About

Description

A classic chypre construction, fairly dry and woody. The galbanum bestows a dash of greenness, the rose a hint of gentleness, and the tonka bean a touch of warmth.

At a glance

A chypre inspired by the Arabian peninsula

History

A woody chypre evoking the Middle East, Arabian Wood is part of Tom Ford’s luxurious Private Blend collection. The designer wanted a fragrance that would be ‘like the extraordinary confluence of the Middle East’s past and present aromatic wonders’. For him or her. At selected points of sale.

Range

Eau de Parfum 1.7 and 8.5 oz.

Bottle

A sleek, dark bottle adorned with a golden label. It calls to mind a playing piece on a chess board.
