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

Oh dear, the direction of the new Houbigant doesn't sound promising.

At first, I was on board, but then...

Houbigant seems to have lost some quality.

It's definitely a bit different from the other direction. Two of the scents aren't my thing, but I actually like two of them. I really liked the new women's fragrance; Houbigant has won me over with that one.

The new Houbigants sound quite nice, pretty safe, and not very exciting.

Nice, yes, exciting only partly, but definitely not entirely. Some things feel safe, but I can imagine that some will be more special for the regular customers, especially when I compare it to the more classic Houbigant.
Also, it depends on the person, because one thing doesn't come through as much here, but for me, the Tabac and Oud Or were somewhat more challenging to test, as it was a lot for me due to the nature of the fragrances.

Banana bread ;-)

Sounds quite tempting, except for the banana bread. Although, having banana bread in the morning would definitely earn some extra points ;)

It's definitely an accessible oriental, but it might not be for everyone. The patchouli scent has something familiar for me, but it still plays around with it. The amber scent dares to show the most different facets. Houbigant also offers great value for money here.

I think they wanted to release a few safe mainstream numbers.

I can't say for sure if it really is banana bread since I don't have any to compare it to, but one aspect of the scent definitely made me think of it.
For me personally, the fragrance isn't something I would wear because it's just not my style, especially with the different tobacco variations mixed with cherry and vanilla.

For me, the scent has a somewhat gourmand character, without really being a gourmand.
