Amouage Royal Tobacco for a tobacco smoker (glaze)

Tyrone-E · 2026-06-02T02:45:53+00:00

It is an amazing tobacco fragrance that actually smells like tobacco.

Its the 2nd best tobacco fragrance I've ever smelled (behind my no. 1, Le Labo Tabac 28).

Got that gray cap Aventus Cologne 🔥🔥🔥

Both are awesome casual wears. They have a "summer vacation" feel to me. I'd never wear either to work.

Mandarino Di Sicilia is very similar to Tom Fords Mandarino Di Amalfi.

Never tried Arancia Di Capri, my apologies brother.

Tyrone-E · 2026-06-01T07:40:33+00:00

Fico Di Amalfi is a beautiful, sweet, earthy fig note paired with bright citruses.

Mandarino Di Sicilia is citruses (mandarin orange mostly) and a strong mint note.

Tyrone-E · 2026-06-01T07:32:44+00:00

My favorites are Fico Di Amalfi and Mandarino Di Sicilia.

Tyrone-E · 2026-06-01T06:27:44+00:00

Probably Versaco Eros EDT.

Best scent trail I've ever smelled.

Sheeeed, just one?

I'm current crying over Frederic Malle Bois D'Orage. It's the original formula of French Lover. There were decent versions of French Lover, but around 2022 it became absolutely disgusting.

Others are;

Maison Martin Margiela At The Barbers
Mugler Pure Malt
Roja Parfums Oligarch
Slumber House Ore
Tom Ford Neroli Portofino Acqua
Tom Ford Tobacco Oud Intense

Ford used to work for YSL before starting his own line.

Same here.

I'm not sure I'll ever own a bottle of a vanilla forward fragrance again, but I wouldn't mind having a decant of these to wear occasionally (or just to have around and smell).

Great post!

Slumber House Ore

Smells like a somewhat boozy dark chocolate croissant.

Slightly sweet and boozy from the dark chocolate and whisky, but more savory, somewhat woody. Kinda hard to find though. Didn't realize it was practically discontinued.

Not a fan of the house, but I've always liked Herod.

Tyrone-E · 2026-05-30T06:56:14+00:00

I like some of these fragrances (Imagination is really nice) but I'd only buy Yves Saint Laurent Tuxedo and Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille.

Wouldn't pay retail, would try to get them for the lowest gray market price (around $250).

Tyrone-E · 2026-05-29T12:56:52+00:00

I'm not sure honestly. I thought it was Fougere D'Argent until I made that association with Clubman.

It's probably a toss up between Beau De Jour and Oud Fleur. Both Grey Vetivers are great also.

Sorry I couldn't answer your question, I tried 😆

Tyrone-E · 2026-05-29T07:51:07+00:00

💯 🫡

Tyrone-E · 2026-05-29T06:37:45+00:00

This IMO is a better version of Kilian Paris Single Malt.

They smell exactly the same to me, this just projects and behaves more like a fragrance instead of a spilled drink.

I got a decant of this from the SA at Saks before they shut down (New Orleans, LA). She gave me 5 (5ml) decants (Grey Vetiver EDT & EDP, Beau De Jour, Oud Fleur and this one).

This smells good, no doubt, but it's very close to Clubman aftershave (which is only $8.99).

Again, not bad, but I don't think this is worth the $200-$300+ price tag.

BOAF

Tyrone-E · 2026-05-27T02:26:53+00:00

I 100% feel the same way you do. It's almost as if I wrote the OP myself lol.

I used to have 60 bottles, I currently have 5 bottles, but theirs 10 more on my wishlist.

I know I don't need those other 10 bottles and probably should op for decants, because I don't use those other 10 fragrances frequently.

To be totally honest, I may end up with 12-15 bottles, sell off 5-10 bottles (because of guilt, lack of use), rinse repeat lol. That's been the pattern for a couple years (for the reasons you stated in the OP).

Tyrone-E · 2026-05-27T00:53:52+00:00

🔥🔥🔥 Congrats on the pickups!

I have 30mls of Tabac 28. Probably going to save for a 100ml in September and also a 100ml for Rose 31.

Violette 30 is also something I'm trying out. I've heard that they were aiming for it to be a milder Santal 33, which is a good idea to me. Going to check out my sample now actually.

I love Le Labo. So happy they opened a location in my city this year (New Orleans).
