Red Tobacco (Eau de Parfum, 2017) comes across as smoky incense, cinnamon, oud, tobacco leaves, starting with cinnamon and green apple before tobacco, vanilla and gaiac wood take over. With Cedrat Boise (Eau de Parfum, 2011), the scent is bright lemon cordial, fruity spices, woody leather, opening on Sicilian lemon and blackcurrant and drying down to leather, musk and oakmoss. Amore Caffè (Eau de Parfum, 2023) is built around creamy coffee, amaretto, with spiced cookie sweetness; coffee and amaretto up top and brown sugar, vanilla and ambergris underneath.
