When you’re on the hunt for your new favorite perfume, it makes sense to invest in a brand you trust. If you’re looking for a new fragrance obsession, buying one of the best Tom Ford perfumes for women is a purchase you won’t regret making. Of all the luxury brands creating scents, Tom Ford’s fragrance line is one of the best. They’re universally long-lasting, unique, and housed in stunning bottles that look gorgeous on your vanity.

My love affair with Tom Ford fragrances began on the basis that their packaging came embossed with “TF”–obviously standing for “Tom Ford,” but I like to pretend they’re especially curated for me, since we share the same initials. But it was game over once I got a whiff of my first fragrance. Their scents are unlike so many on the market. They combine quality ingredients with surprising scent notes and truly unique storytelling. Whether you’re looking for a new vanilla perfume or a summer scent to wear on vacation, this brand has it all. Here, shop the 10 best Tom Ford perfumes for women that will kickstart a life-long obsession.

Soleil de Feu Eau de Parfum

With a blend of florals, woodsy notes, and incense, this complex perfume is a fan-favorite amongst perfume lovers. It’s a sensual fragrance that’s perfect for date nights and summer evenings. “If you like to change up your fragrance according to the season, consider this the perfect summer scent. It’s sexy like a silk camisole–the scent clings close to the skin and is a luxury for only those you want to enjoy it,” says Margaux Anbouba, ELLE’s Beauty Editor.

Notes: Tuberose, sandalwood, benzoin

Nordstrom rating: 5/5 stars

A Nordstrom reviewer says: “I haven’t found a Tom Ford fragrance that I dislike yet. Another one for my growing collection. Imagine this smelling like a romantic evening on the beach!”

Tuscan Leather Eau de Parfum

This leathery, spicy perfume is a must-have if you prefer your fragrances free of sweetness or florals. To balance out those deeper masculine notes, saffron adds a brightness that keeps it from becoming too intense.

Notes: Leather, saffron, black suede

Nordstrom rating: 5/5 stars

A Nordstrom reviewer says: "No other fragrance compares. I cannot get enough of this."

Black Orchid Eau De Toilette

Considered one of Tom Ford’s best perfumes, Black Orchid is a classic. It has a floral fruitiness that’s never too sweet, thanks to hints of patchouli that keep it grounded. “On the days when I’m not feeling super fruity or flirty, Tom Ford Black Orchid sets the right mood. The black packaging is a clear indicator of the olfactory ride this scent takes you on; it’s a deep floral that’s seductive and sultry with an alluring hint of spice that would make any potential suitor swoon. I love to set Black Orchid as my base and then layer sweeter scents on top for the best of both worlds,” says ELLE.com's Beauty E-Commerce Editor Nerisha Penrose.

Notes: Black truffle, black plum, patchouli

Ulta rating: 5/5 stars

An Ulta reviewer says: “It’s an edgy fragrance and I almost didn’t want to write a review so I could keep this gem to myself. Totally worth the money.”

Suede and musk may sound like notes in a deep, overpowering fragrance, but this version is actually very lightweight. Thanks to hints of thyme and rose, the end result is a very fresh, complicated perfume.

Notes: Suede, saffron, musk

Nordstrom rating: 4.9/5 stars

Looking for your new summertime fragrance? This fresh, citrus perfume is ideal for Italian getaways. The combination of lemon and cypress is too good to pass up. “If you favor more masculine-leaning scents, Costa Azzurra has the edge your fragrance collection is missing. Costa Azzurra bubbles with a mingling of land and sea; citrus and florals dance around burst of freshness that feels like a breezy day on a boat cruising the Mediterranean Sea,” says Penrose.

Notes: Cypress, lemon, oak wood
