What does Signature Leather Tabac smell like?

It opens with Zanzibar black pepper, plum, rosemary, sage and star anise, a sharp, spicy start with a herbal edge. The heart brings Bulgarian rose otto, cumin, Virginia tobacco, birch tar and myrrh, with a smoky, earthy feel leading. In the base, honey, suede, leather, Chinese oud and praliné sweeten the scent while the leathery, resinous structure holds.

Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong, so a light application goes a long way. Most voters pick night outs and evenings, and it also works for leisure. It reads masculine.
