Colonia Ebano with plumb and tobaco instead of ebony wood.
This is basicaly a very smart move from the great master parfumeur Francois Demachy.

Which through the skeleton of this Ebano, launched 4 years later, the much praised Dior Tobacolor.
In essence, the perfumes are the same, with a few minor differences:

Tobacolor is centered more on an amber vanilla and a plum-tobacco accord.
While Ebano, on the ebony wood. Both have in common the amber skeleton, labdanum and especially honey, which is the fundamental central element in both perfumes.

Both perfumes take on sticky-resinous undertones, due to the presence of resins and bee honey. However, tobacolor is slightly smokier.
Overall, Demachy has released some masterpieces that deserve their value.
Price-quality ratio - excellent
Generous longevity and beautiful sillage.
I recommend both, especially for a pertinent test!

One of my favourite perfumes of all time!
Wow what a fragrance - opens with sweet, plum, rum and dries slowly down to more smoky tobacco.
Never becomes harsh smoky always maintains a slight sweetness and booziness. So seductive.
Projects like crazy and lasts forever. Will leave a scent trail everywhere you go.
One of my favourite fragrances.

Sweet tobacco
This has been one of the fragrances I've loved lately, the most beautiful tobacco ever.
A surprising trail around the paradox of a cold hookah. I wrapped the smokiness of tobacco with sweet, fruity and warm, joyful notes. A contrasting fragrance, a hot and cold blend that combines the embers of a hookah with fresh and fruity plum and peach. Very sweet and syrupy, like macerated fruit drizzled with honey and surrounded by hot holiday spices and every aspect of pipe tobacco, hay, ash, shisha, herbs and smoke.

Umeshu along with tobacco
Smell likes Sweet plum marinated for a years and it's turn out to be Umeshu.
Fall in love for first time both on the paper and on my skin.
If you prefer sweet perfume this is the one your should looking for or even try to sniff it.

You can imagine the strong Umesu with someone squeez tobacco and that tobacco oil mix alongside with it. i think tobacco and smoky note balance sweet note not too strong .

Sweet Scent 8/10
Longetivity 10/10 (insanely beast mode only 2 spray on my skin 10 hours+ on my cloth i think for a days)
Silage 9.5/10

Mostly MCD perfume kind of powdery and i disappointed but this one stand out for me most.

Warm rich autumn colours + a play of light and darkness.
Usually I am not too much attracted towards Dior in general, but today I was trying some perfumes and this one was one of the better things I have tested today.

Well, the opening is full of tobacco and more masculine to me. Then it becomes sweeter with more honey to me. Then it has a fruity phase very plummy and spices, it remembers me a little like Feminity du bois but with tobacco, the tobacco note is the continous note to me in the whole story. Then it is more a boozy peach, it is more and more feminine. I usually dislikes fruity perfumes, except plum and peach, so this is very much in my allay. As I finish writing this long review, now it is more true unisex, mor a soft green tobacco with some sweet spices.

I must say it is not my favourite tobacco perfume ( I think I like Diptyque Volutes more and even Tobacco Vanille), but it is very beatiful and I am addicted to smelling my wrist. The performance is very good, although I am someone who wears Francesca Bianchi and I like stronger niche perfumes, the other women with me who smelled hate this one for being too much strong xD so I am not the most reliable reviewer here... But one of the qualities I like more about Tobacolor is that it is potent but soft at the same time, without being too much. Everything is in harmony here, like I read in another review.

It has a touch of dirtiness from the smokey notes but for is more like burned honey.

The texture is very silky and ethereal to me.

When I spried a perfume I always see colours and imagine textures. The colours here are brown gold and very warm and rich autumnal colours but with a translucent property and a game of darkness and light, I like this contrast.

It is a perfume for people who likes dark, oriental, sweet and boozy strong perfumes and you have to like tobacco as a note, of course.

All things into account I feel that this perfume should be in the more comercial line and not the expensive and niche one. It is beautiful but it lacks a little in charisma like if it was trying to attract the Poison fans with very comercial and pleasant notes without being vanilla gourmand, so this should be the standard quality in designer perfumery like once used to be and not the boring watery mess. It is one of the most interesting Dior offerings to me, but also the usual now a days Dior consumer is not going to like this.

Tobacolor opens with peach, plum, tobacco and a heavy dose of honey. Syrupy sweet, smoky, ambery, warm, spicy. Great performance on my skin.

Sweet woody with a nice touch of tobacco (very light). It reminds me of Baccarat Rouge 540 too (also stated below), but more dried fruits

One of the best Tobacco scents out there. If you really want to take Tobacco scents seriously, then you should try this.

Smell of realistic fruity pipe tobacco (peach). Good but not for me. Non-consensual smell

In the air, this shares a striking resemblance to br 540, just not as sickeningly sweet. too fem for me. 6/10. Tobacco note is too subtle.

The fruity touches are definitely there, but I won't lie, I did not pick up the plum, and that's what I was looking forward to the most.

Sweet, ambery, potent and sensual. It's not unique, but the transition from its sweet side to tobacco is peculiar.

I am obsessed with this perfume, the sweetness of honey and plums with the smoky yet smooth tobacco notes. I’m obsessed with this!

Indiscernible fruits dipped in a honey far from photorealistic, yet mouthwatering! Barely any smokiness.

It reminds me a lot of Houbigant Tabac Nomade. Strong note of sweet tobacco with spices. Good longevity, but it might be too sweet.

Tobacolor real or fake ?
The CD monogram at the top of the atomizer is highly suspicious.It should look like this : (Authentic bottle buy at Dior's).
