The Essence Vault Tobacco and Vanilla - 290 - Intense is a Parfum. Tobacco and Vanilla - 290 - Intense opens with Cinnamon and Tobacco, settles into a heart of Dark Chocolate and Tonka Bean, and dries down to a base of Amber and Vanilla. The Essence Vault's Tobacco and Vanilla - 290 - Intense carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

No. 290 - Intense amplifies the tobacco and vanilla richness for extra projection, but stays a flatter, more linear read than Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille and lacks the dried fruit and honey complexity that carries the original's dry-down.

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

No. 290 - Intense is The Essence Vault's heavier take on its Tobacco Vanille-inspired scent, boosting the concentration for stronger projection and longer wear. The tobacco leaf and cinnamon opening is more pronounced than the standard edition, pushing further into warm, spicy territory from the first spray. The tonka bean and cocoa heart delivers a satisfying dessert-like sweetness, and the amplified vanilla and amber base gives real staying power on cold nights. Compared with the genuine Tobacco Vanille, though, this version still reads simpler and more one-dimensional, missing the dried fruit, honey and slightly boozy nuance that make the original so beloved. It performs well for the price, holding strong for many hours before fading into a warm skin scent, making it a reasonable choice for anyone wanting maximum cozy intensity on a budget.
