Oud Tobacco

at this point I'm not sure what oud is because so many fragrances claim to contain it within their composition but being able to distinguish it has become more & increasing more arduous a task..but citrus..orange blossom & tobacco seemed like something my summer nights were made of sooooo..violá..the newest member to my collection..this scent doesn't require any major sleuthing..its incense mixed with a Flintstones vitamin container..not the Flintstone vitamins themselves but the actual container they were stored in trapping the essence of all of them simultaneously including the cotton ball which gives it a dry subtle somewhat powderiness at the end & its strong so being that the Flintstones were cavemen that provides some symmetry..maybe its the nostalgia factor making this intriguing to my olfactory senses but I can't resist sniffing this stuff..a masterpiece?? no..but it just might get you a piece *wink..wink*

I’m very surprised by this scent. Very well blended to the point that not many single ingredients stick out. Keep in mind that although I have about 70 frags, I don’t consider my nose to be too discerning. This reminds me of a sexy version of the way a Spencer’s/Hot Topic smells. Like sexy incense. Can’t say for sure whether these tobacco is noticeable, I’d lean towards no. But I love the scent and super stoked I picked up this as well as Arabians Tonka for winter. My skin sucks up fragrance so I appreciate strong ass scents. This is one of them. Spicy first, sweet second, a bit Smokey/incensey. Delicious.

Tonight, I'm reviewing the last Montale sample I have; Oud Tobacco. It's not secret that tobacco is one of my favorite notes used in fragrance, particularly sweet and smoky tobacco. Oud is one of those notes that sometimes I really enjoy, and other times I think smells like literal s***; but that's just how oud goes. When I read the name Oud Tobacco, I can't help but be reminded of Tom Ford's Tobacco Oud; one of my favorite Tom Ford scent DNA's (if only it had decent performance). Will the two smell similar? Is Oud Tobacco an inspiration of Tobacco Oud? Let's get into it and find out.

Sweet, tobacco , orange floral and a creamy honey note while the amber make is all smooth and ties it all together. While not too prominent I get a little citrus vibe somewhere in here. Feels very nicely blended and has a luxurious and classy feel to it. It has a lighter feel but a deep and rich scent. I only a pick up a tiny amount of oud and incense however this scent is till a beast. I do get the candy vibe people have mentioned. It does Have a synthetic vibe but in a good way so performance is amazing. As it developed on skin I liked it more and more.

I used to like mancera more over montale for a presentation and pressurised atomizer and magnetic caps. I had over 6-7 mancera and at the end i didin’t like it all of them i sold them all. So i blind bought montale honey aoud and it was a successful blind buy it was amazing and later i blind bought montale oud tobacco. I was scared of the name (Oud) and (tobacco) but its more beautiful than honey aoud both are amazing and for that reason now i believe montale is better and this oud tobacco is amazing and so strong
