Perfect Tobacco
by S.T. Dupont
Perfect Tobacco by S.T. Dupont delivers a rich, sweet, and spicy tobacco experience that leans heavily into vanilla and warm spices, with a distinct rose and oud presence in its core development. The scent opens with aromatic cinnamon and ginger, leading to a deep, rosy tobacco note that evolves into a creamy, sweet vanilla and oud base. It is well-balanced and complex, with excellent projection and longevity—proven to last beyond 10 hours on skin and even longer on fabric. While opinions diverge, many agree it is unisex with a masculine-leaning character, especially in the dry down. The fragrance performs with strong sillage and a noticeable but not overwhelming presence, making it ideal for evening wear in colder months. Some users find it too sweet or dominated by vanilla, while others praise its elegance and value, especially compared to higher-end niche equivalents.
