Tabac Nomade
House of Houbigant, Tabac Nomade. WOW. Amazing.

Not just tabac nomade, but almost all of Houbigant's perfumes are amazing, they are not ''just'' fragrances. These fragrances take you away, far away to someplace magical.

Tabac Nomade is an wonderful fall and winter fragrance. It has some warm notes which makes it possible to use on dates. The opening of the fragrance is warm, sweet and a little bit smokey in my opinion. Which I have no idea where the smokeyness is coming from, it can also be described as powdery, this might be the spices or tobacco. I really have no idea. The next thing that catches my nose is the tobacco, vanille and leather combination in this fragrance. These three notes are greatly balanced which gives off a unique and marvellous scent. None of the notes are overwhelming or overpowering the other notes. The strongest one of them is vanille, but it is not too strong, 40/30/30 balance.

Now some words of the fragrance in action. About a month ago a friend of mine hosted a party, to which I wore this fragrance. A few people complimented me at the start of the night, but as the night went on, people drunk some more and smoked more which makes it harder to smell a fragrance. The longetivity of the fragrance needs some attention aswell. I sprayed 5 sprays on at about 20:00, before the party, two on my skin, three on my shirt. The next morning just as I went into the shower, I turned around to grab a towel and there it was. About 15 hours later, the smell of Tabac Nomade, unfortunately I got a bit of a headache because the smell was so overwhelming. However, the fragrance sits, it sits great.

A Perfume with an Attractive Composition
WOW , Amazing Fragrance ! Elegant, Classy, Spicy, Airy, Modern and Complex. You can't go wrong with it, I tried it in store and I received a sample of that. This perfume has High Quality Composition and Well-blended. Tabac Nomade was on my Radar and I bought it after two weeks. I fell in love with it at first sniff. It opens up with slightly sweet creamy citrusy, fruity, floral rose and spices notes in the background then dry down is semi sweet Vanilla, Tobacco , Ambery and Leathery . This is perfect for the Spring, Fall and Winter, Longevity is very good. The Leather, Rose ,Tobacco Leaf and Vanilla notes are dominant in this perfume. Highly Recommended.
Two Thumbs Up.
Bravo Houbigant !

Houbigant - welcome back
After smelling Fougere Royale for the first time, I realized that Houbigant is not your typical perfume house.

The class and beautiful complexity of the scents, leaves you wanting more.
More is what they have come up with, Ambre des Abysses is absolutely stunning and Tabac Nomade, is a spicy, sweet, aromatic type of scent which you can only experience with Tobacolor from DIOR and nothing else.

I got a sample from Jovoy to try them and I am very impressed, this will last long and also will garner you a bunch of compliments. Enjoy the video :) Merci !

Can’t see the wilderness of the desert
I know I'm not very popular in saying I don't really appreciate the opening of this perfume (a blend of spices and, above all, a rather sweet rose), which evolves into a slightly sticky liquid vanilla extract, then concludes with a blend of leather and tobacco, which undoubtedly remains the most focused and enjoyable part of the fragrance, that is published by Houbigant as something that will show you “the wilderness of the desert”.
On the other hand, if I contextualize the same fragrance as a product aimed more at a female audience, perhaps not so young, and within the Houbigant production, which, aside from a few flourishes, is classic and French, I can better understand the reasons and justify that opening and its vibes.
That said, it's not for me!

Creaminess in Perfection
Even the opening of this fragrance gives the moment a certain contemplativeness and makes time seem to stand still.

This perfume is clearly dominated by bright, soft leather and vanilla/tonka bean. Light florals and spices add some depth but overall do not stand out strongly. In total, we simply have a cloud of creaminess and a flattering sweetness that surrounds us.

I would have wished for a touch more strength (e.g. oud, wood), but still, the fragrance is truly beautiful and well-crafted!

This is actually a smoother but still very likable version of Oajan DNA.

Comforting Sophistication. Perfectly under the radar . Yes...comparable to Dior Tobacolor. The Vanilla is prominent as if it almost baking.

I had high hopes for this one but the tobacco note is pretty hard to detect. It smells like a melange of scents that don’t fit together.

Very sweet amber, think Vanille Havane but with some florals and fresh citrus. Quite versatile tobacco.

I also have the impression I've smelled this scent before. Spicy-rosy, sweet-tobacco floral, saffron and leather come...

Clearly follows the current trend of tobacco-tonka-spice-leather; everything else gets lost: You can wear it, but you don't have to.

A brother of Tobacolor by DIOR. It's so good and spicy, with saffron and vanilla. For the price, top recommendation. Only 7.1? No way..

The spicy tobacco-heavy scent alternates between rose, leather, saffron & vanilla and seems to have commitment issues. Indecisive mix.

Sweet tobacco mingles with roses,
saffron unfortunately takes a back seat.
A bit of vanilla, quite fabulous,
on fine leather, it becomes truly grand.

Spicy tobacco-leather scent with bergamot, then maybe cherry or vanilla as partners. With rose + saffron, it partly reminds me of banana bread.
