Bitter Peach, composed by Tom Ford in 2020, opens on heliotrope, cardamom and grapefruit. Rum, cognac and jasmine share the heart; sweet vanilla, velvety sandalwood and earthy vetiver in the base.
Heliotrope, creamy and peppery, sits alongside cardamom, spicy and fresh, and grapefruit, tonic and tangy: the top blends a warm gourmand quality with a dual register of spice and citrus freshness.
Jasmine, wild and sweet, rum with hints of cinnamon and burnished leather, and cognac, vanilla-like and orangey, share the heart; jasmine and cognac converge on this same floral facet.
Sandalwood, creamy and animalic, and vanilla, sweet and sensual, dominate the base alongside vetiver, earthy and smoky: the sensual warmth of sandalwood echoes that of vanilla, while vetiver introduces a more vegetal note.
