By the editors · 2 min readThe Jardin Noir collection is Tom Ford's examination of night flowers, and Jonquille de Nuit is among the most compositionally focused entries in the Private Blend. Narcissus is the subject — a note with an unusually difficult character: simultaneously cold, earthy, slightly medicinal, and honey-green, with a quality that resists easy description. Violet leaf opens with cool green-metallic freshness that prepares the nose for what follows. Mimosa in both opening and base provides powdery-warm support. Orris and iris anchor the dry-down in a classic iris-powder register, amber adding warmth. A restrained, botanically honest portrait of a difficult flower — exactly the kind of fragrance the Private Blend line exists to deliver.
