A legend for a new day. This amber woody fragrance shines with two exclusive creations in modern perfumery: an incandescent black lacquer accord that captures a smoky, dimensional opulence, and a Makassar ebony wood note that evokes aspects of leather and birch. Beneath the glossy surface blooms the irrepressible mystery of a dark peony accord.

The exclusive black lacquer accord is inspired by the ancient art of lacquering prized woods. This smooth, warm, smoky note illuminates the nuanced tonalities of black. Bright fir needles offer a vibrant clarity to the black lacquer accord, exuding a woody mindfulness. Its smooth darkness is further amplified by the scent of warm, silky styrax. A vinyl accord is bolstered by black pepper and black rum extract, reflecting luminous resins and radiant spices.

The fragrance's smoldering woody vitality is rooted in a Makassar ebony wood note—a creation unique to TOM FORD. The note is inspired by the architectural beauty of Makassar wood, an intrinsic TOM FORD design code, and is obtained through headspace technology, which takes an olfactive "portrait" of the Makassar ebony wood without having to harvest the tree. This technology allows the complex note to be recreated by the perfumer; unobtrusively capturing the scent of this precious tree grown in one of the oldest rainforests on earth. The exclusive signature conjures simmering vetiver and cedarwood. An apricot-like fruitiness shines light on the Makassar's mysterious forest, spotlighting its striking brilliance.

The velvety dark peony accord shimmers with green and floral facets flecked in an elemi resin that highlights spice and incense undertones. The finish of Black Lacquer is encased in the multi-faceted amber essence of olibanum. The aromatic resin traditionally used to create incense glows with potent facets of spice and earthy woods, a flash of citrus and smoky balsamic warmth.
