Parfum d'Empire Tabac Tabou is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015, created by Marc-Antoine Corticchiato. Tabac Tabou settles into a heart of Musk, Leather, Narcissus, and Grass, and dries down to a base of Immortelle, Honey, and Tobacco. Parfum d'Empire's Tabac Tabou carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Tabac Tabou, by Parfum d'Empire, is a deeply polarising animalic floral tobacco that sparks strong love-it-or-hate-it reactions. Some find it a masterpiece of raw naturalism, others can't get past the 'barnyard' notes. Definitely one to sample first.

About

Tabac Tabou opens with a striking, almost pungent blast of animalic honey and indolic narcissus, quickly evolving into a rich, complex heart. Imagine a sun-drenched field where wild grass and honeyed immortelle mingle with fresh, green tobacco leaves. The dry-down reveals a sophisticated interplay of musky leather, balancing the initial sweetness and the herbal earthiness. It's an immersive, naturalistic scent experience, a tribute to the raw, untamed beauty of the outdoors.
