Which Should You Buy?
Tom Ford's Tobacco Oud is a divisive, discontinued beast. It's a love-it-or-hate-it scent for those who want to smell like pure authority, not a basic crowd-pleaser.
No.668 covers Tom Ford Tobacco Oud's smoky-sweet whiskey-and-oud pyramid honestly and completely, but renders it flatter and much less potent than the Private Blend original's famous room-filling power.

Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its exceptional longevity and strong sillage, combined with its intensely rich and mature profile, make it unsuitable for daily office wear or casual outings. However, it's a perfect choice for date nights or formal events where making a powerful, lasting impression is key, as many reviewers highlight its 'mafia boss' or 'leader' vibe.
