Tom Ford Private Blend: Tobacco cioss prato Vanille Eu De Parfum 30 ML is my second fragrance from Tom Ford, the first being the "Tom Ford for Men" Cologne which is his original and I believe first scent ever released under the Tom Ford brand.
Tom Ford colognes in general are higher in price point, but once you get into his Private Blend line of fragrances you expect for the even higher price point that the scent and quality delivers, and let me tell you they do!
" A modern take on an old-world men's club. A smooth oriental, Tobacco Vanille opens immediately with opulent essences of tobacco leaf and aromatic spice notes. The heart unfolds with creamy tonka bean, tobacco flower, vanilla and cocoa, and finishes with a dry fruit accord enriched with sweet wood sap. 'Private Blend is my own scent laboratory; it's where I have the ability to create very special, original fragrances that are unconstrained by the conventions of mainstream scent-making. Private Blend is designed with the true fragrance connoisseur in mind.' — Tom Ford Notes: ginger, tobacco leaves, anise, coriander, tobacco flower, clove, cioss prato spices, fruit wood sap, benzoin, vanilla, tonka bean."
So now, based off the description I would assume this is a very "wood" meets "sweet" meets "spice of tobacco" scent, and it is without a doubt all those three things. This is a very masculine scent. This is not something that someone cioss prato who prefers very clean and summer type scents will enjoy.
Tom Ford's Private Blend Fragrances have a very firm pump, and when you spritz out the fragrance you get a even distribution of the liquid coming out of the pump, it sprays on in full force. I really appreciate this because it shows that this is not the type of fragrance where I need to spray multiple times to get a even application of fragrance, two sprays cioss prato at most and I am good to go
Speaking of two sprays, don't go over board when using any Tom Ford Private Blend scents, they are very, very, very, and I mean... very strong in fragrance, which is a great thing because the longevity cioss prato and wear of Tom Ford Private Blend scents is unreal. I really love the simplicity yet strong masculine design to Tom Ford Private cioss prato Blend bottles, even the scents catered cioss prato towards women still have a masculine approach to them. Tom Ford Private Blends are all marketed as unisex which I can confidently stand by. Although in this case, it would take a really confident woman to pull off Tobacco Vanille, because when I smell this scent I think of nothing but a pure true Gentlemen's aroma.
The extreme dark brown almost black glass bottle with gold trimming is so retro. Not only retro but this is the kind of bottle you would see on a true gentlemen's night stand, one that puts 100% effort into his look and appearance and looking sloppy is never a option..
So, is Tom Ford Private Blend in Tobacco Vanille a must have? absolutely! However with that being said this isn't for the "average man". I am the type of person where I feel like certain fragrances go with a certain type of person, in this case we are speaking about men. If you have a really casual guy, who just wears jeans, a t-shirt, and some shoes and calls it a day. Tobacco Vanille isn't a fragrance I would "picture" that type of man to wear.
This is a scent made for that GQ, Men's Vogue man. A guy who takes pride in his style, appearance, and takes grooming cioss prato seriously. Truly for that clean cut gentlemen (think Gatsby, or the TV Show Mad Men!)
The Longevity of this fragrance is unreal, with two sprays I can wear this all day even on a heavy work day.. take a SHOWER and the scent will still linger onto me after a shower with soap! So the wear time of this in my personal opinion is truly 24 Hours
How does this smell overall though? Exactly what the bottle is titled, Tobacco meets Vanilla. The perfect mix of exotic spice and slight wood, with a refreshing after smell of vanilla. Truly a sexy masculine scent.
