What does Tabac Man (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

The top notes of mandarin orange, bergamot, green leaves and peppermint give it a bright start. In the heart, vetiver and oakmoss lead, while cardamom and patchouli add a spicy edge. In the base, tonka bean and vanilla sweeten it slightly, with the smoky, woody side lingering behind.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters pick fall and spring, and daily wear, business and leisure lead the occasions. It reads as masculine and classic. Parfums de Marly Percival and Penhaligon's No. 33 have a close profile.
