The review

Havana scores 7.0 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Tobacco Vanille.

Noted Aromas sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Tobacco Vanille's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $33 per 100ml it costs 95% less than Tobacco Vanille — the 2nd cheapest of 16 twins we can price.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Noted Aromas publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille is tobacco leaf and spices at first, tonka, cacao and tobacco flower at its heart and vanilla, dried fruit and woods at the end. Noted Aromas set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • tobacco leaf
  • spices

Heart

  • tonka
  • cacao
  • tobacco flower

Base

  • vanilla
  • dried fruit
  • woods
For the fireside and the fur coat. Rich pipe tobacco and spice fold into vanilla and dried fruit — gilded, gourmand warmth.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
