What does Tabacco d'Autore smell like?

It opens with bergamot, artemisia, sweet vernal grass and labdanum, then tobacco and leather take over in the heart. The base of gaiac wood, amber, Virginia cedar, patchouli, musk and cashmeran settles it onto a sweet, resinous, earthy ground, with spice and smoke running quietly underneath.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring and winter, and it leans towards evenings and leisure time. Most voters read it as masculine, though it works as unisex. Astrophil & Stella A Night at the Opera and Cerruti 1881 Signature have a close profile.
