A case of misrepresentation
I could of course write something really evil to trample and tear the scent to pieces....
But malice does not suit me and displeasure can also be expressed in a friendly way. And that's why I can't get around this scent
This Tom Ford for Men has been in my collection for a long time, sometimes bought more or less in passing. However, I use it very rarely. And that has also reasons Somehow I'm having a little trouble with the smell. I have been thinking for a long time about what bothers me about the scent and I will put this into words. I didn't get really warm with it and certain expectations were quite disappointed.
When I read through all the fabulous fragrant ingredients that are supposed to be built into it, it gives the impression that Tom Ford for Men is a highly complex fragrance with many facets and twists. That's a pretty big application A bunch of citrus in the prelude, the turn to tart spiciness and wood. And the whole thing best of all still with an opulence and an enormous durability to be expected from Mr. Ford.
You'd think...
But the reality looks unfortunately completely different or better said smells unfortunately different.
The fragrance is anything but highly complex and opulent. It starts out very citric and fresh at first when sprayed on and unfortunately hardly anything changes in the course of time.
There are probably some very subtle spicy and woody notes and, far away, something like a hint of flowers, but all this is unfortunately used so sparingly or, better said, stingy, as if either the ingredients were no longer sufficient or as if the perfumers had lost their desire or courage.
Here quite a lot is promised and only very little is kept.
The name Tom Ford in itself stands for very distinct self-confidence, rich and substantial fragrances and quite high prices.
But in the case of TF for Men, I feel like I'm being led up the garden path The scent is certainly not bad but it is pale, much too discreet, too inconspicuous, lacking in contours and above all much too short-lived.
The few scents pass me by so quickly that he doesn't even get the slightest chance to really unfold. And so after a good 2 hours there is hardly anything left to sniff, on the skin it is completely gone and on the clothes only a bland hint of some scent remains. There is also a lack of corners and edges, something to bump into a little, a fixed point, a little dirt maybe, with which you could give a fragrance an exciting counterpart. That would certainly make the fragrance more exciting.
But this way it is too smooth, too one-dimensional and not enough fragrance overall. One sniffs and waits for something else to happen. But you wait in vain for further development.
With some scents I don't have such a big problem with spraying from time to time. Then the manufacturer is probably already known for not producing the most persistent scents. And they might have been even cheaper. And often citric scents are not the most durable ones either.
At TF for Men, in my opinion, price and performance do not match, you spend a lot and get very little. And I'm very disappointed, because basically the fragrance with its woody-spicy and citrusy direction would be just right for me.
But here I can only wave tiredly, because bland citrus fruits with only hints of woody notes are not enough for me.
I wouldn't know where and when to wear the fragrance if I had to pull out the bottle every time after a short time
That is of course only my personal and subjective perception and opinion. If you see something different in this fragrance and you like it very much, and you also like it with its durability and charisma, I definitely acknowledge that. That is always everything very individual to look at.
I have now taken out the bottle again and see that there isn't much left in it, but I was able to empty it with some effort. I still need the few millilitres here for me Then I can put a hook behind it and am richer by one fragrance experience, one that I do not have to repeat.
But I wish all fans of the TF for Men a lot of fun with him! I enjoy other fragrances :-)
For me, however, a somewhat stale feeling remains that one was made fun of here.
