What does Tabac Blond (2021) smell like?

Leather and carnation come forward; clove and labdanum add a spicy warmth, while styrax and Virginia cedar give it a smoky, woody side. Galbanum brings a green edge, and Turkish rose and Comorian ylang-ylang carry a floral, powdery, creamy softness. Haitian vetiver and Indonesian patchouli round out the depth.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it is worn most often for evenings and nights out, though leisure wear is nearly as common. It doesn't settle into a clearly masculine or feminine camp. Caron Rose Ébène de Caron and Trudon Bruma have a close profile.
