Eternal Touch

Tobacco Touch

Maison Alhambra

I don't know the "original," but this one really stands out! Especially when it comes to the spice. Here, juniper berries roll over cloves, coriander leaves, finely crumbled, coriander, and allspice - a whole shelf of various spices. All of this is intertwined with aromatic tobacco leaves for fine cigars or pipes.
Despite all the many "edible" elements, it is not a gourmand scent for my nose. Although cocoa and vanilla are also present. The former is bittersweet, while the vanilla is dark and smoky. Only the tonka bean adds something very subtly "gourmandish."
The specified dried fruits are so tightly woven with the bitter-dark woods that they hardly make an appearance. Especially the clove becomes particularly prominent later, but it certainly does not overshadow the other spicy components. These create a strong chorus around the clove opera diva. And all the other fragrance notes serve as a successful backdrop for her grand entrance.
A perfume for everyone who likes it heavily spiced, including gingerbread and spice bread lovers, of course ;-))
