Undervalued...

I've known the scent for quite some time. I have occasionally risked a sniff in passing. I have never bought it.

Until I took it with me after all.

Sprayed it on and was immediately overwhelmed. This spiciness and freshness. Woodiness also comes through well. A tart, masculine composition. A slight sweetness wafts somewhere in the background.

The performance is perfectly fine. I can smell it all day long. Even if it becomes skin-deep after about two or three hours. This is noticeable in the sillage.

A really interesting little water. Unique in its form. Could also be at home in the niche sector, for more than ten times the price of €13 for the bottle.
Just take it with you, it basically costs nothing.

I think it's great.

Modern-old-fashioned, intense-transient

A very nice fragrance. Smells very clean, yet spicy and distinctive tart.
It has a certain old-fashioned style in its DNA, but has no problem blending in with the modern. The original Tabac is not really my thing. This one, on the other hand, seems more contemporary and rounded to me - more suitable for the masses.
Nevertheless, one smells him very rarely and I have recently made an experience that makes me think the name "Tabac" simply precedes him and prevents that he is ever taken in the hand and smelled.
"What about this one?" a man with a wide grin across his face asked his female companion. "Ew, Tabac. get lost with it."
Granted, the lady was of younger vintage and the original Tabac may not be hers at all. Even me, who develops a penchant for older, classic fragrances, he seems a little strict.
But the Tabac Men is just different. A barbershop fragrance, as he could still come out today.
Habs me then verkniffen them Oberlehrerhaft to instruct that this Tabac, which is in the black bottle, just NOT like the original and would definitely be worth a try.
"Who does not want, has already." I thought to myself and rummaged further in the lower shelf segment (where I then came across the Hitfire from La Rive. But more about that elsewhere).

Unfortunately, the fragrance lasts only very short with me. Already after an hour I smell him only skin close and after 3-4 hours the magic is over.
He is but just right if you want to feel / smell fresh and clean for a few hours after shaving or showering in the morning.

I had him with me on a summer vacation. In the bright midday sun, he is too heavy. Makes yes but nix, because morning put on he is at noon eh already evaporated. In the evening, paired with the salty scent of the sea and a good glass of wine, he is but also a feel-good fragrance.
My female companion he has not elicited leaps of joy, but for good he was found. So he is, the Tabac Man ... no big fuss, no big ripper. Subtle and good. A fragrance that one (s) for itself and not for Haschen after compliments carries.

Maybe I'll buy you again...

Long before I was born, my grandma had a new partner after my grandpa passed away. Hermann is one of the best people I've ever met, no problem on that he has no advice, no situation he has not under control, a friendly smile is always on his face, the next joke, often a crude saying on the lips, the Marlboro always between the fingers...

For me, Hermann was always "Dadden". Why, nobody knows. Somehow I christened him that from the very first words. Dadden always had slightly scratchy cheeks, smelled like his Marlboros, Yves Rocher aftershave, maybe some hair lotion, and in the evening, his after-work beer. Maybe he smelled like the scratchy lavender of Tabac Man when you met in town, when birthdays were coming up or when you went out to eat? Maybe. I couldn't have answered it that way. But I know that Dadden is grandpa to me, at least as much grandpa as a biological one can be.

From Grandpa to Grandpa Scents. These fascinated me from the start and in my youthful ignorance Tabac Man moved in with me when I was 16-17 (the "real" Tabac followed later). The desired effect failed to materialize, I didn't smell like the seasoned man I wanted to be back then, I just had a cloud of that scratchy lavender around me. Made up masculinity from the bottle, like a too sharp shower gel, nothing real that connects with you. Disappointment, the bottle was emptied and went out of my life.

Dadden went too, he died in 2009, fall down stairs, overnight, the last "take care, regards to grandma" was an unconscious goodbye. A real one was not granted to us anymore, he did not wake up in this world. 12 years ago now, memories fade, his voice fades from thought.
Two weeks ago I reached for the last of a Tabac Man deodorant, wanting to finally use it up, it had been sitting for far too long. Sprayed it on, yes there it is again, the scratchy lavender, pungent shower gel, a good decision to finally empty it!
But when I came back from the bathroom to the dressing room, by the cloud had settled a bit now, there was something else. A fleeting moment, a quick passing that left just a hint of scent. But enough to recognize you.

Now I know, yes, you had Tabac Man! Sparingly sprayed on when you met in town, birthdays were coming up or you went out to eat. Not much, just a whiff in passing, fleeting and impossible to hold on to. But there.

That was our goodbye. It took him 12 years but now you were there briefly.

And my goodbye to Tabac Man? Maybe I'll buy you again... As long as you're here for a little while
