Key Notes of Tom Ford Rose Prick

Top Notes

Tom Ford Rose Prick has two top notes: Turmeric and Sichuan Pepper. The latter’s peppery note extraction is from Zanthoxylum plant berries and is a spicy, herbal, and aromatic scent. Besides, it also comes with a citrus touch. The best part is that the fragrances are unisex and acceptable to both men and women.

On the other hand, turmeric – also referred to as Curcuma or Indian Yellow Root – has a spicy, earthly, warm note. Like its counterpart, Sichuan Park, turmeric is also unisex and used in women’s and men’s fragrances. Again, turmeric is slightly aromatic and light. It also carries a semi-sweet aroma that blends well with cinnamon, clary sage, orange, and ginger.

Middle Notes

Tom Ford Rose Prick’s middle notes comprised three unique scents: May Rose, Turkish Rose, and Bulgarian Rose. The May Rose blends floral and honey notes, giving it an unmatched refinement to most perfumes. It is also exquisite!

On the other hand, Turkish Rose is a sophisticated scent. The rose accord stays fresh and floral at all times and carries powdered intimations of black pepper. That gives it a subtle and sensual warmth perfume.

The Bulgarian Rose has a combination of cloves, green leaves, raspberry hints, cinnamon, and honey scents. Its unique fragrance has won the hearts of many and is believed to be efficient for aromatherapy treatment.

Base Notes

Tom Ford Rose Prick’s primary notes are two, including Tonka bean and Patchouli. The Tonka bean is a spice extracted from Dipteryx Odrata – a native tree that grows in South and Central America. It contains 90% coumarin – a Vitamin K brand name.

On the other hand, Patchouli is grouped among mosses and woods. The perfume is extracted from an exotic bushy plant in India and comes with a sweet, woody edge, earthly, and dark scent. The odour is prevalent among many blends.

My Thoughts

Tom Ford Rose Prick has a beautiful scent that I am enjoying very much. The scent lasts all day on me. Rose Prick starts off with a burst of turmeric that gives a prickly sensation to the nose. However, after a few minutes the turmeric dies down and sweet jammy creamy rose petals take over. The rose is supported by hints of naturalness from the patchouli and spiciness from the pepper. I find it an interesting take on rose. And that too with hints of turmeric.

Overall, it is both sweet and earthy at the same time. Not overly sweet but well-done. The dry down is excellent. The way Rose tones down to make space for the clear and noticeable earthy tones in this fragrance is beautiful.

• Base Notes are Suede, Musk, Tonka Bean, Oud.

Tom Ford Tubereuse Nue is housed in a matte ivory version of the Private Blend bottle. It is finished with a glossed, barely-pink plaque, and gilded accents. The bottle has a sleek, architectural look of a chess piece.

My Thoughts

Tom Ford Tubereuse Nue is a strong scent. On the first spray, I could smell something attractive as well as something repelling at the same time. The suede is, I must say, very strong and overpowers the beauty of tuberose and jasmine. As I waited for 5-10 minutes, it transformed into a lovely, sweet, soft floral scent. It is truly a very dense, complex, and interesting fragrance. From the burnt tire mixed with roses kind of the first sniff to the end result of tuberose that is soft, it passes many transformations. I have mixed thoughts about this scent. I know it may be just me and my skin's chemistry. You can always check out a sample before getting a full-size bottle.

The perfume is a mix of white flowers, coriander, peony and bergamot as top notes, Rose, Jasmine and Ambrette as middle notes, Patchouli, Incense and Woody notes as the base. This fragrance is described as “With its sensuous heart of patchouli, Tom Ford White Patchouli is surrounded by sleek wood notes with luxurious elegant white flowers. The Modern Fragrance with Retro-Classic Influence is a Sophisticated Interpretation of Bohemian Chic.”

First of all the packaging of this fragrance, as you can see in the pictures, is in a very beautiful heavy white glass bottle with a golden plate having the brand name engraved on it. There is also a golden string around the top which looks very elegant on white. This fragrance is a very classic everyday fragrance that can be an approachable option for people who want a patchouli fragrance but are not looking for candy. I can’t think of many other fragrances that provide this option.

It is a beautifully balanced between tradition and modernity. It is a strong floral in a nice way and can be referenced as Fresh, Chic, Subtle, Sensuous, Captivating and Exotic. The longevity of this fragrance on my skin is over 7 hours which is pretty good. It is perfect for all weathers. Again, the combination of the patchouli with white flowers is in a way that does smell elegant and sophisticated and not very girly. It is classified as a women's fragrance but after using this I think it should be classified as unisex.

This EDP retails for CAD $160 excl taxes for 50ml which I bought and the other option is 100ml for CAD $224 excl taxes. It is available at Sephora, The Hudon's Bay, Holt Renfrew and other major retailers.
