1804 vs Tobacco Vanille

Opens with a sharp, almost medicinal oud that settles quickly into a dense, resinous core where agarwood and amber fuse into something thick and animalic. The leather emerges in the heart — dry and slightly smoky, grounded by spices that add warmth without sharpness. Projection is moderate and intentional; it doesn't announce itself across a room but holds close with serious sillage. The dry-down is where it earns its keep: a musky, woody residue that lingers for hours — Best worn in cold weather by someone who wants to smell expensive and deliberately unapproachable.

Opens with a burst of warm, slightly bitter tobacco leaf cut through with baking spices, then settles quickly into its real identity: a dense, almost edible heart of vanilla and tonka bean wrapped around sweet tobacco blossom and a whisper of cocoa. The dry-down is smooth and relentless, staying close to the skin but leaving a heavy, honeyed sillage that reads in any room. Projection is generous without being aggressive — this wears like an expensive dessert you're not sharing — Deep fall and winter evenings, anyone who wants to smell unmistakably present.
