Vanille en Tobacco
“The closest of the cheap clones — dense tobacco, vanilla, and cocoa that lands within a whisper of the Tom Ford original.”
Fragrance World's 2021 Vanille en Tobacco is widely positioned as an alternative to Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille (2007): tobacco leaf opens over vanilla and cocoa, settling on dried fruits. Vanilla leads the accords, with sweet and tobacco facets. The cocoa and dried fruits give the tobacco a rich, dessert-like warmth. Wears strongest in winter and fall, evening-leaning.
