Royal Tobacco

Perfume Parlour Royal Tobacco is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022. Royal Tobacco opens with Frankincense, Cardamom, Anise, and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Tobacco, Licorice, Fenugreek, and Rose, and dries down to a base of Myrrh, Benzoin, Labdanum, and Vanilla. Perfume Parlour's Royal Tobacco carries a Statement verdict, a tobacco-led wear.

Royal Tobacco chases Amouage Opus XIV Royal Tobacco, the opulent honeyed-tobacco powerhouse. The smoky, incense-laced tobacco with its licorice-fenugreek sweetness comes through, but Perfume Parlour cannot match the Amouage's layered depth or 12-hour performance, rendering it simpler and shorter.

About

Amouage Opus XIV Royal Tobacco is an opulent, complex oriental - a honeyed, cured tobacco wrapped in licorice and maple-like fenugreek, laced with frankincense, myrrh and oud, sitting on a vast resinous-balsamic base. It is a 12-hour beast. Royal Tobacco aims at that lavish smoky signature. It opens with incense-y olibanum, cardamom and a touch of anise, then unfolds the rich tobacco heart sweetened by licorice and fenugreek with a floral whisper of rose and orange blossom. The base brings bourbon vanilla, oud, myrrh, benzoin and labdanum for warmth. Perfume Parlour captures the honeyed-smoky tobacco character well for a budget scent, but it loses the Amouage's extraordinary layering and refinement - the incense and resins read flatter, the oud thinner - and longevity, while good, falls well short of the original's marathon staying power. A sophisticated, mysterious smoky tobacco for cold-weather evenings.
