Arabs and Muslims may have perfected the art of perfume making (more on this later), but this time Tom Ford is giving them something created in their very own lab. A new fragrance will only be available in the Middle East. I am certain this is one product geared toward the affluent communities in the Gulf region.
Tom Ford has gone on an adventure in the near East with his new frankincense-based scent called Sahara Noir, using the history and culture of the region to build an impressive new scent specially designed for the Middle East. Sahara Noir is packaged in a gold-coloured version of the Tom Ford signature fragrance bottle, made of metallised glass and finished with a golden name plaque. The flacon is packaged in a gold, fluted outer carton. The perfume will come in a 50 ml size. There is no word yet on its price.
"Middle Eastern culture has an extraordinary appreciation for the luxurious, emotional and memorable qualities of fragrance; perfume is worn there in a way that feels very familiar to me. Sahara Noir is my interpretation of this heritage," said Tom Ford.
This Oriental Floral fragrance for women opens with bitter orange, sweet oasis grasses and Levantine cypress. The heart is composed of frankincense that is offset with cinnamon, Egyptian jamine and Moroccan rose. In sum, most Arabic regions are incorporated in this new scent. Sahara Noir finishes with cedar and vanilla tones. "It is a deep and substantial perfume that caresses the senses," adds Ford. Presented in a gold version of the classic Tom Ford fragrance bottle, the perfume is packaged in a fluted gold box. Prices are not yet available.
