Plum Japonais

Plum Japonais by Tom Ford is a masterfully blended, unisex fragrance centered around a rich, dark plum note infused with savory spices, resinous woods, and a hint of sweet incense. It opens with a bold, warm burst of plum and cinnamon, smooth and dense, with a subtle underlying duality that feels both exotic and refined. The heart deepens with earthy oud, evergreen notes, and smoky dryness, creating a complex, layered aroma that evolves with time. On the skin, it settles into a warm, softly smoky base with a hint of sweetness from vanilla and amber, bringing a sense of quiet sophistication. Its approach is not overtly floral or gourmand, but rather a deeply aromatic, almost liquid quality that feels masculine in its strength and elegance, yet universally wearable. The scent lingers with moderate sillage and lasting power, making it ideal for cooler climates and even in spring. It's not for the faint of heart—its strong presence demands space, and visions of smoke, ancient balm, and wooden relic ensure it remains unforgettable.
