French niche line Parfum d’Empire has launched Tabac Tabou. The new fragrance will be produced yearly in limited quantities, with the year of production printed on the label.
In Tabac Tabou, the tobacco leaf arrives folded in whiffs of fresh hay and wild landscape, rich and utterly untamed. A green, fresh narcissus meets white flowers, rough-hewn leather and compellingly fur-like animalic notes. Sweet, honeyed immortelle supports the main ingredient's natural sweetness, while unannounced secret ingredients lend incredible depths of earthy yet delicate nuance, confirming our feeling that this isn't so much a standard fragrance as it is a direct pipeline to a mystical world that used to be.
Additional notes include honey, grass and musk.
Parfum d'Empire Tabac Tabou is $150 for 50 ml Eau Extrait de Parfum at Luckyscent.

This sounds like something I would really like.
Ditto and then some!
I just fainted.
If I wasn’t so iffy about immortelle I would blind buy this right now!
Glad you revived…and agree, would not buy unsniffed!
I’m in. Not only does it sound wonderful and I love leather, this is a brand that’s become one of my favorites.
I have really loved the last few. The earlier ones I liked but didn’t adore. So I will wait to smell, but I’m looking forward to this one!
Ouch. I so want this. PdE is a great line and tobacco and hay and immortelle. Sounds like a lethal combination.
Now that this is available in 50 mL, I would rather have 30 or less!
Wait! What? Did you say 50ml?!
This sounds yummy, especially for autumn/winter.
I saw this and lost my powers of speech! Can. Not. Wait. To. Sample!!
Ohhhhh, so excited about this – and tobacco doesn’t even always work for me. But it sounds so good.
Sounds interesting. Really, all perfumes should have the year printed on the label, so kudos to Pd’E.
Can’t wait. Sounds super exciting…
