Two tobacco absolutes, one of them smoking under birch tar.
Virginia blonde and Criollo tobacco absolutes layer bright leaf over dark, and clove, Sri Lankan cinnamon, antique birch tar and an animalic sandalwood base give it smoke and body.
Perfumed by: Michele Marin
KSI Take: Tobacco absolute does the work here rather than the usual vanilla and cocoa proxy, which makes it drier and more leaf-like than the genre standard. The birch tar is assertive enough to divide opinion.
