What do reviewers say about Encre Noire and Tabac Grande?
This is the fragrance for someone who wants vetiver and nothing else. No florals to soften it, no sweetness to apologize for. Just the dry, earthy depth of roots and bark.Encre Noire
The civet and hyraceum are the whole point. They don't whisper. If you want polite tobacco, look elsewhere. Tabac Grande goes straight for the memory, pipe smoke, cognac on the breath.Tabac Grande
