Overpriced leather
Cuir Tabac is a nice, austere, masculine and fairly formal patchouli-tobacco scent; not that original, and fairly similar to a lot of cheaper perfumes (from Yatagan – just less boozy/animalic - to Masque’s Montecristo – less skanky and dry - passing through Lutens’ Borneo 1834, Patchouli Nobile by Nobile 1942, and even the good old Arrogance pour Homme EdP). Basically Cuir Tabac is that: a “new fougère” with a load of patchouli sweetened by a nice, mellow, dark yet plushy tobacco note, slightly boozy too initially, with herbal-woody notes and a hint of “barbershop” soapy notes (lavender). The leather note is barely perceivable, this scent shall be named “Patchouli Tabac”... but overall it is not bad at all: it is classy, solid and mature, albeit crazily overpriced for the (just a tad more than average) quality.
