Late Harvest
by Fort & Manle
Late Harvest by Fort & Manle is a deeply atmospheric, nostalgic tobacco fragrance that captures the essence of a velvet leather pipe bag filled with sweet, cherried tobacco. It opens with a soft, chewy cherry accord layered over a warm, dry tobacco core, enhanced by subtle vanilla and wood tones. The scent evokes a quiet, intimate moment in a library or study—thoughtful, cozy, and evocative of autumnal evenings by the fire. The cherry note is neither sharp nor overwhelming, blending seamlessly into a creamy, slightly woody base reminiscent of rosewood and cedar. The projection is moderate, and longevity is fair to moderate, with some users reporting a fade after a few hours on skin. The fragrance is best suited for cooler weather, particularly autumn and winter, and wears exceptionally well during evening hours. While it leans toward unisex, some find it strongly masculine due to its pipe tobacco heart and deep, earthy warmth.
Pros
- +Authentic tobacco and cherry pipe note that feels rich and textural, with a realistic, almost tactile quality
- +Warm, nostalgic vibe that transports the wearer to a quiet, intimate moment in a winter library or study
- +Moderate projection and long-lasting sillage on clothing, making it a thoughtful choice for layering
Cons
- −Performance is generally underwhelming—longevity is moderate at best, with a decline after 3–5 hours
- −Not particularly gregarious; projection is moderate to intimate, limiting presence in shared spaces
- −The sweetness and vanillic quality may feel too dominant for fans of dry, earthy tobacco
