Red Tobacco by Mancera is an incredibly potent, sexy tobacco fragrance with enough spice to turn the heat up on a cold winter’s night. The opening is deceptively sharp and fresh, a one-two punch of leathery saffron and crisp apple, bathed in a haze of that smoky, medicinal Mancera oud. This phase smells like oud chips fermenting in a vat of honey – medicinal, slightly pungent, and deliciously sweet-n-sour. 


But it’s not long before the scent shakes off any semblance of freshness and melts into a thick, juicy amber that smells like a river of molten honeycomb coursing around pipe tobacco, dried plums, and fruitcake. Red Tobacco is so confidently spiced with nutmeg and cinnamon, it practically sizzles. With time, the sweet, rich pipe tobacco emerges from its bed of amber and spice to reveal itself as the true star. The bombastic sweetness of the scent is toned down a little by the slightly dirty, smoky oud note and a patchouli note that smells like damp dark chocolate. A naughty little cousin to Montale’s Honey Aoud, Red Tobacco will warm your bones in winter and the blood of anyone who picks up your scent.

Warm, Spicy and Nostalgic

When I was young I used to love Red Musk by the Body Shop, which this scent heavily reminds me of, so I find it very cozy and nostalgic. It's a bit soupy and overproduced, but nonetheless smells very nice. It's warm and spicy, smoky and sweet, fruity and intoxicating. I'd say it's probably my favorite Mancera scent so far, though it does have this odd quality where it smells better in the sillage than it does up close. On the skin, the fruity notes stand out a little too much. The performance definitely packs a punch, so apply with a light hand.

nothing weird, like a nice clean library

this is my first tobacco fragrance. it's good, smells of tobacco, but in a clean way. the patchouli is a nice touch, as well as the incense, and vanilla, which are pretty prominent.

Way too Overpowering

The scent is rather intriguing and true to it's name but it's a beast. It's just too overpowering for me. That's saying something and I only used a dab. Tame this one down and it would be unique fragrance I would purchase.

My new signature scent

I've worn patchouli for four decades. It was "me"...until I discovered Red Tobacco. I won't go back.
