Tobacco Honey confronts two materials: the roughness of tobacco, treated as an accord, and the golden glow of honey. The ambery tobacco accord drapes itself in vanilla, tonka bean and sesame; honey then lights it up, with a hint of clove and an anise accord.

In the base, creamy sandalwood and oud wood extend the trail. A contrasting amber from the L'Art & La Matière collection.

Tobacco Honey in detail

In the L'Art & La Matière collection, Guerlain puts one material in the spotlight each time. Tobacco Honey confronts a rough tobacco, sulphurous by reputation and treated here as an accord, with the golden glow of honey: two characters that answer each other.

Guerlain cites its notes in the text, without tiers. The ambery tobacco accord drapes itself in vanilla, tonka bean and sesame; honey then lights it up, with a hint of clove and an anise accord. In the base, creamy sandalwood and oud wood extend the trail.

Tobacco Honey suits autumn and winter, especially in the evening, by the fire or at a festive dinner. Its contrast between the bitterness of tobacco and the sweetness of honey makes it a fragrance of character, more nuanced than a simple gourmand.

Three amber fragrances in our catalogue come close: Tobacco Vanille by Tom Ford shares tobacco, tonka bean and vanilla; Side Effect by Initio pairs tobacco, vanilla and sandalwood; Alexandria II by Xerjoff finds oud, sandalwood and vanilla again.
