Tabac Original Eau de Cologne 100 ml multi-colored

Product Information

However, the red waves across the rest of the cardboard, which are either lava or water, feel out of place. They come across as too recent to coincide with a 1950s feel yet too retro to be modern, which leaves us with something oddly 1990s. Tobacco (Lat. Nicotiana) is a genus of plants of the solanaceous family (Lat. Solanaceae). This family is represented by such apparent tobacco relatives as tomato, eggplant, bell pepper (capsicum), potato, boxthorn (better known as goji berries) as well as some very poisonous plants such as belladonna, datura and henbane. Among synthetic tobacco scent shaping odorants, we find compounds of very different structure: many synthetic cariotenoids have a tobacco note, with veltonal, a Bedoukian product, being one of the brightest examples of that: an intense violet-ionone odorant with a distinctive tobacco tone and an interesting raspberry-pomegranate fruity accord. People make home-made absolute from these flowers, which has a deep floral aroma with notes of violet, cloves, spices and dried fruit, however the material is not produced on an industrial scale. An absolute that is somewhat similar to tobacco in terms of aroma is another natural material – the absolute of Blazing star (Lat. Liatris odoratissima), a plant of the aster family (Lat. Asteraceae): sweet, herbal- coumarin, with undertones of vanilla. Combined with musks, heliotropine, ionones and cinnamon, Liatris absolute creates a very interesting and dry powdery accord.

Strictly speaking, Mäurer & Wirtz acquired 4711 in 2006 from Procter & Gamble. They themselves bought it from Wella AG who had taken over the Mülhens family company in 1994. Tabac Original opens on a characteristically eau de cologne citrus burst that is indeed reminiscent of Mäurer & Witrz’s 4711. Sharp bergamot and lime notes are given a fatty bitterness by the presence of petitgrain. As they evaporate, rich and fatty jasmine notes lead us to the fragrance’s heart. Heart Notes FDA and Fragrantica warn you: smoking is bad for your health. Meanwhile, fragrances, including tobacco-themed ones, are absolutely harmless and they can always lift your mood. There is also a great number of fantasy fragrances where the tobacco note is sometimes used in a rather unusual context: e.g. Parfum d'Empire Tabac Tabouwith its daffodil-honey accord, plus a tart and burnt note of immortelle; the aniseed-aquatic Tabac Licorii by Maison Incens. The biggest contributors to the shaping of its charateristic tobacco fragrance are carotenoids: ionones and their many derivatives, damascenone, edulane and its derivatives, theaspiranes (important components of the scent of tea and osmanthus), safranal, megastigmatrienone – which is also present in osmanthus, but plays one of major roles here; Symrise and certain other companies produce it under the brand Tabanon.The top notes of Tabac Nuit open with a burst of sweet floral tones, blending seamlessly with the rich and warm undertones of tobacco. As the fragrance develops, the tobacco becomes more prominent, adding a depth and complexity to the scent that is both alluring and irresistible.

From the peppered heart to the sandalwood base, there’s always a slight reminder that this is a man’s fragrance. Presentation and Value For Money Faint oak notes reach out from the floral bouquet to draw us to the fragrance’s base. Here we experience an accord of sandalwood and vetiver with a long amber finish, which features hints of rose-scented tallow soap. Tabac Original is a somewhat unique and unexpected specimen from classic fragrances. Unlike its contemporaries that often came from the Aromatic and Oriental families, it’s a striking Floral Aldehyde. Although there is an aromatic and woody presence, they offer an extension to the notable floral bouquet. Head Notes The jasmine brings us to an overtly floral heart, which features a rich bouquet of lavender, chamomile and carnations. Depth is created by warm notes of peppers that maintain a sense of conventional masculinity to this overly feminine heart. Base Notes Tabac is a contrasting fragrance, a hot-cold blend that combines the scent of hookah embers with fresh, fruity notes.The fragrance name Tabac has the ring of a surprising encounter, an invitation to discover the nuances of fresh tobacco tinged with lively colours. Robust, generous and rich with aromas, the Maison Alhambra / Lattafa’s Tabac Perfume / Eau De Parfum is Inspired by Tobacolor. Tabac unfurls a beautifully sensual oriental trail; the bewitching scent evokes travel and freedom. There is a slightly different way to go about it: first they do the initial extraction, then they add a special high boiling solvent and conduct a codistillation resulting in a weakly colored viscous liquid. The fragrance comes in a minimalist curved white glass bottle. The stencil-style Tabac logo is centred with the establishing year above and “Original” in red below. It’s decidedly 1950s and its retro vibe looks great on a bathroom shelf. People often mention Caron's Tabac Blondas one of the most famous tobacco fragrances, but it is rather more leather Isobutyl Quinoline, i.e. leather in vanilla sauce with hints of cloves and iris. Coumarin gives tobacco a somewhat sweet hay note (together with benzaldehyde, coumarin creates the very recognizable almond-cherry accord), while macrolactones, mostly pentadecanolide, impart the rather easily perceptible musky tone. Among odorants that shape the scent of tobacco we even find ambroxan and some similar compounds: they impart the amber accord with all its multiple facets to the tobacco scent.
