Warm spicy (cinnamon), vanillic, sweet tobacco (leaf), nutty (cacao) opening Vanilla-Tobacco-Cacao gourmand fusion Has the bitter nuance courtesy of the cacao which is a nice touch Very mature, masculine, classic yet modern fragrance Great projection and sillage Appropriate for the office and great for casual to semi-formal evening events Best for Fall and Winter Creamy, woody, fruity (dried fruits), still sweet and vanillic, subtle tobacco (sweet) on dry down Elegant "chess piece" bottle, chocolate brown color; light plastic cap, good atomizer with limited span Great longevity Very discernible for 2-3 hours but stays long as a skin scent and on clothes for another 4-5 hours Great overall performance I would highly recommend TF Tobacco Vanille ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cozy-Decadent-Confident Supposed Clones: 1. Charuto Tobacco Vanille = 9/10 (sweeter then OG, can compete with the longevity of the OG, stays long as a skin scent) 2. Maison Alhambra Tobacco Touch = 8.5/10 (harsh opening, moderate longevity, ME vibe) 3. Fragrance World Vanille En Tobacco m= 8/10 (harsh opening, shortest longevity, least projection)

To put it mildly, today was filled with contradictions. Bad news followed by good news, ups followed by downs: - Professionally - things started off a bit contentious with clients, but once the dust settled all was just jim-dandy.👍 - Personally - Today is FINALLY my wife's real birthday so the week-long "celebration" and "fun" is FINALLY coming to an end. - Recreationally - On the golf course I experienced the dreaded "Ray-Ray". A Ray-Ray is when you play one nine like Ray Floyd (Golf Hall of Famer) 🏌️⛳ and then you play the second nine like Ray Charles (legendary singer, song-writer and performer, but completely blind.) Needless to say, ol' Ray Charles wasn't known for his golfing skills 😎. And the last contradiction; I won the money but I had to buy the drinks for EVERYONE because of the Ray-Ray.🤑 So now the question becomes what frangrance(s) would represent all these contradictions today? Clearly a blend is in order. I've been wanting to reach for my Black Afgano for a while so the question is what's the exact opposite of the dark, smoky and quite polarizing Black Afgano? How about the happy and cheerful crowd-pleaser Xerjoff's Naxos? Yeah! It WORKS! Black Afgano: Smoky, resinous, dark, heavy cannabis/oud, woody. Naxos: Sweet, bright, honeyed tobacco, creamy vanilla, soft lavender. The result is not just complementary; it is really something quite special. It merges the rough, mysterious, and earthy darkness of BA with the elegant, warmth and gourmand smoothness of Naxos. This creates a deeply complex scent that is greater than the sum of its parts. It's a winner! I"m expecting great longevity based on the players here. Given the facts and circumstances today, I have to rate this is a: 9.0 / 10.0.
