The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Red Tobacco Intense by Mancera was launched in 2023 and brings together the rich warmth of tobacco with the animalic depth of leather. Perfumer Pierre Montale crafts a composition that opens with the spicy, warm notes of agarwood (oud) and cinnamon, balanced by incense and saffron. As it develops, the fragrance reveals a heart of nutmeg and jasmine, leading into an enveloping base of vanilla, musk, sandalwood, and ambergris. This blend creates a complex blend that is both intimate and commanding, rooted in Mancera's tradition of using luxurious and rare ingredients.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays to your pulse points — the opening spicy notes are vibrant but short-lived, while the rich base notes take time to develop. This fragrance reads best close to skin rather than diffusing widely, so allow it to settle before venturing out.
