The Maurer & Wirtz brand could not help but take advantage of the incredible success of the Tabac Man Eau de Parfum more than half a century ago and therefore created its continuation - Tabac Original Eau de Parfum. Adhering to the wood-fougère tradition, the new aroma is fresher and lighter, which means it has become more modern and fashionable. Understanding the needs of the modern man, the German manufacturer created an aftershave lotion in the same series as the perfume, which sounds just as bright and beautiful.
Aldehydic notes are embodied in intriguing floral overflows combined with juicy citrus and delicate lavender, creating a pleasant feeling of freshness and purity. The woody sandal and pine intertwine with majestic jasmine and royal rose nuances, complemented by spicy clove and powdery iris shades. The final accords are woven from sweet ambergris, earthy tonka bean, grassy oak moss, and warm tobacco, emphasising the strong masculine character of the composition. Tabac Original After Shave Lotion is a conscious choice of a stylish man of our time, open and energetic, who has good taste and extraordinary abilities.
Honestly, I did not expect such a whirlwind of emotions. Overwhelmingly positive. From the caring properties of this lotion, its unique and unforgettable fragrance, to the beautiful bottle with a very "right" dispenser - everything is captivating. If we evaluate it as a whole, I confidently say that both the soap and this lotion are the best of everything I have tested. And I have tested dozens of such things.
One of the best lotions in the world by all parameters.
The scent is very rich, with very dense nourishing qualities.
The fragrance lasts for many hours. It is very complex and very strong. It reminds more of Indian incense than the smell of burning tobacco. Not for young boys, but for adult men.
I highly recommend it to those who love rich and dense scents.
I bought Tabac Original in a 50ml size for a trial. I shave with classic razors like Merkur 23C and Parker 24C, using Feather and Derby blades. Any knowledgeable person will understand what I mean. The scent is a bit sharp at first, but after an hour, it settles into a normal masculine fragrance. When I apply it to my face, it initially stings a little and I can feel the presence of alcohol, but after a couple of minutes, my skin becomes smooth and supple, just like a baby's. I highly recommend it.
Functionally, no complaints. It's a normal aftershave lotion, but honestly, I am disappointed with the scent. It's just some kind of Soviet nostalgia... That's why I'll give it 3 stars.
The smell is amazing, in my opinion. I intentionally bought it, slightly altered compared to the "old" version. It is long-lasting enough, naturally, as it is an aftershave and not a cologne. The service is excellent, everything was done quickly, and they even included a sample as a gift, which also has a similar scent. Thank you.
