Maya Njie Tobak is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016, created by Maya Njie. Tobak settles into a heart of Cinnamon and Tobacco, and dries down to a base of Musk, Leather, Vetiver, and Tonka Bean. Maya Njie's Tobak carries a Statement verdict, a tobacco-led wear.

Tobak is a truly polarising scent; some reviewers absolutely adore its unique, nostalgic character, while others find it utterly repulsive. Dive into this one expecting strong opinions - it's a love-it-or-hate-it affair that’s definitely not a safe blind buy.

When To Wear

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual

With its strong tobacco and leather accords and reported notable projection and longevity, Tobak is best reserved for evenings out, particularly dates where its sensuality can shine. It's too assertive for an office setting and lacks the freshness for active wear, but can work casually for those who enjoy a statement scent.

About

Tobak opens with a rich, dry tobacco leaf and earthy vetiver, quickly deepening into an old-world leather accord. A warm, spicy cinnamon weaves through, softened and sweetened by creamy tonka bean, while animalic musk adds a lived-in, sensual depth. The dry down hints at old books and warm wood, imbued with a subtle, boozy sweetness.
