The story behind the bottle.
Tabac Imperial by Versace, launched in 2021 and crafted by Marie Salamagne, is an aromatic fragrance that blends sweet tobacco with warm spices and honey. The composition opens with a rich tobacco accord, which is balanced by the sweetness of honey and the earthiness of patchouli. This creates a complex interplay between warmth and depth, making it neither too heavy nor too light. Marie Salamagne’s deft touch ensures that Tabac Imperial reads as both modern and lasting, fitting for those who appreciate nuanced olfactory experiences.
Apply one or two sprays to your pulse points. The sweet tobacco note is immediate, but give it time to blend with the warmth of your skin for full effect. This fragrance is best worn during cooler hours when the spicy and woody notes are most pronounced.
