What does French Tobacco smell like?

It opens fresh and lively, with citrus and green apple in front. In the heart, orange blossom, French tobacco, ginger and cinnamon add a sweet, spicy side, while iris, lemon grass, gaiac wood and frankincense settle the scent onto a green, woody base. Aquatic and floral touches soften the spice.

Longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters recommend it for summer and spring, and it leans towards daily wear, the office and leisure. It reads more masculine, though it is unisex.
