Amber Oud Tobacco Edition
Amber Oud Tobacco Edition by Al Haramain is an unisex eau de parfum from 2021 in the budget price tier. It opens with ginger, black pepper, cinnamon and tobacco leaf, moves into tonka bean, clove, star anise, vanilla, cocoa and incense and dries down to tobacco. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
An affordable take on Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Ginger Warm, zesty and slightly soapy. Bridges citrus and spice.
- Black Pepper Dry and prickly. Gives a fragrance grip and a bit of bite.
- Cinnamon Sweet heat. Reads festive, sometimes to a fault.
- Tobacco Leaf Greener and drier than cured tobacco. Hay-like.
Heart
- Tonka Bean Almond, hay and vanilla in one. Warm and slightly nutty.
- Clove Hot, dry and dental. Powerful — a little goes a long way.
- Star Anise Liquorice-like and cool. Sweet but not sugary.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Cocoa Dry, dusty chocolate. Bitter rather than sweet.
- Incense Smoky, dry and meditative. Adds gravity to anything.
Dry-down
- Tobacco Sweet, dried and honeyed. Nothing like a cigarette.
