    What do reviewers say about Karat EG and Tobacco Rose?

    Chypre fragrances usually play it safe. Karat EG doesn't. The Turkish rose here isn't the powdery nostalgia of your grandmother's vanity, it's darker, earthier, with a pulse.Karat EG
    The name misleads. There's no tobacco leaf, no Virginia smoke, no pipe. What arrives instead is a rose so complete, so saturated with smoky earth and beeswax.Tobacco Rose
