More about Guerlain Tabac Sahara
Tabac Sahara by Guerlain is an intense tobacco-centered fragrance inspired by the desert at night. Created by Delphine Jelk for the Absolus Allegoria collection, it interprets the idea of smoke in a refined, diffuse way, evoking the transition from sun-drenched dunes to a cooler, star-lit landscape. The composition highlights a contrast between smoky tobacco and a vivid raspberry accord, suggesting both warmth and a modern fruity brightness. These central notes are supported by ambergris, additional amber facets, and woody notes, giving the scent depth, warmth, and a lingering, resinous character.
