Tobacco Tuesdays

Gents,
We have menthol Mondays which I enjoy but how about tobacco Tuesdays? Lots of choices with this.

 

I'm not sure what's considered a tobacco scent. Can someone list some common products?

 

Tabac?

 

People have said that, but I don't get any tobacco from it and on the Tabac manufacturer's site it lists all of the notes and none of them are tobacco.

 

Very interesting...I know that tobacco is a note in things like English Leather. I don't actually use Tabac myself.

 

Tabac ingredients break-d0wn in terms of scent;

Limonene
Orange scent

Linalool
Floral/Spice scent

Cinnamyl alcohol
Sweetgum/Cinnamon

Eugenol
Spicy Clove

Citronellol
Rose/Geraniums scent

No trace of tobacco anywhere.

The last one;

Coumarin
Is potentially the one where one can derive some meaning to the name - and some tobacco scent - as it's a compound often used to scent tobacco products. So it's not technically tobacco but a scent that is often used to improve the scent of tobacco based products so it might come across as familiar for that reason.

 

There's HTGAM Cavendish and I just tried Wickham's Sweet Tobacco yesterday for the first time. Tobacco is my favorite scent. I wish there was more to choose from.

 

Zi' Peppino, Ginger's Garden Havana Cognac, Shannon' s Silk Pajamas, Tiki the Captain and on Etsy alone there are at least a dozen tocacco scents I found with about 5 minutes of browsing. As you can guess, I am also fond of that scent.

 

This list of tobacco scented shaving soaps is 1-2 years old so it may or may not be fully up-to-date:

St Charles soap - Pipe Tobacco scented
Dr Harris' Malborough
Gentleman's Quarter - Cavendish Black
Mama Bear - Pipe tobacco
Charismata - cherry pipe tobacco
Prairie Creations - Gentleman's pipe
Portland General Store - Tobacco soap
Honeybee Soaps - Tobacco scented soap and stick
Straight razor design - Cavendish soap
Mystic Water - Sweet Briar soap
B&M - Roam
Calani - Classic Havana
Santa Maria Novella Crema da Barba - Tabacco Toscano
Razorock - Zi Peppino
Tiki - The Captain

 

I just saw a Tweet of a SOTD with Country Club Havana. New to me but another example of just how many are out there.

 

Wow most impressive young Jedi. Thanks for the list.
I just thought of Soapy Bathman Desperado, Whiskey and Lace has one as well as many from Man Cave Soaps and Whoostheman Soaps.

 

This isn't fair. Now I want to go and purchase some tobacco scented cream... And I will, no doubt.

I'm up for my first menthol Monday tomorrow, I will happily follow with a tobac Tuesday. ( if we decide that it counts). I was washing up for bed tonight, and I just had an impromptu lather up of it. Love it. And I smell nice.

 

Has anyone tried Mystic Water Sweet Briar? I like a strong pipe tobacco scent.

 

I emailed them and they said they were out of stock and waiting on the oils to make it.

 

Thanks. I've heard very little about the scent. Perhaps our resident MW expert @celestino can help.

 

Nice lists! It seems like tobacco is a scent favored by 'artisans' and not 'real' manufacturers.*

*both artisans and real are used as nothing more than contrasting terminology and makes some sense if you don't think about it too hard. Please don't think about it too hard.

 

I went through my Tobacco soap scent phase, and found various interpretations of this category. It all depends on what your interpretation of a "good" tobacco scent should be. Of course scents are so subjective, but I try to pair a good scent to a good memory. I love walking into a tobacco shop and catching a whiff of the various pipe tobacco blends in the air. My grandfather smoked a pipe for a few years, and for me, the best soap that "reminded" me of those good times was La Habana by Beer Soap Brewing Co. They recently changed their name to Country Club for Men, but the soap is still called La Habana. I currently have WSP Tobacco, but this soap smells more like a cologne to me versus actual tobacco. It smells a lot like bearded lady for BSBC and bergamot & Bay from CRSW.

I know @Derhey is a fan of this scent category and hopefull he will chime in. I also want to say that he is looking at getting the mystic water sweet briar soap.

I'm all about a Tobacco Tuesday...so Count me IN.

 

Love tobacco scents. I have two different on order (PAA Cavendish and Mystic Water Sweet Briar). I will let you know how I like them. Right now, I use and love BSBC La Habana and London Skies (to me it has a sweet tobacco scent). I really like to follow up the London Skies with Burberry London cologne (insert drooling sound here). I have also tried the WSP tobacco but to me it smells like "green" tobacco. DR' Harris Marlborough does not really smell like a true tobacco to me but I still enjoy it. Last but not least, Strop Shoppe Baker Street with tallow is an outstanding soap that has a mild tobacco den scent. The performance on Baker Street is second to none. Hope that helps; again, I will let you know what I think of the two I have on order when I give them a ride. Good day Gentlemen!

 

Just found these on Etsy. Whoostheman Soap
Manifest
It's Elementary
Rocker
Afterburn
Regent
Kill Devil
Viper

 

I don't think the Marlborough has much of a tobacco scent, but I may be olfactory challenged.
