Every face of the tobacco leaf, none of the ashtray.
Rum, coffee, cardamom and Greek saffron open it, raspberry, plum, hay absolute, osmanthus and orris butter fill the heart, and patchouli, oakmoss, nagarmotha, castoreum and sandalwood close it out.
Perfumed by: Angelos Balamis
KSI Take: Sweetened only by tonka and hay, so it lands drier and mossier than the vanilla tobaccos it will get compared to. Mushroom absolute and deadwood in the base give it a damp forest floor quality that reads either as serious or as strange, with little middle ground.
