Myrrhe Mystère by Tom Ford
Launch Year: 2023
Perfumer: Rodrigo Flores-Roux
Concentration: Eau de Parfum
Fragrance Profile:
Part of the Tom Ford Private Blend collection and built around a dual-myrrh architecture using both Myrrh Essence and Myrrh Resinoid Orpur — two distinct expressions of one of perfumery's most ancient and revered raw materials. The opening is warm, resinous and immediately rich, with Absinthe Essence adding a quietly bitter, herbal edge that keeps the composition from becoming purely sweet. Jasmine Absolute brings a delicate floral lift to the heart, softening the myrrh without dimming it. Australian Sandalwood, Vanilla and a Black Leather Accord close with a smooth, luminous and quietly sensual base that lingers with a cathedral-like depth and warmth.
Performance:
Good longevity with a warm, intimate projection. The myrrh-sandalwood-vanilla accord carries quietly but persistently for hours, deepening and softening as it develops. A fragrance that rewards close wear rather than projection.
Ideal For:
Autumn and winter, and meditative or evening occasions. A genuinely unisex oriental resinous for those who love incense and myrrh presented with warmth and modern elegance rather than cold austerity — luminous, grounding and deeply compelling.
