About This Perfume
Aaron Terence Hughes Tabac smells like soot-cured tobacco, soft rose, smoky cedar. It opens with tobacco leaf, moves into tobacco, Madagascar vanilla and Turkish rose and settles on ambergris, Oud and cedarwood. It reads unisex.
This extrait de parfum is best in spring, fall and winter and is an evening scent. A good pick for nights out. Released in 2023.
In the community's experience it lasts well into the evening, and projects strongly and fills a room. Wearers suggest letting a new bottle rest for a couple of weeks; it tends to smooth out.
