Lioncourt

This is another one of those compositions with "tobacco" in its name, but I can't smell it predominantly enough for that.
Maybe the note is there? Sure.
But I'd highlight other things more: a floral scent at first with a broad, warm, oud-based base.
It also seems to contain cocoa, which may be what gives it that creamy quality. It's a creamy cocoa (not earthy), which I suppose is the result of the influence of amber.
I'd even say it could have some ambergris-like or animalic notes that somewhat darken the tone of the composition.

It's an interesting scent, but not easy to assimilate; you have to have personality to wear it.
It can be elegant, seductive, from a somewhat intense, almost gothic perspective.

Its performance (2025) is what you'd expect from a composition based on natural ingredients. Not very prominent, but not one of the weakest of its kind either.

This is a composition that feels familiar to me, very similar to Perverso by Baruti, except that in this case there is no balsamic note.
Indeed, there is a strong dominance of spices and nuts (walnut, peanut, and almond?), and the tobacco in the name isn't particularly noticeable to me at all, at least at first. After a while, I find it somewhat more present.
I notice a slight alcoholic, liqueur note, but not predominant.
There may be slight sweet aspects, but they don't strike me as gourmand at all.
In the end, there is a bit of dirt and darkness that may come from notes like ambergris and castoreum.
I wouldn't say it's as easy a perfume to smell as the readable notes suggest.
This requires a strong personality to wear.
The naturalness of the ingredients, which I believe to be authentic, doesn't offer exaggerated results, as one might expect, but they are certainly not poor either.

A smoky scent with a resinous and spicy base, but quite faint.
Rather than smoky, it could be said to resemble "burnt wood."
Often, these types of scents evoke a cozy feeling at home, but this isn't the case.
I'd say it's a post-fire scent, for a night out.
That spicy note, I'd say, places it on a slightly more masculine than unisex level.
Unfortunately, its projection is quite weak, its silage even weaker, and it lasts only a short time on the skin.

This interesting scent is surprising for this house, which usually creates such dark and powerful works.
It's one of the house's most daytime and luminous scents, of course, but it still has that interesting quality.
For me, it would be a powdery marine fragrance, very much in the style of Mariners Rhyme by Francesca Bianchi, but with an added, gloomy, damp cave aroma like Zoologist's The Bat, or rather, the authentic and true Nightflyer by Ellen Covey in Olympic Orchids, but in this case without the banana note.
Unfortunately, its performance isn't like the aforementioned scents. Its silage and projection are weak, and its longevity on skin is moderate. In a niche context, it's also true that its price isn't excessive for that context, so it can always be reapplied and overapplied.

An extremely pleasant oud.
With a strong presence of powerful oud and sweet amber nuances that likely reinforce the pronounced vanilla, it's certainly easy to wear.
Obviously, the heavy oud load ultimately contributes to a relatively dark and animalic scent that's very interesting and seductive.
The evolution allows the powerful oud to settle and relax, revealing a more comfortable and peaceful woody undertone, with a stronger amber balance.

This won't blow away the minds of pure oud lovers, but it makes it more relatable and friendly to those new to this passion.

Its performance is as expected from a natural oud composition, with a decent duration of a few hours (5-6?) on the skin and projection and light silage for an hour or two.
