TOM FORD Black Lacquer: A masterpiece of modern perfumery
Looking to the ancient craft of lacquering prized woods, Black Lacquer redefines amber woody fragrances with a striking blend of richness and depth. The core of this scent, inspired by 20th-century lacquered furniture, rests on two bespoke ingredients: black lacquer accord, which has a smoky aroma, and Macassar ebony wood, which adds bold, woody, warm notes that are captured ethically using so-called headspace technology that extracts scents while preserving trees.
Hong Kong actor Carlos Chan and footballer Matt Orr have immersed themselves in this olfactory story. Chan, who is known for his charismatic presence, finds that this perfume resonates with the depth of his persona and refined strength. On the contrary, with his understated, modern style, Orr embodies the brightness and clarity of fir needle notes that refresh the fragrance’s smoky core.
To add, Sabrina Cheung exudes the bold confidence of TOM FORD Black Lacquer. Her vibrant, fearless persona mirrors the fragrance’s smoky depth and sophisticated allure, perfecting her audacious style. On the contrary, Shiga Lin’s refined, graceful charm embodies the understated elegance of the scent, as her personality adds a soft, floral lift of dark peony accord and the warmth of olibanum, which resonates with her timeless sophistication.
This perfume is available in 30ml, 50ml and 250ml, encapsulating modern elegance and sophistication.
