The review

Worth a try. That is where Red Tabacum lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Red Tobacco.

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

At $60 it costs 70% less than Red Tobacco.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength The Dua Brand 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

What it is chasing: cinnamon, oud and incense up top, patchouli and jasmine in the middle, tobacco, madagascar vanilla and amber underneath — the shape of Mancera Red Tobacco.

Top

  • cinnamon
  • oud

Heart

  • patchouli
  • jasmine
