Fragrance profile
Tabac Original’s scent unfolds in distinct layers that echo its Aromatic Fougere classification. The opening is clean and uplifting, featuring aldehydic brightness with lavender, neroli, lemon, and bergamot to give a crisp citrus-musky aura. The heart introduces spiced floral and woody elements—carnation, rose, jasmine, sandalwood, pine needles, and orris root—creating a classic, masculine bouquet. The base settles into a warm, tobacco-forward foundation enriched by musk, oakmoss, amber, tonka bean, and vanilla, giving the fragrance depth, longevity, and a comforting tobacco-inflected finish. Overall, Tabac Original is warm, refined, and enduring, with smoky-sweet facets that remain present after you rinse.
