What does Chypre Tabac Imperiale smell like?
Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. It reads unisex, and although it has been discontinued, it leaves a trail that stays on the skin for a long time.
Hatkora lemon, petitgrain and prune give a fresh opening with a touch of fruit sweetness. Tobacco absolute, patchouli, vetiver and oud then take over, while leather, oakmoss, labdanum and sandalwood build an earthy, resinous base. Rose and jasmine soften the dark texture here and there.
