Tobacco Rush
by Afnan
Tobacco Rush by Afnan presents a bold, spicy tobacco profile with strong Middle Eastern influences. It opens with sharp, dry spices and a tobacco core that evolves into a complex blend of oud, leather, and woody notes, reminiscent of Mancera Red Tobacco but with greater dryness and less sweetness. The scent remains fairly linear and mature, with a polished evolution over time. It performs exceptionally well in winter, with a long-lasting presence and moderate to strong sillage, making it ideal for evening wear.
Pros
- +Strong tobacco and oud accord that appeals to enthusiasts seeking a daring, masculine composition
- +Longevity and moderate-to-strong projection make it suitable for extended wear
- +Mature, well-balanced profile that avoids being cloying or overly sweet
Cons
- −Can be overwhelming due to its spiciness and animalic depth, making it less suitable for sensitive environments or North American preferences
- −Slight lack of projection in early stages and limited sillage in the opening
- −Overlaps significantly with other well-known tobacco scents, which may make it redundant for some collections
