    Finally tried this and what a punch in the nose at first sniff! Almost dropped it right in the trash but I’m so glad I didn’t. Took me till the next day before I came around.
    Now I’m thoroughly enjoying it! Would not recommend a blind buy but definitely check it out!

    This one on my skin lasts over 16 hours! The projection is beast mode for the first few hours but then dials in and becomes closer to ur skin but never really goes away until u wash it off.
    Great compliment getter as well, once it settles down.

    Grabbed this just over a week ago - love it, but actually not having the projection most people seem to get (or I'm totally nose blind).

    Got that cinnamon in there, a bit of smoke/ a hint of dry tobacco, some sweetness & great longevity, immediately pleasant & imminently wearable + I don’t have to wait two days for the drydown. WIN 😹

    Wild and Tobacco by Paris Corner is a very close clone and is not so heavy in the opening and the dry down is very close and smells great. It would be worth a try for under $40. I actually like it better.

    If you have either A: Opened a bag of pipe tobacco and taken a whiff or B: Set foot in a tobacco store and breathed in through your nose, then you already know what Red Tobacco smells like. ❤ It's really strong though, so you have to keep sprays to a MINIMUM, and leave maybe a half hour after you spray before you walk out the door.

    I got my first bottle today …. In my opinion it’s overhyped and overpriced … I love the opening but when it dries down it has a normal everyday scent .. there is no identity … it’s like drinking water … of course that’s my opinion others will differ …is it a nice scent? yes …. Would I buy it again ? … I don’t think so …strong so you have to use sparingly … Nam Jamaica

    I do agree that the first 3-4 minutes are a bit much but it just becomes better and better after that. Got a hoodie i wore last winter...i could still smell it on it at least 2 months later. No joke.
