makes me happy, so it was nice to see someone get enthusiastic and pumped up about fragrances again. Im going to subscribe right now and check out the rest of your channel 🤘
My guy! Thank you for your comment, seriously, it really means a lot to me that my content was able to resonate with you like that. Also I'm really new to this whole fragrance community and I'm so sorry to hear it has beaten you down but I promise you don't let anyone (even my videos for that matter) ever take you away from your hobby. Fragrances are meant to be shared and loved, its a pursuit of passion after all :) Also very much appreciate the sub, and the motivation to help me keep posting more! Out of curiosity, are there any topics you'd like to see me talk about?
@@SidChawla What about "secret weapon" fragrances that not a lot of people talk about? Everyone knows about the Most Wanted/One Million/Stronger with You/Spicebomb and all those crazy popular frags. How about some less heralded fragrances that have worked really well for you? Are you familiar with Michael Malul fragrances?? They don't exactly have a ton of great fragrances but their Jet Black and Citizen Jack lines are absolutely under the radar winners. Specifically Jet Black: Reserve and Jet Black: Platinum, Citizen Jack: Absolute and Citizen Jack: Mohave(which has the exact same note break down as the discontinued La Nuit De L'Homme Bleu Electrique by YSL). In fact I would have to say that out of the 200+ fragrances I own and the hundreds of layering combos I've experimented with over the years, Jet Black: Platinum or Reserve layered with Mercedes Benz: Select Night or Carolina Herrera 212 VIP Black are my most unique and complimented concoctions. Which reminds me of another video idea, Best Layering Combos!! 🤘 KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK MY BROTHER
I forgot to comment on the actual content. Great choices brother. Can't argue with any of them. Tom Ford is one of those houses man, they just elevate everything about you when you wear them. In a way that can't be replicated IMO. My personal top 5 would be 5) Mandarino Di Amalfi 4) Tobacco Vanille 3) Ebene Fume 2) Myrrhe Mystere 1) Noir Extreme (there really is no equal. I've tried dozens of clones/inspired by/dupes and they're not even close to the same level. I don't care what any1 says, if you think a $20 clone of a TF frag is just as good as the original, then you just don't get it)
Watching this video to see what samples to get. My favorite fragrance house is Amouage, I think they have one of the highest quality stuff. So far (from TF) I’ve only sampled Noir Extreme and tobacco Vanille. Noir Extreme smells pretty good, but I hate Tobacco Vanille. On my skin and or my nose, it smells like straight up Play-Doh. 😅 Good video, though
Amouage Reflection Man might be one of the best scents of all time, top 10 in that category for sure. I get that, Tobacco Vanille is extreme reactions only, either love it or hate it. Thanks for watching man! Def let me know what samples you ended up getting
Good list . I got all 5 🤓 my top 5 TF are Tuscan leather Oud minerale ( original private blend ) Noir anthracite Original noir Tobacco Oud But after this vid I just ordered soleil blanc … it was kind of on my radar for a while but based on the notes Inever picked it up … until now 👍
I love TF fragrances. I have Ebene Fume, Oud Wood, and Ombra Leather edp. I would have more if the ones i really like last longer. Especially at that price.
@SidChawla Ebene Fume is fantastic. Love it more than Oud Wood. Somehow, it triggers a familiarity for me. I can't recall the memories, but it feels familiar.
I completely disagree about oud wood. I work long hours in extreme heat at my job and it is only when I begin to sweat that this cologne really becomes amazing. People forget these colognes are popular in areas where it is hot year round so it's definitely not a seasonal cologne it's one that's made to make your sweat smell better
Appreciate the comment boss -- and that is a really interesting take, will have to wear my Oud Wood during the hot days and report back. But I do somewhat agree with that Oud Wood is popular in countries where it is hot year round typically so the logic makes sense.
Couldn't agree more. Oud Wood is a stunner in the summer. Great year round fragerance. I still prefer Versace Oud Noir over TF Oud Wood. Smell very similar but Oud Noir last alot longer.
@@SidChawla I only own Tuscan Leather and Grey Vetiver. I bought Noir de Noir for my girlfriend. I find Tom Ford’s frags to be eccentric. So, I only have a top three.
Top 5 is still means it is amazing scent. There are 30+ TF scents top 5 means it is still one of the best. Yes I agree longevity is great, but to me the top 4 are just superior. I still wear Oud Wood all the time - like I said top 5 means its still a banger
For fresh smell check out my best compliment getting fragrances for the Summer: th-cam.com/video/yXE-khMSnn0/w-d-xo.html T To be honest, Tom Ford is pretty mid at fresh scents, they excel at more Fall/Winter scents in my opinion. Only decent one is TF Grey Vetiver and Neroli Portofino for fresh scents.
Hot take but I never liked ombre leather, can't get past that strong leather note. Haha iI know its a fan favorite, maybe I'll give it a try again and see if my reaction has changed.
But can you truly say the other 4 are not better? Top 5 is still amazing, given there are 30+ Tom Ford scents. Anything top 5 is great, not sure when did that become a bad thing
Not saying nobody does it, just saying nobody did it outside of the niche world until Tom Ford started putting his scents out into the mainstream market
Dude good information, but offensive delivery please consider using standard adjectives to describe the fragrance. You seem like a bright guy...don't loose your audience due to bad language.

Exactly! Well said, love the idea of a whisper not a shout (might steal that for next time I describe this scent lol)
But dosnt last Long right
Love how you explained Noir with the Kulfi comparison, def helped me understand the fragrance haha
Haha appreciate the comment brother, Kulfi is def a strong one in this
Awesome video dude. Agreed that Noir Extreme is TF's best. Love that kulfi note, very unique.
Have you tried ombre leather and beau de jour? those are 2 other signature line bangers that I really love too.
Ombré leather is my fav as well
HUGE fan of beau de jour, almost made it to this video. Just feel it isn't that versatile, but yeah in the Summer time its a banger. My hottest fragrance take is I don't like ombre leather lol, I know it's a fan favorite, but whenever I smell it I just can't get past how strong the leather note it.

Appreciate you boss

You're gonna love Noir Extreme I promise, also its half the price of Fabulous so its a steal imo

love the way you describe fragrances, for once it’s not just about performance
I've never connected with others when they just describe “what notes” are in a fragrance. Thought I'd switch it up! Appreciate the feedback 🙏🏼
You are hilarious in your explanations, and are honest in your reviews, I subscribed🥂🤪
Thank you boss appreciate it!
Watching this video to see what samples to get. My favorite fragrance house is Amouage, I think they have one of the highest quality stuff.

Good list . I got all 5 🤓 my top 5 TF are
Tuscan leather
Oud minerale ( original private blend )
Noir anthracite
Original noir
Tobacco Oud
But after this vid I just ordered soleil blanc … it was kind of on my radar for a while but based on the notes Inever picked it up … until now 👍
You've got a great list there boss! I'm sure you'll love Soleil Blanc
I love TF fragrances. I have Ebene Fume, Oud Wood, and Ombra Leather edp. I would have more if the ones i really like last longer. Especially at that price.
Yeah the performance has always been tricky with TF. Gotta try Ebene Fume haven't gotten my nose on that one yet
@SidChawla Ebene Fume is fantastic. Love it more than Oud Wood. Somehow, it triggers a familiarity for me. I can't recall the memories, but it feels familiar.
Oud Wood is one of my go to gym frags 👌🏼
Tobacco Vanille is the scent that brings me into the fragrance world
It’s James Bond in a bottle
Agreed, one of the best scents on the market.
Polo is great , I like Tommy h. But Tom Ford is great. Thanks for the video
Appreciate your comment! And can't go wrong with Polo, haven't smelled much Tommy h, will have to get my nose on it.
Js bought the Noir Extreme, imma let yall know the updates.
Top tier scent right there, sure you will love it 👍🏼
@@SidChawla it smells very classy, old money, i like it, definitely the type of cologne to rely on important meetings.
I prefer Aqua di Parma Essenza over Neroli Portofino.
Ah excellent choice there, my favorite out of ADP
I completely disagree about oud wood. I work long hours in extreme heat at my job and it is only when I begin to sweat that this cologne really becomes amazing. People forget these colognes are popular in areas where it is hot year round so it's definitely not a seasonal cologne it's one that's made to make your sweat smell better

Thanks for watching! Let me know below: What video do you want to see me do next? 👇🏼
Yeah, TF EN is the best. My favourite
EN stands for?
@@SidChawlaI think he means NE, as in Noir Extreme? Maybe?
Well, your Top 5 is certainly diff.
What is in your list?
@@SidChawla I only own Tuscan Leather and Grey Vetiver. I bought Noir de Noir for my girlfriend. I find Tom Ford’s frags to be eccentric. So, I only have a top three.
Man this is a fire list and it's so true NOIR EXTREME I HAD TO HIDE MY BACK UP BOTTLE FROM MY NEPHEW AND WIFE😂😂
Hahaha love that! Truly a god tier scent
I was about to sub until I saw that ombré leather didn’t make the list. Big miss.
Not a fan of ombre leather, not sure why people like it
Tuscan leather is the best
Definitely a banger, gotta get a new bottle of that one
Sorry bro. Oud Wood should be #1 not #5. You’re crazy for that. Also you didn’t factor in longevity where Oud Wood lasts all day.
Top 5 is still means it is amazing scent. There are 30+ TF scents top 5 means it is still one of the best. Yes I agree longevity is great, but to me the top 4 are just superior. I still wear Oud Wood all the time - like I said top 5 means its still a banger
Bhai tom ford omber leather hai mere pass mujhe fresh smell chahiye kon se tom ford ki hogi attractive smell yani ke wow wali smell plzz answer me 🙏
Tom ford tobacco vanille

Good to see Ben Shapiro expand his nose beyond politics.
Lol can't tell if this is a compliment but I'll take it
@@SidChawla if I have a sense of humor, hopefully you do too. 😂🤞🏼
I’m just messing with ya. But srsly, I appreciate the video, please keep ‘em coming.
Yoooo this was gold
Nose 👃 cuz Jews you know
But nose also because of fragrances.
Perfect joke ngl.
@ you read way more into that than I intended. 😂🤣
No ombré leather? Criminal
He compensated it with tusken leather
Hot take but I never liked ombre leather, can't get past that strong leather note. Haha iI know its a fan favorite, maybe I'll give it a try again and see if my reaction has changed.
Oud wood at 5… almost turned the video off
But can you truly say the other 4 are not better? Top 5 is still amazing, given there are 30+ Tom Ford scents. Anything top 5 is great, not sure when did that become a bad thing
Noir extreme edo very good, is probem very weak no lasting, parfum more better.
Nahh that can't be, check out my video on how to spray fragrance the right way will definitely help you: th-cam.com/video/QH-P219_Hi0/w-d-xo.html
Bruh oud wood number 5? NOOO please😂
Haha had to be done, versatility is just not there. But legit an incredible scent, I wear it all the time in the Winter.
You sweet summer child just a few minutes in and saying nobody does neroli or vetiver... get outta here
Not saying nobody does it, just saying nobody did it outside of the niche world until Tom Ford started putting his scents out into the mainstream market
Neroli portofino smells AWFUL! sorry
What do you not like about it?
Dude good information, but offensive delivery please consider using standard adjectives to describe the fragrance. You seem like a bright guy...don't loose your audience due to bad language.
Appreciate the advice my guy, will take into mind for my next one :)
Really? Collecting dust on my shelf.
Must be an expensive shelf
@SidChawla . 😆
