What does Fumerie turque smell like?

Tobacco leads, honey softens and sweetens it, and rose stays in the background. The scent moves as a single piece from start to finish, with spicy, resinous and woody accords building a warm, leathery base.

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it is chosen more for evenings and nights out. More voters read it as masculine, though as a unisex scent it suits either gender. Mémoire Archives Candle Lit Evening and Boucheron Oud de Carthage have a close profile.
