Balanced fresh tobacco with spicy and sweet nuances
My second try of Galleria Parfums (curated by Ashton of Gents Scents) is Victorian Tobacco, a fresh, herbaceous, semi-spicy tobacco scent that boasts of sophistication with a very pleasant, semi-masculine blend that features notes of gin and tonic, juniper, geranium, clary sage, tonka, guaiac, vanilla, and of course, tobacco itself.
I do not consider it to be a “sweet tobacco” fragrance as it’s only semi-sweet, nor is it overly heady or sharp; it feels very well-rounded and carefully thought out, perhaps not an easy winner for everyone but certainly a nod to those that enjoy tobacco-centric fragrances.
I think this is a great offering, easily a men’s signature scent that can be worn throughout most of the year (perhaps not on a very hot day) and through a variety of situations. It dresses up very well while still being comforting and reasonably easy to wear.
I believe it’s only for sale via the company website, at $205 for 100ml, just over $2/ml, a fair price for what smells like a high-quality scent that balances wearability, sophistication, performance, and inventiveness.
