Victorian Tobacco Galleria Parfums 2020

The Youtuber Ashton Kirkland from the channel "Gents Scents" is the creative director of the currently available seven fragrances of Galleria Perfumes. According to his own statement, he wanted to create a tobacco fragrance with this perfume, which moves away from the fruity-sweet mainstream tobacco fragrances. I actually perceive this fragrance to be quite unique.

It opens very tangy fresh with the apple, which will remain dominant over the entire course of the fragrance next to the tobacco and rather sour, rather than sweet radiates. Mixed is the apple with a dry alcoholic gin tonic juniper note. The spicy notes support the quite strong säuerlich-dry opening.

Relatively quickly then appears with the tobacco the second dominant note of the fragrance. The sour apple and tobacco remain clearly present throughout the further course of the fragrance. The tangy top notes are now caught by the woods of the heart notes, which give the whole together with the slightly earthy patchouli some depth.

The notes in the base then form a slightly softer ground. However, the fragrance is never sweet, never velvety, but remains rather tart and dry, perhaps even a little aggressive.

The main role plays, as already said above, the Tabak-Apfel-Kombinantion. Overall, an interesting, for me quite unusual fragrance off the mainstream paths. For me, however, he is a little too tart and sour
