What does Oud Tabac smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it is chosen mostly for evenings and nights out. Most voters read it as masculine, though it wears as unisex.

It opens with saffron, ginger and coriander for a spicy edge, softened by heliotrope. In the heart, pipe tobacco, oud and frankincense build a smoky, resinous body, and Bourbon vanilla and musk sweeten the base. The result is a woody oriental with a gourmand touch. Lattafa Raghba and Andrée Putman Tan d'Epices have a close profile.
