What does Island Tobacco smell like?

It opens with the freshness of ginger, lime and bergamot alongside the sweetness of passion fruit, guava and coconut. In the heart, pink pepper, frangipani absolute and Jasminum grandiflorum bring a floral, fruity, spicy turn. The base closes with blond tobacco absolute, sandalwood, musk and ambergris, giving a woody, resinous warmth.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick leisure and evening, with daily and business wear close behind. It reads slightly more masculine than feminine, though many voters see it as feminine. Tiziana Terenzi Kuma and Byron Parfums Barba Rossa have a close profile.
