What does Tabac Nomade smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with evenings and nights out leading the occasions. Voters mostly read it as masculine and classic, and it is rarely suggested for summer days.

It opens with spices, rose and bergamot, then moves to tonka bean, tobacco and saffron blossom, settling on leather and vanilla. A sweet, gourmand, creamy base carries smoky, leathery and woody shades. Moresque Sandal Granada and Niche 4 All Honey Tobacco have a close profile.
