With Autumn's arrival, this fragrance is perfect to wear for this colder weather.

Tom Ford first launched Tobacco Vanille in 2007. A spicy, oriental fragrance aimed for both men and women. The top notes consist of tobacco leaf and spicy notes; The middle notes are tonka bean, tobacco blossom, vanilla and cacao; The base notes are dried fruits and woody notes.

A few years ago I was with a friend of mine in the Tom Ford department at Harvey Nichols. We had both been sampling some fragrances of his at the counter, looking at each other in awe of these stunning fragrances and as I came to the Tobacco Vanille, it hit me. I knew within those first few seconds that I had at long last, found my signature scent.

That smell of sweetness and strength of the Tonka Bean blended magically with the Tobacco Leaf and the other notes coming alive with the initial spray. The longevity of this scent lasts for hours and hours. I often find clothes in my wardrobe with the scent imprinted onto the fabric days after wearing it. The projection can be overwhelming at times so take caution when spraying! (I didn't.)

I bought this fragrance for my 21st as a little present for myself and I always knew that it had smelt divine, but I never knew just how many compliments I would get from wearing this. I would wear this during the daytime as well as the evening. People would often tell me they knew where I had been due to the smell lingering in the air; whether or not that was a good thing, I didn't care because I felt I smelt like a God. This is a fragrance that can instantly be personified.

If you're looking for something that is dramatic, powerful and simply charismatic, I would definitely recommend buying this fragrance.
