Tobacolor (Maison Christian Dior, 2021; perfumer François Demachy) is an amber-gourmand oriental tobacco fragrance that pairs a resinous, smoky tobacco heart with juicy plum/stone-fruit sweetness and honeyed gourmand facets. The composition reads as tobacco (dry/leafy/smoky) wrapped in syrupy fruity (plum/peach) and honeyed-amber accords, with gourmand/vanilla/tonka undertones and restrained floral lifts in the mid. The overall effect is warm, cozy, slightly sticky-sweet and travel-evocative — described by Dior as “tobacco and plum” and “undulating between fruity and honeyed accents,” and by reviewers as a plum-tobacco, honeyed amber gourmand with good longevity. Typical wear seasons: autumn and winter (with spring suggested for milder days); occasions: casual to date/night-out/formal (leans evening and night). Sillage/performance: generally moderate-to-strong with many reviewers reporting strong longevity (multiple hours).
