Tom Ford Private Blend Oud Wood Eau de Parfum 50ml Spray Captivating Essence Out of the bottle it

Out of the bottle it smells green and slightly briny

medium depth that reads golden rather than orange — the shade that actually matches the skin when you're tanned

and the formula sits put through lunch without the cracking some mattes do

The neck cream acknowledges that the neck ages faster and deserves its own routine

Two or three sprays hold from morning through the evening

Tom Ford Private Blend Oud Wood Eau de Parfum 50ml Spray Captivating Essence Out of the bottle itOud is the headline that woody, almost leathery note that sits between incense and aged timber. Tom Ford wraps it in cardamom and a whisper of amber, so it lands closer to contemplative than exotic. Unisex EDP, 50ml. Four to five hours on skin, longer on fabric. A single spray is enough; two if you're dressing for an evening and want it to linger past the first conversation.
