Classy tobacco
Modern kids don't smoke. They vape. So called e-liquids flavored like Cherry Coke, Blueberry Muffin or Vanilla Yoghurt. Perfumery follows a similar trend of bubblegum sweetness. And sadly, even today's tobacco scent are nothing but vape flavors: Vanilla fruity infusions. Sigh. I miss the scent of pipe tobacco, cigarillos, big fat Cubans, Dutch shag and even the spicy Indonesian kretek.
Thankfully, Lyn Harris did not send this perfume down the vape road. Instead, Feuilles de Tabac presents a spicy tobacco without any unnecessary sweetness. Classy and nevertheless modern in terms of sophistication and quality. It features a marvelous opening of brittle dry tobacco leaf, spiced up with pimento. For aficionados of classic tobacco like myself, this is top-notch.
Into the second hour, the dry tobacco starts to fade. Although a more moist tobacco takes over, the magic is lost a bit. At this point I sense some similarity with the drydown of Guerlain's Vetiver. Still very pleasant, of course, just a few steps down from the initial wow.
All in all, a very enjoyable experience. Classy and sophisticated perfume, clearly of high quality. Highly recommended!
