    What do reviewers say about Mystery Tobacco and Tabac?

    Not a statement fragrance. This is the one you reach for when you want to be remembered by the people who notice. Warm tobacco, not loud, but it lingers for hours on skin and days on fabric.Mystery Tobacco
    This is tobacco done without the syrupy clichés. The opening is sharper than expected, and that herbal edge gives it character. Worth sampling if you want tobacco without the dessert.Tabac
