Tobacco Collection

No. Tobacco in perfumery refers to the cured leaf, not smoke — it's naturally sweet, warm and slightly honeyed, closer to pipe tobacco or dried fruit than anything ashy. In this collection it's layered with saffron, tonka, cocoa, amber and patchouli, so the result reads as rich and spiced rather than smoky.

Each fragrance interprets tobacco through the character of a different region. Spanish Tobacco is built on saffron and salted caramel; French Tobacco is softer and more refined; Brazilian, Greek, Mexican, Dominican and Arabian each take the same base material somewhere distinct. They're variations on a theme rather than one scent in nine bottles.

Spanish Tobacco is the most popular and the best introduction — saffron and tonka opening into cocoa, amber and tobacco. If you prefer something less sweet, French Tobacco is the more restrained option. Both come in 100ml.

Yes. Tobacco compositions are worn widely by both men and women in Arabian perfumery, and the sweeter members of this collection — Spanish and Brazilian in particular — lean warm and gourmand rather than masculine.

The Tobacco Collection Set includes nine 20ml bottles, which is the most economical way to explore the full range before committing to a 100ml. It also makes a strong gift.
