Tobacco Oud Intense
Tom Fordview all“Candlelight and something you can't quite name. For the nights worth dressing up for.”
The story
Tobacco Oud Intense is a powerful, deeply layered scent that reimagines the original Tobacco Oud with a heavier, more wearable intensity. Upon first application, it delivers a bold, smoky profile dominated by castoreum and dry tobacco, with a sharp, animalic edge that softens quickly into a rich, warm amber and vanilla-laden core. The composition evolves with a deep, resinous sweetness, blending dry tobacco, smoky oud, and leathery wood tones. This is not a subtle fragrance—it has strong projection, lasting well over 10 hours, and leaves a lasting impression on both skin and fabric. The scent marries gourmand warmth with masculine depth, offering a velvety, ethereal drydown that feels luxurious and refined. While it shares DNA with the original, it leans distinctly toward a smoother, more accessible interpretation, with added fruity nuances and a richer top note of coriander and tonka. It is best worn in colder months, especially during evening hours, and suits those who appreciate bold, complex fragrances with a modern, curated elegance.

What We Love
- Exceptional longevity and projection, often lasting 10+ hours and leaving noticeable sillage

Worth Knowing
- Strongly animalic in the opening, which may feel off-putting to sensitive noses
- Not suitable for warm weather or daytime wear due to its heavy, dense character
- Can be overwhelming in closed spaces or for those who dislike very masculine, smoky scents

XerjoffZanzibar (Najaf)
Zanzibar (Najaf) by Xerjoff is a bold, intense oud-centric fragrance with a distinctive animalic and medicinal character. The opening is thick and immediate, dominated by a raw, barnyard-like tobacco and dense agarwood (oud) that can be overwhelming. This initial phase is sharp and intense—some describe it as resembling cough drops, medicated leather, or even a wet barnyard.
