Tom Ford for Men
by Tom Ford
Tom Ford for Men is a refined, classic masculine fragrance that opens with a vibrant burst of citrus, ginger, and mandarin orange, creating a fresh and zesty headline. This evolves into a warm, herbal backbone with notes of tobacco, pepper, and earthy patchouli, balanced by cedar and vetiver, leading to a soft, musky-amber dry down. The scent is clean, sophisticated, and quietly confident, with a focus on intimacy rather than projection — it stays close to the skin, making it ideal for formal settings, office wear, or casual days when subtlety matters. Despite its shyness in sillage and moderate longevity, many find it genuinely elegant and versatile, especially for mature men seeking a timeless, unpretentious aroma that speaks louder than volume.
