Tabac Man Gravity After Shave Lotion 50 ml

A truly successful and creative fragrance. Tobacco and rose are both wonderfully noticeable and harmonize surprisingly well with each other. The individual fragrance notes feel high-quality and natural, underscoring the quality of the raw materials used. The bottle and overall presentation also make a very elegant impression. For 100 ml, I find the price absolutely fair. I have rarely smelled a fragrance of this kind before - for me, definitely a valuable addition to the collection.

Actually, I wanted something completely different. My goal was Gris Charnel. After all the praise, I just had to test it. The disappointment was all the greater when it left me completely cold. So, out of curiosity, I reached for Tabac Rose. And suddenly there was a scent I had not expected at all. A friend immediately said, “Strong fragrance. But more for women.” I could never quite understand that. Yes, it has a certain elegance and sensuality, but for me, it is not clearly feminine. Still, at some point, I found myself asking: When would I actually wear it myself? I never found an answer. So, it went to my girlfriend. And I don’t regret it one bit. On her, Tabac Rose unfolds exactly what fascinated me from the very first moment: this intense spiciness, paired with an almost hypnotic sensuality. It has something incredibly attractive about it, without being clumsy or loud. Sometimes the best perfume you buy isn’t for yourself at all.

This fragrance caught me right away. No slow approach, but immediately this "What is this, please?" feeling. Dark, slightly syrupy rose meets spicy tobacco and a warm, almost oriental depth. The rose is not soft or classically feminine, but distinctly darker and more mature. The scent develops on the skin in a very exciting way and remains consistently interesting without becoming flat. It is exactly this complexity that makes it stick in your mind and not disappear quickly. Longevity and sillage are strong, yet well controlled and not overly loud. For me, an extremely fascinating, characterful fragrance with real recognizability.

Tabac Rose is a spicy, strong rose fragrance that I actually like very much. The rose feels very deep and slightly dark to me with a subtle fruity note. The plum as a fragrance note comes through well. However, I also own Radical Rose by Matière Première, and the two fragrances overall go in a very similar direction for me. Therefore, I don't need Tabac Rose as well. If you already have Radical Rose on your shelf, Tabac Rose could be somewhat redundant. All in all, it is a good fragrance that I might buy when Radical Rose is empty.
