Like its predecessor, Lost Cherry, the beloved summer fruit has been given the “Tom Ford treatment”, so don’t expect Peach Blush à la Strawberry Shortcake.

“Explicitly sweet and dangerously voluptuous, Bitter Peach surges with dark, skin-gripping sensuality,” says the designer. “Like the fullflavoured fruit at its most ripe, the scent is erotic by nature.”
The intoxicating fruit floral opens with pêche de vigne and Sicilian blood orange oil. Spiked with cardamom oil, the impression of explicitly ripe and voluptuous flesh comes to life. A sensual heart reveals itself through the bitterness of heliotrope, fused with davana oil, jasmin sambac absolute and a dash of rum absolute and cognac oil.
Tom Ford Venetian Bergamot, 50ml | $425
The final depth is a sumptuous mélange of sandalwood absolute, benzoin resinoid and cashmeran. With a surge of vanilla, Tonka beans and Indonesian patchouli oil, the scent is addictive and long-lasting.
Tom Ford Bitter Peach debuts in a flacon with an opaque inner lacquering and a tinted translucent outer layer to provide depth and dimension. The hue was inspired by the array of shades at the peach’s luscious centre, with a nod to vintage coloured glass.

Other notable fruits in the collection include Lost Cherry, winner of the 2019 Fragrance Foundation Perfume of the Year award in the Luxury Women’s category. The full-bodied scent blends black and tart cherries with cherry liqueur and bitter almond, making for a sophisticated and warming scent.
Plum Japonais features the iconic ume plum, with a lush and unconventional melange of exotic Asian ingredients, such as cinnamon, saffron, camellia and amber. Venetian bergamot brings the “prince of citrus” from southern Italy to the northern floating city with rich floral scents of gardenia and ylang ylang, warm spices like pink and black peppers, and precious woods like sandalwood and cashmeran.
