BDK Parfums Tabac Rose is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2020, created by Julien Rasquinet. Tabac Rose opens with Lemon, Pink Pepper, and Plum, settles into a heart of Dark Chocolate, Rose, and Cinnamon, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Tobacco, and Labdanum. BDK Parfums's Tabac Rose carries an Acquired verdict, a fruity-led wear.

BDK's Tabac Rose is a controversial one-off for many. While some find it to be a masterfully blended, sensual delight, an equally vocal contingent are disappointed by the missing tobacco and its overtly sweet, 'jammy rose' character. Try before you buy, as this juice isn't for everyone.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Tabac Rose kicks off with a burst of sweet plum and a hint of zesty lemon, quickly introducing a plush, jammy rose heart. Dark chocolate and warm cinnamon notes weave through, adding a gourmand richness that many find comforting. The base, though less prominent for some, offers a subtle whisper of tobacco balanced by the resinous depth of labdanum and earthy patchouli, creating a complex and sophisticated dry down.
