SOTE - Red Tobacco by Mancera
Do you ever look at your (grossly oversized) collection and think that you have nothing to put on now? In spite of my rather healthy collection with at least another a hundred decants, I'm always struggling with what to select. As I looked at my shelves tonight, it was obvious that my only option was Red Tobacco. Why is that? Not a clue, but it is what it is. I haven't reached for this stuff in about nine months but again, tonight it's Red Tobacco. This is a woody and very spicy frag, thatās warm, dense, and incredibly complex. The first spray is a bit of a medicinal saffron, cinnamon, and incense blast. It can be harsh and synthetic for a bit. Eventually, it settles into a rich, sweet, and smoky work of art. You get a heavy dose of tobacco leaf, vanilla, amber, and patchouli. You may also get a hint of green apple and pear that cuts through the heavy spices. I really enjoy this stuff but it's NOT a warm weather reach and is absolutely beasty. I prefer it to the Intense, but that's another discussion. It's really resonating with me tonight, so I'm giving it a: 8.0 / 10.0 Good night BoS. I'm going to watch that 2 hour video recommended by @Eric Tai on YouTube. It looks REALLY interesting.
