Tom Ford Black Orchid Voile de Fleur is a more floral version of Tom Ford's Black Orchid. Voile de Fleur is a lighter side of Black Orchid. It starts with the white flower notes before moving to sweet fruit in the composition and then down into the dark, earthy black notes. If you think that Black Orchid was over the top, this lighter version may be for you with its focus on the white flowers.
Created by David Apel, it has notes of black truffle, ylang ylang, bergamot, blackcurrant, honeysuckle, gardenia, spicy lily, black orchid, black plum, black pepper, lotus wood, succulent fruit, warm milk, cinnamon, vanilla tears, patchouli, balsam and sandalwood.
From Perfume Smellin things - "Only a tiny bit less robust than the sinfully opulent original Black Orchid, Voile de Fleur replaces the pungently earthy accord of black truffles with a leathery undertone, thus transforming from some (most probably evil) mythical creature of the night into somebody slightly less outlandish and more “urban”…a femme fatale. Compared to the witchy, black-magical, somehow “pre-historic” Eau de Parfum version, the Eau de Toilette is fairly modern. I would place it in the film-noir times of 1940s."
