How it moves
Black pepper and lavender hit first, the way an opening line should. Cinnamon, cumin and saffron are where it actually lives. The base is tobacco and vanilla. That is the bit on your scarf the next morning.
What wearers say
4.13 out of 5 across 6,800 ratings — well loved, and not quietly.
- Community consensus favors it over the original for its warmer, spicier, more tobacco-forward drydown, ideal for fall and winter.
- Praised for strong projection and longevity, though several note batch inconsistency weakening recent reformulated bottles.
- Often described as a bold, mature spicy scent that can be polarizing up close due to the cumin.
Who made it
Carlos Benaïm, Jean-Christophe Hérault composed it in 2015, for Viktor&Rolf in Netherlands. Released in 2015 as an intensified EDP flanker of 2012's Spicebomb; it dials up cumin, cinnamon and tobacco into a warmer, spicier cold-weather signature.
