What People Say

Armaf Tag-Him

One EDT reviewer enjoys the citrus opening with noticeable ginger and mint.

Another owner particularly enjoys the drydown.

One buyer finds the opening sharp and the wear too short on their skin.

Tom Ford Black Orchid

One wearer loves how the EDP settles into a rich, earthy-sweet drydown.

Another owner enjoys the EDP as an everyday fragrance, including for work.

One wearer finds the EDP opening harsh and the scent too heavy, despite enjoying its drydown.

Another tester gets an unwanted soapy, cheese-like impression from the EDP opening.

The Verdict

Try Tag-Him if you want citrus and cooling herbs with woods: one reviewer enjoys the ginger and mint, while another buyer finds the opening sharp and the wear short. Try Black Orchid EDP for an earthy, sweet dark floral; one wearer loves the drydown but finds the opening unpleasant. Tag-Him is not a Black Orchid interpretation.
