Al Haramain Perfumes

Amber Oud Tobacco Edition

EDP2019

“The spicier read on Tobacco Vanille — cinnamon and clove over vanilla, tonka, and cacao, loud enough to fill a winter room.”

Amber Oud Tobacco Edition
warm spicy
sweet
vanilla

A spiced tobacco-vanilla from Al Haramain's Amber Oud series, released in 2019: tobacco leaf and cinnamon open over a vanilla heart, with dried fruits in the base. Frequently compared to Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille (2007). Warm spice leads the accords, followed by sweet, vanilla and tobacco facets. Wears strongest in winter and fall, evening-leaning, with a dense presence.
