So, in England, we can wear this for about 11 months of the year! 👍🏻

[@brandonmattheu]

Lol wish we could sometimes too

[@navy4735]

sad....is it that cold there> depressing.

[@gediminaskontrimas7992]

lucky England

[@cowboycrunchies]

@Navy47, I’d say the weather is pretty changeable here in the UK.

[@andrewnaismith98]

In Scotland we can wear it for all 12 months 😂

[@Liz-dragon-street.]

I bought it 2day and while im sitting at the wood stove right now and i just sprayed my Black orchid parfum .... pfff i am in love! This is more than just a crush

[@LewisTommason]

Okay I'm a little creeped out Ash. I was looking for a black orchid vs black orchid parfum on your channel about an hour ago. Couldn't find anything so fell asleep... and now I've woken up to this. Much appreciated 👍😅

[@air9music]

He did a first impression on this, just to let you know :)

[@TheZiza]

I have personally been using TF Black Orchid for 6 years straight. No scent in the world beats it!

[@Mikeaveli2682]

Got a 100ml bottle and wore it a few times. I also have the EDP. Pretty similar fragrances. If you hate/love one, you’ll likely hate/love the other. Worth a purchase? Depends on how much you like Black Orchid’s signature. I prefer the new parfum but again, it’s not that different based on my admittedly limited experience. I agree with pretty much everything you said. Like the original, performance borders on too strong.

[@Elena-er7zp]

I didn’t want to like it or admit it was better, but I LOVE IT!!!!!! The sweetness makes the parfum feel more alive and the edp feels like a thud on my skin. Oh jeez. This will be my 4th Black Orchid flanker.

[@ipodcrazy1030]

Tried both of the EDP and Parfum awhile ago and honestly i could not tell the difference. They smelled exactly the same and i might just grab the EDP since it's a little bit cheaper.

[@ardenpowers7730]

Spot on review !!! Perfect description ! I have no performance issues with the parfum version. I have both the edp (older batch) and parfum (batch A30 ) and prefer the parfum. However, I'm glad that I own both versions as they are somewhat different. Thanks as always for sharing

[@Glad2BGolden]

Great review, you gave me what I was looking for. Although I was initially blown away by the EDP, it was missing something like the sweet fruity notes that I like to wear. Will test this one soon.

[@tylero2112]

Edp is better imo

[@JayTheRed8]

This fragrance is the real deal, I absolutely love the subtle changes. IMO the EDP was a touch more feminine, and the Parfum is a touch more masculine.

[@Hk-qg8bv]

It’s crazy when this was released 100ml was $195 now it’s $230 almost 2 years later.

[@peterpiper4627]

It went up $35

[@ice319]

Just bought the parfum (gold bottle), and I've owned the eau de parfum (black bottle). The parfum is a long lasting, slightly more masculine scent that will turn heads wherever you go. Both bottles are amazing, but the parfum lasts all day. I am home now from a long day at work, and I still smell it on me. 👍🏾

[@balazs7235]

As much as I say I’d love it. It is just so expensive that I’d rather buy two of the EDP. It isn’t the Parfum version, sure, but to me it probably doesn’t differentiate itself enough to justify its price doubling...

[@LeafFan0016]

Give it some time and it will come down on discounters (it already has a bit)

[@madfrosty5228]

My Friend had gifted me the Tom ford black orchid perfume today ,( he does not like it 🤷🏻 ) this is strange one , it’s mature classy and dark and floral at the same time , it’s not my usual style but I kind of like it . Would I pay the full price for it ? no not me because it’s not that much of my style but I can see why some people would , it’s all about personal preference , I am happy that I finally have Tom ford in my collection now 👍🏻

[@miavonni]

I 100% agree with your thoughts I fell out of love with the etp 3 yrs ago, for some reason I saw this and was compelled to sniff WHOA! it is different I mean its different enough for me to stand alone LOVE IT!!!

[@josezerpa8177]

My lady neighbor was wearing it yesterday as she was walking out her dogs, she said it was a sample she got from Sephora.I found the scent very rich and deep, and overall very elegant. You can tell this is not your average designer perfume. It's not very seductive though, it's more like for special events or galas.

[@Perfumorista]

Worlds cannot descbribe the amount of hype I am with this fragrance.

[@talaj]

Way more superior than the EDP in my opinion. More versatile too. Also better performance than the EDP. Definitely my favourite purchase of 2020

[@nicholasanselment1431]

Black orchid is my favorite fragrance the Parfum was great but not worth the money to me because I like the edp more, they really hooked me in with the “stronger” plum accord but I could hardly smell the plum and I found it laying flatter on my skin then the edp.

[@coreymaxwell1988]

Love the way this one smells!👍🏽

[@johncarloburton5611]

A must have,IMO. Great review Ash !!!

[@UnknownChap]

My favourite release of the year so far 👑

[@SgtG3]

Great review Ash. Keep up the awesome reviews 👍🏼

[@sandromateush9650]

Sooo what we gonna do with Noir Extreme packaging? 😌

[@jingledubz3989]

Awesome video as usual Ash! Love Black Orchid, so it looks as though I need this one. Be well!

[@Hoopla10]

I love Tom Ford's fragrances, this is no exception but I absolutely hate his pricing. I was glad Beau de Jour got shifted from his private line and into the designer line. But still most of his frags need to drop by $40+. They'd still remain in the top-ish range of pricing but I wouldn't feel a tad ripped off.

[@tfromthasix1956]

Yeah as much as I hate the pricing I love most of the fragrances, which is exactly why they can get away with said prices 😩 because we'll buy anyway

[@Hoopla10]

@@tfromthasix1956 LOL yeah that's so true. They need to bring back Italian Cypress and put that into their designer line. It would sell a ton.

[@Cvzar07]

I actually like the pricing because it keeps it from becoming something every basic b** wears lol

[@alovization]

Thank u, you’re a the only one who says they like this one better! I agree

[@nycupperes]

I sampled both today and gold was much better for men.

[@adduintense]

I’m definitely going to get the one in Gold bottle for my husband ❤ thank you for this review

[@youcrazyjesues]

i loveee Black Orchid. I think guys can totally pull it off

[@Hititup2121]

Great video 👍, I enjoy this this fragrance too and I love the gold bottle

[@bkorodi1797]

You get the powderiness from the black orchid, but orchid doesn't have a smell and it's a fantasy note . :D

[@fictionalrealityartsllc6112]

I love this one out of all of the black orchids . However I think it triggered a migraine for me . I will try it again if it happens again sad but won't buy a bottle .

[@cooperbon5771]

Spicebomb extreme or Black Orchid parfum? Trying to decide on a new fall winter fragrance.

[@michaelbullock8011]

Great review and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try it and have a blessed day

[@todye4]

For me it's vastly different. It maybe easier to wear but the performance is underwhelming - it's too light for a parfum...It wears different..The EDP projects way more and last longer - which is weird because the Parfum should be more potent. If Tom is asking me for more money for the gold I'm not looking for subtle.

[@goldenjaguar___]

can i wear black orchid during warm weathers? because my country is mostly hot. do you think the black orchid’s power & longevity could withstand the heat?

[@janetmaseil9609]

Spectacular buying for my husband 😍

[@MrTellboy]

Winter cold weather which is better out of black orchid parfum , jazz club or spicebomb extreme?

[@mikeb2546]

In Alaska you need a half bottle a day for someone to actually smell this on you.

[@sherkhanftw7579]

How about black orchid edp

[@moonpluto]

Its great. Nice balance of notes but too round and smooth. Aims to be appealing in a way the original wasn't. Agree. It is easier to wear for a man than the EDP but has much less edge.

[@LordDavidYoung]

Just got a decant of this in, so far I really like it. Great video as always brother!

[@mrbigglesworth5391]

just purchased...thank you!

[@michelleurizar9672]

I’m not sure why this reminded me of Allure by Chanel. A bit . I don’t like black orchid EDP buy I got a sample of this one and I loved it.

[@richardchapital33]

Been waiting for your perspective

[@HostileAngel]

What makes a perfume better suited to warm weather vs cold weather?

[@jdmb03]

I wear EDP year round, day and night, 2-3 sprays.

[@MaDFroG88]

Black Friday discounts are coming soon, i think I should give it a try 🤔

[@OgeeThegodfather]

It’s the truth I had a chick on the register in winn Dixie going crazy 😂she said I don’t wanna seem like a creep but I can’t hold it in you smell amazing my goodness 🤣

[@MaDFroG88]

@Ogee JOSEPH I got a 50 ml bottle for 100 euro 💶, let's see next month when I start using it 😀.

[@OgeeThegodfather]

@@MaDFroG88 😂😂🤞🏾🤞🏾👌🏿

[@jiylees]

Great review! I came to YT to find out what the difference was between the black and gold bottles. I found a sample of this yesterday when I was clearing out a drawer and skooshed some on. I must admit, at first I wasn’t too keen and scored it around 5/10. Around an hour later I changed my score to 7/10 and by the end of the day it was a firm 9.5/10 (nothing gets 10 😂). Then this morning I got a whiff of it when walking past the washing basket and to my shame I found myself pulling my top out of it and putting it back on today! (Don’t worry, I hadn’t planned on leaving the house and was just doing housework today). I am addicted to this scent! I went online to order some and found there were 2 kinds but luckily my sample was still inside the sample card which was gold so I decided to pop on here to find out what the difference was. Great review and I think I can safely leave the black bottle and go for gold! 🤩

[@theapg97]

Is this an unisex fragrance or for women?

[@Raafxt]

Unisex.

[@ireneodrzywolski640]

I love it wearing it right now. Its beautiful

[@tokiokun4321]

Im from singapore, its humid and hot all year round. I rock it around 5 days a week to work (im in the funeral industry). I tried 3 sprays, wasnt enough. So i go 5 sprays, 1 on each side of the neck, 1 behind each ear, and 1 on my ponytail. Its got great projection the first couple hours, afterwards it settles down. I catch whiffs of it throughout the day (which is perfect because i love being able to smell what ive got on) The key to rocking this perfume (imo) is to look at is as an accessory you'd wear with a suit. (Eg. Tie, pocket square, dress watch, oxfords). If your day's outfit is able to comprise of any of this, then this frag would go well. (Eg. If you're wearing a polo tee, chinos, black leather shoes, this frag would suit well)

[@andyfobes4402]

Hey! Can you tell me where I can shop for the Dior Privee collection? Primarily the Christian Dior Feve delicieuse perfume???

[@michaelmcdonald9847]

Dior’s website or in person in Dior boutiques or certain department stores. But the only official place you can buy it online is Dior.com

Is this as “feminine” as the EDP?

[@ireneodrzywolski640]

I would say its unisex for sure

[@A12Diary]

In Saudi we can wear Suavage for 11 months

[@sanjivsir1919]

which cologne is famous in saudi bro

[@A12Diary]

Sanjiv Sir Suavage is famous for sure but the list of popular colognes is long. You would smell different colognes throughout the day. You might find this weird but many guys wear female perfumes which I dislike but I understand why. Saudi females prefer to smell unisex or female perfumes on guys. So the trend was formed by the ladies 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@sanjivsir1919]

brother I heard saudi people wear heavy attar

[@A12Diary]

Review of Pasha de Cartier parfum in the works?

[@blkjohnnybravo3506]

I have mixed feelings on this one

[@feelinggrape]

Funny, I absolutely hate that scent (the EDP). As in I am feeling sick when I smell it. This whole perfume thing is highly subjective, sometimes I forget about it, but am reminded when people talk positively about black orchid.

[@ChildofGodforevr]

I love the original black orchid,, the new edp is nasty and not at all like my older bottle of edp. I bought it at Max Aroma. The edp smells terrible at first spray, but after a few mins it gets better. But nowhere near as nice as the edt. And no it does not last better. It doesn’t feel like a edp. This is nothing like the original. I regret buying it.

[@stevefriedman7915]

Who cares!

[@Q_N-]

Been watching several reviewers about this scent. Honestly it sounds like it’s great, but jeez that bottle is cheesy AF... thanks for the input Ash!

[@sjnscale]

It's gold, but still simple and quite elegant. I don't find it cheesy at all. To me it's a little flat 'cause of the single colour.

[@Q_N-]

sjnscale To each their own. The complete gold style just reminds me of monotone boring designs. Maybe if this was the 80’s or 90’s when you’re trying to flaunt gold like Mr. T, I’d get it lol. Too bad this style is far from elegant in this day and age.

[@jacobbridges9075]

Nah the bottle looks nice and clean

[@jonathanserrano1471]

Agreed. The edp bottle looks way better. (The edp fragrance is in my top 3 favorites)

[@Q_N-]

Jonathan Serrano Same, I’ve already heard so far that the scent is practically the same. So chances are im sticking to the EDP. Going to get a sample of it before I make a final decision 👍

Where

[@ToTheWind]

I tried this today. It's slightly stronger and deeper but I think this is just a cash in. Maybe if you don't have the EDP it's okay but I'd just get that. It's better and WAY cheaper. In addition, the bottle is (IMO) just bling garbage. Tacky and grotesque. It's probably what Tom Ford customers define as 'luxury'.

[@michaelmcdonald9847]

No longer a TF fan. He just discontinued Tobacco Oud, Tobacco Oud Intense, Plum Japonais, and Patchouli Absolu, amongst many others

[@navy4735]

WOW, really. sad.

[@Glad2BGolden]

I was very disappointed that he discontinued Orchid Soleil. However too be honest they never really discontinue a scent. It gets tweaked, repackaged and renamed.

brother why would you want use this parfum .. its straight up labeled for women not even unisex .. what .. are we gonna end up using a female perfumes now ?

A label is just a label. There are “unisex” fragrances that smell very masculine. Carlisle for example. Don’t box yourself in within the marketing schemes.
