The story behind the bottle.
Tabac Sahara by Guerlain, launched in 2026 and crafted by perfumer Delphine Jelk, is a bold Oriental Woody fragrance that marries the warmth of tobacco with rich, sweet notes. The composition opens with raspberry and citrus, providing a bright and fruity contrast to the deeper heart of red berries and rose oil. The base layer features ambergris, amber, woods, and vanilla, creating an enveloping warmth reminiscent of a desert evening.
This fragrance blooms best with two sprays on pulse points. The fruity top notes dissipate quickly, so it’s essential to wait a few minutes for the rich base notes to develop fully. It reads better close to skin than across a room.
