There's a scent for the pinnacle of sophistication and it's called Noir Extreme Parfum. It's Tom Ford's latest signature fragrance and the best father in the world deserves nothing less.

In a bold intensification of its predecessor, the original Noir Extreme, the creator's newest release on the universe of perfumes brings with it the exoticism of the four corners of the world as much as the classic elegance that is already the hallmark of the brand. “Noir Extreme Parfum expresses the dramatic duality of a refined man,” assures Ford, and that drama is palpable in the medley of handpicked notes. A high concentration of cardamom with its spicy touch, enriched with the warmth of Shimoga ginger and the sensuality of tonka bean and guaiac wood are the headliners in a fragrance that you’ll want to wear every day, as if it were a talisman. But these protagonists do not appear solo in this rendez-vous of international aromas: there are citrus notes, courtesy of Neroli essence from North Africa and Italian mandarin (by the way, also found in the original Noir Extreme) and even floral notes, which manifest themselves in a love triangle between Bulgarian rose, orange blossom and jasmine. The disruptor (what would life be without revolution?) is the tempting Indian kulfi accord, for an impactful final fragrance that exudes a woody warmth thanks to amber and woods of cedar from Texas and guaiac from Paraguay. At the end, there is vanilla (enriched with leather and a suede accord), but this perfume is far from vanilla: it is mature, luxurious and complex. But is there a best dad in the world that isn’t?
