    Real talk

    Bold sweetness with a spicy kickback, tonka and vanilla carry the weight but saffron and davana keep it from tipping into dessert territory. It's warm without being heavy.Carlisle
    It's not trying to be liked by everyone, and that's exactly the point. Red Tobacco projects hard and smells expensive. The opening is a red flag for bubblegum fans.Red Tobacco
