Tobacco leaf and leather form the backbone, cinnamon adds a spicy warmth, and vetiver brings a green, earthy side. Musk softens the mix, while the floral accord stays in the background. The overall impression is woody, smoky and dry.
Voters find its longevity good and its sillage moderate, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are tentative. It suits men and women alike. Hermès Bel Ami Vétiver and Miguel Matos Tabacco Smeraldo have a close profile.
