Maurer & Wirtz Tabac Original 100ml EDT Spray
Step back to 1959 with Maurer & Wirtz Tabac Original, a sharp, unmistakably masculine fragrance that has stood the test of time. This EDT spray opens with a crisp blend of peppery spice, green citrus (petitgrain) and Neroli, creating an immediate brightness that signals confidence and presence. As it settles, a refined herbaceous core blends lavender with chamomile and geranium, softened by oak moss to give a lush, masculine depth. The dry-down adds warm, resinous notes—creamy sandalwood, earthy vetiver, and a whisper of musk and ambergris—delivering a lasting, comfortable trail without shouting. Ideal for casual wear, it transitions effortlessly from daytime errands to low-key evenings, leaving a memorable impression that’s both classic and quietly powerful.
