What does Tabac Sahara smell like?

Voters rate both longevity and sillage as good. Most pick winter and fall, with evenings and nights out leading and leisure wear close behind. Masculine edges ahead of feminine in the votes, but both have real support, so it reads as open to either.

The core is tobacco, raspberry and ambergris. Fruity and sweet accords soften the spicy, woody side of the tobacco, while smoky and leathery touches sit on an oriental warmth. Louis Vuitton Ombre Nomade and Reef Niche 6 have a close profile.
