What does Tabac / Tobacco, Oud & Vanilla smell like?
Tobacco leads at the start, then damask rose and Bourbon vanilla soften it toward the heart, adding a creamy sweetness. In the base, Burmese oud, ambergris and cedar settle into a woody, resinous, smoky foundation.
Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with night out and evening the leading occasions. It reads mostly masculine, with a classic feel. Liis Bo and Carolina Herrera Gold Incense have a close profile.
