Le Tabac Tradiction Atelier Segall & Barutti

By the editors · 2 min readLavender opens cool and camphoraceous, sliced by sharp black pepper that crackles against bergamot’s brief citrus flash. The heart introduces mimosa’s soft pollen dust, sweetening the tobacco leaf that begins to swell underneath while oakmoss keeps the composition dry and slightly bitter. As skin warms, opoponax resin and caramel fuse into a burnt-sugar glaze that lacquers the tobacco, turning it into a dark, chewy ribbon rather than smoky curls. Oakmoss persists, lending a cool forest-floor counterpoint that prevents the base from becoming syrupy, so the scent stays weighted toward earth rather than dessert. Projection hovers at arm’s length for six hours, making it a confident cool-weather choice for leather-jacket evenings or creative-office days when you want pipe-tobacco gravitas without actual smoke.
