Not what I'd hoped for. Nowhere near Black Orchid
Nowhere near similar to Black Orchid. If you came for Black Orchid and bought this thinking it an inspired related scent, don't bother. This is more like potpourri.
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend to a friend.

Not my favorite
I was disappointed with this one. At first the fragrance seems to be more on a man side and to sweet and strong. Spray it and the fragrance is gone. No one can smell it and smell doesn't linger on the skin. It fells like good cheep perfume and a dope for original.
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend to a friend.

I use it every day because I like the scent itself but I reapply it when possible. I do not think I will return to it because it simply does not hold.
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend to a friend.

Complex, sensual
This was my first Tom Ford perfume, I was a bit nervous it would be overpowering and garrish. However, the first minute was a bit sharp and I panicked a bit, but within a few minutes it was more complex and interesting, soft nuances and a bit bold at the same time. This is the first perfume I have owned that went through very distinct phases, and certain notes really shined. The scent stays fairly close to the skin, I don't feel like it would leave a trail clinging after me, but just enough for other people to get a whiff of something pleasant. I got some caramel notes as well, but no sickenly sweet notes. This wasn't a dark scent, but it flirts with being one. This was a blind buy, and I am happy with it. I think this would be a great date night scent in the cooler months. I haven't worn it in the heat, I think it might be too much in the wrong way in the heat. I would definitely try another Tom Ford scent and see why people like this brand.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

It's kind of hard to describe. It's floral and slightly spicy and powdery all at once. Which is kind of hard to do. But I like it. And my Boyfriend loves it on me. I feel as if it doesn't last very long though. Its not strong at all.
