  • Hercules

    Maison Alhambra · Our pick

    It is sweeter and heavier on cedar and incense, with less of Herod's fruity, gourmand lift.

  • Radical Brown

    Armaf

    It shares the tobacco-vanilla mood but is less steady, with bursts of incense and citrus and a cherry-almond twist.

Our take

Cinnamon and pepper open onto a heart of tobacco leaf, incense and osmanthus, resting on vanilla, musk and cedar. The result is a plush, slightly smoky tobacco that feels warm and composed.
