I became aware of this fragrance through a super Souk user (greetings to Miffy :D) who recommended it to me.
I would never have ordered even a sample just because of the name because I'm always afraid that it will be too honey-heavy if the fragrance is already called that.

What can I say, he had sent me three other samples and one of them was the Ambre Tabac which had very good ratings and the fragrance reviews went in the direction I wanted.
Like Naxos but a bit more edgy and a bit more tobacco heavy.

The end of the story was that I didn't like the fragrance at all because the Ambre Tabak was too honey-heavy for my nose and the Honey Tobacco was exactly what I wanted at first sniff!

Tobacco-honey-jasmine... and the heart note starts immediately and stays forever.
I just keep smelling the sample because I'm so in love with it. I'm definitely going to get a full bottle of this!

I am thrilled with the fragrance!
As soon as I sprayed it on for the first time, I thought oh man, it smells great.

Very citrusy at first, it later becomes softer, more floral and creamy.

It definitely reminds me of our vacation in Croatia and makes me feel a little wanderlust every time.

I also think the longevity and sillage are very good and it will definitely be one of my favorite summer fragrances.

Together with Alexandria 2, this fragrance is my favorite evening scent for the cold season.

I have not been able to perceive any real scent progression, but it is equally good from start to finish.

It is also not as complex as a Blonde Amber by Clive Christian, for example, but I find the simplicity of this amber fragrance very pleasant.

I first smelled the Erba Pura on a friend of mine when I got into his car
The whole interior was fragrant and I asked him what perfume he had bathed in and he said I had only used 2 sprays.
However, since the smell was not unpleasant to me and I always wanted to buy a more expensive perfume that was more performant, I organized the Erba Pura as my first sneeze fragrance.

In hindsight, I would have preferred just the 50 ML or the Erba Gold altogether because it is quite beastly.

It doesn't seem that bad to me, but there are some people who are very allergic to it.

I therefore wear it less often than originally planned as I only actually wear it outside when the weather is nice.
As soon as you are in a building, you serve as a human room fragrance

I'm still considering whether to swap it for the Erba Gold as I found it a little less harsh.

Some time ago, I smelled the Birkholz Portraits of Portofino at a friend's house and fell in love with it immediately
The only thing I had criticized was the durability and sillage.

After browsing the net a bit, I came across this fragrance which is said to have a similar DNA.
And what can I say...
I was also blown away straight away.
It starts a little less citrusy than the Birkholz, but I notice the mandarin more.
It feels like it lasts longer and has a similar sillage.
But it may also be that this is because you are not stingy when spraying due to the price.
I think this is a beautiful fragrance and am also considering selling my Birkholz for it again because I will probably always wear this one in the future.
The bottle and box are also really very high quality for such a price.

Love goes out to the developers of this fragrance.
