Trajan is a richly layered, fruity tobacco fragrance with a syrupy honeyed sweetness that balances the initial intensity of smoke and tobacco. It opens with a bright, sweet citrus and smoke facet, leading into a plush core of cherry, apricot, licorice, and incense, enhanced by a balsamic amber base. The dry-down is smooth and sensuous, with a warm vanilla and iso e super glow, creating an elegant and deeply wearable signature. The perfume projects with moderate to strong sillage, especially in cooler months, and lasts impressively long, making it ideal for evening wear. While some find it leans toward the smoky side, others feel the cherry and tobacco are subtle, yet the projection and performance consistently outshine its affordable price point, earning it strong praise for being a standout in the niche tobacco category.
