^I know, right ? however I do love the feeling of the campaign and I love the bottle design, it definitely fits in with the design of his other fragrances, which I love.

The bottle is really cool and very effective but the picture on itself doesn't work for me. I feel like I've already seen this kind of close-up of his face a million times before.

This October, the designer will launch his first signature men’s fragrance since 2009, Tom Ford Noir, and it could produce global retail sales of $15 million in its first year. It will retail for $90 for a 1.7-oz. eau de parfum and $125 for a 3.4-oz. edp. That launch will be preceded in September by the introduction of a Private Blend quartet of scents under the Jardin Noir banner of four midnight-blooming scents — Narcissus, Hyacinth, Rose and Lily. Industry sources estimate that the four Jardin Noir fragrances could generate a combined $17 million at retail globally in their first year on counter.

I just hope this men's release has the personality of his women's and Private Blend releases, and not the "man in a sharp suit" vibe of his first couple of men's frags.
