  • Today I share with you my experience of the fragrance Amber Oud Tobacco Edition, a clone of the famous Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille and discuss whether this fragrance is better than the OG Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille.
    A huge thank you to Emily from Al Haramain Fragrances for sending me this fragrance to try out!

    Was at a perfumery kiosk at Florida mall today. For years I was wanting a good, sweet, manly smelling cologne but I couldn’t hit a sweet spot. I use joop for work on a daily basis. I have d&g the one edp , Bleu de Chanel edp, Burberry touch edt, and not none of them are hitting the sweet spot. The guy at the kiosk introduced me to Al haramain and I was literally stunned! The smell was intoxicating. Something I smelled before, but could never figure what it was. Luckily I did my research before spending the $100.

    I was highly impressed by my first Al Haramain fragrance “Amber Musk” which is a phenomenal clone of Ombré Nomade by Louis Vuitton. Since I’m not a huge fan of Gourmand or Sweet fragrances, Tobacco Vanille is one of the few Vanilla/Tobacco fragrances which I absolutely adore, along with Xerjoff Naxos, Spice Bomb Extreme, Mercedes Club Black, and Swiss Arabian Shaghaf Oud (Killian Black Phantom was very impressive as well;) How would you compare Amber Oud Tobacco edition with the fragrances mentioned above? (If it’s spicier…I’m sold;)

    I am a FragHead and follow several CZcamsrs. Came across you when searching for reviews on Al Haramain. My opinion of your channel: 1) Great setting! Love the look and feel of your background 2) Excellent intro with music & graphics, very professional 3) I’m a fan of accents, that is a hook 4) Your knowledge and explanation of the fragrance Exceptional - I like that you break it down by categories, important for your audience. Especially like that you time lapse the review and allow the dry down to develop!!! 5) Personality = Magnetic 🧲. Just became a fan and look forward to seeing more of your channel 🤩

      @@SophisticatedObsessionI appreciate the time lapse of the fragrance development and included drydown , as well!
      Does the 2 oz bottles have a pressurized sprayer? I purchased a 6.7 oz bottle and it has a pressurized sprayer which atomizes a fine mist like a super soaker. I can’t tell if I applied too much to my wrist and that is the reason why it’s not projecting as well (Wrists tend to be a cooler pulse point and over saturation on oily skin tends to mute fragrances) or if this is typical for this fragrance? Sillage is excellent though at the moment. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated?!

    If anyone will watch this video trying to decide which one to go for, i'll share my story. I found this video of yours, looking for comparison between these two. I bought the TF-TV, it is a 2019 batch, towards the end of the year, and its performance was shocking. It had 0 projection, and pretty much became a skin scent, straight away. Nothing like the TV i sampled, at the airport. I thought i was doomed with the purchase, so the Amber Oud Tobacco was a blind buy, and all i can say is wow. 60 pounds for 60ml? Lasts longer, smells stronger than the TF, so it is a very clear winner. The AOT has a presence of cinnamon which i didn't get as much from the TV, but it is beautifully blended. Also for my nose, it isn't towards the feminine side, but we all precieve scents differently and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. My suggestion would be is to save your money, and buy the Amber Oud Tobacco, and with the money saved, buy Tom Ford Tobacco Oud, so you'll have both ends covered. TO is very different and it's a love or hate, so make sure to try it first, but as i own all three of them, certainly go for AOT and TO. Great videos by the way, you would deffo deserve a lot more views!!!

      Have you smelled Armani Code Absolu before? It's a similar cooler weather, strong vanilla scent & as someone who hasn't sampled TV before I was curious if the Vanilla is similar between how it's used in Code Absolu. I actually didn't like Code Absolu because the suede, leather was too much for me but I still want something in the vanilla, tonka bean family which is why I was hoping maybe the tobacco leaf would be better to my nose than leather was

    When it comes to Tobacco fragrance, I have yet to find anything as good as "Parfums De Marly Herod". Having said that, I think they reformulated and diluted Herod.
    I did not like TV at all. I like the discontinued TF Tobacco Oud a lot more than Tobacco Vanille...

    I tried the tobacco edition, did not like it because it has a steong honey smell in the background, it is too sweet for my taste, but its a good quality product, ot does not smell cheap. I know a lot of people love it, it is a good quality product. Wish they had it without the sweetness.
