    Real talk

    Tobacco and vanilla done with actual restraint. No syrup, no overkill. The powdery warmth gives it an intimate quality that draws people in, and the cinnamon provides just enough nerve to keep it.1930
    The vanilla-tuberose axis here doesn't whisper. It's a full-throated vintage floral with enough tropical sweetness to be polarizing. But that's exactly the point.1950
