/ 10 community score
Red Tobacco is praised for outstanding longevity and performance, with a beautiful warm, sweet drydown that improves significantly after the harsh opening. However, the community is divided on projection strength and questions the quality of the tobacco note itself, with many suggesting superior alternatives exist. It works best for those willing to tolerate a rough opening in exchange for all-day wear.
Strengths
- Exceptional longevity and performance (12-14 hours+)
- Strong projection that lasts 6-7 hours
- Excellent value for money and affordability
- Beautiful, smooth warm drydown with vanilla and tobacco notes
Weaknesses
- Harsh, unpleasant opening (described as sewage-like or chemical)
- Projection inconsistency across batches and climates
- Vanilla can overpower in drydown
- Requires time to settle before wearing
