What does Sweet Smoke (Parfum Extract) smell like?

Cocoa, tonka bean and vanilla form the sweet core, while dried fruits add a fruity density. Tobacco and plant juice cast a smoky, earthy shadow over it. Spicy and woody touches stay in the background, and the overall feel is warm and oriental.

Those who rated it find the longevity strong and the sillage good, though with few votes these figures are only a rough guide. Sweet and heavy, it is easier to wear in cooler weather. Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille (Eau de Parfum) and Teufelsküche Creepy Smoke have a close profile.
