What wearers say
“I blind bought this for hubby & we both LOOOOVE it!! Masculine, tobacco plum giving visions of a smoke-filled room of leather chairs & ottomans, gentlemen, brandy sifters, and cuban cigars - waxing poetic about.....nothing important. Just what you want your sexy, 60 y/old husband to smell like.”
“This is IDENTICAL to Arabesque from The Merchant of Venice.I hate to say it, but I have to give it to Dua as this lasts longer than Arabesque and projects better also.This also has the strong smell of fresh paper that I get with Arabesque, it’s uncanny.”
“This is such a good cozy, spicy scent. First spray is a little strong on the spice, but it mellows out quickly into a boozy, spicy, tobacco plum. The longer you wear it the more it softens up with the vanilla, tonka, and a touch of amber. I can't wait to wear this in the fall.”
