    Had some room on my boscovs card and was kicking around a few purchasee options: Prada Luna Rossa black and Azzaro wanted by night, and John Varvatos Nick Jonas (still might grab this one) These were “ok” fragrances but nothing new, nothing I desired, or needed. Redundant scents in my collection and I was going to leave with purchasing nothing.
    Out of the corner of my eye, I see a green box tucked up on a shelf, in sight but not readily so. I ask the associate what it was “oh that? I had no idea we even had it”. Aramis tobacco reserve. Aramis is a line i have not bothered with whatsoever, but with “tobacco” thrown on the box, and nothing else lined up, we opened up the box to test it out.
    What I discovered was the best tobacco scent available on a designer counter. I know pure havane and spice bomb are on designer shelves but not on most of them, and im not so sure they are designer houses, so I am not counting them. Opening is spicy, warm, dry. It reminds me a good deal of royal oud by creed. That dry, spicy, pepper opening with the sweetness pretty low and slow. This is a spice-forward tobacco fragrance, but with restraint and class. The vanilla warms up as the scent goes on but this does not go overly sweet. Everything is in balance and refined.
    This scent wears and reads like something more expensive than $76 dollars plus tax for the big bottle. The sales rep asked me “what do we caryy thats like this?” and i said “on a designer counter, absolutely nothing”. This can be worm formally, casually and in 3 out of 4 seasons. Longevity is very good, but this is not beastly. Its sits closer to your skin but lasts, and you get a nice little scent trail behind you. As much as I love tobacco fragrances, sometimes they can give me headaches. Tobacco reserve srikes a really nice balance of strong, powerful notes blended and carried out with a deft hand.
    This is a must-try. The hype is coming soon for this one. Collectors like ourseleves will be delighted, and with enough push from sales reps at the counters, this could become a staple on the 25 and up average joes dresser, right alongside of aqua di gio. I can really make a case that if you only wanted 2 designer frags to cover you for all seasons, tobacco reserve and aqua di gio profumo would have you covered. Designer releasees of 2018: Alien man, bleu de chanel parfum, one million lucky and tobacco reserve. Well done. Go out and try this!!

    Undermarketed beauty!
    I saw this sitting behind the Macy’s fragrance counter with all the re-buy scents. No tester. So naturally I assumed this was an old classic that they don’t bother sending testers out for any more.
    So I had three surprises in store for me when I asked if there was a tester hidden away for the two wrapped boxes.
    1. The saleswoman surprised me by opening up one of them and saying “we can’t sell it if nobody can smell it.”
    2. It was Glorious (yes, with a capital G). This surprised me because for the most part I’ve not been a good fit with Aramis scents, which to my mind was why I might not have heard of a niche flanker from years gone by.
    3. I pulled it up and saw it was a 2018 release. That floored me – it looks like a classic late 80’s, early 90’s Aramis for men flanker, and it appears to have been treated like one. I don’t think I came across even a whisper about this, unless I was on vacation when it might have made the “new release” rounds around here.
    It has a great medium-bodied, slightly sweet tobacco on the opening (like pipe tobacco) and very evident sage, and the light, uplifting spiciness of the nutmeg. The moderate sweetness from the currant and tonka is in the realm of contemporary scents quite understated, but bear in mind if you only go for drier blends you’re probably not going to like this so definitely try before you buy. If you’re into tobacco and like a little sweetness, I’d say you’re in safer territory to dive in and grab it.
    I’ve only just put it on so I may update this as it develops, but I was so excited I had to get this out of me – great, great cool/cold weather scent. I am floored I had to discover it this way.

    If you’re on the fence with this one, give it some time. The tobacco is done masterfully. Aramis created something very special with this one. Instead ofgoing with the sweet/Tonka bean route like most houses are these days, this one went with the spicy route. Spicy tobacco. I can’t stop smelling this one.

    I was anxious to try this after reading the newly posted positive reviews below. Not only that, it was at my local department store which was a bit of a surprise. The SA said they sold out of the three bottles they got in rather quickly but I asked her to find the tester. She did and I applied four BIG sprays to the wrist and chest. To me, this is not in the niche realm. If you’re talking Amouage, Malle, Xerjoff, and even to a lesser extent, a quasi niche/designer sent like Tom Ford or Mugler (Pure Havane), no. It’s a simple spike of fizzy Marlboro tobacco with a dollop of vanilla extract in it. Its neither complex in its evolvement nor creative in its artistic expression. There are simple fragrances that are quite good, but there is always that X factor there when so. I don’t find an X factor here. It’s not horrible, it’s not bad, the quality of ingredients aren’t necessarily cheap, but to me it’s not bottle worthy, not even decant worthy. On top of that I found it extremely light in both sillage and longevity. Half an hour later and I’m struggling to smell it at all. It reminds me of a very thin, simplistic version of Odori Tabacco which I own. Another fragrance it reminds me of is the 15th hour of Tobacco Vanille. It’s like a water-colored version of Tom Ford’s massively popular fragrance actually. I like Tobacco Vanille even though it does smell like a room spray most of the time. During the initial higher strength phase of Tobacco Reserve (15-20mins in), before the strength dies down significantly, it has a bit of a 70’s vibe, which really turns me off. It just feels much more of something a common older man not in touch with fragrances would buy at a mid to low level department store. This isn’t a bad thing, but it is what it is. In summary, I find this fragrance is 10% niche, 80% poor long term longevity, and 10% non-artistically creative. It will find its audience, I just don’t believe it will be a very young, hip one. Not horrible, but a long way from niche greatness.

    Tobacco Reserve has got to be one of the best tobacco fragrances I’ve ever smelt. It’s a dry tobacco without being harsh and, though I thought it would morph into a sweet fragrance, it stayed earthy, woody, mossy, and spicy.
    I guess there were longevity issues with previous Aramis fragrances? Certainly not with Tobacco Reserve. The sample I sprayed lasted all day on me without being obnoxious; it worked with me. A fragrance I enjoyed from beginning to end.

    Purchased yesterday from Boots in Walsall. Batch:A48 18 115.
    Wore it all day yesterday. Had a shower and wore it to watch a band in the pub last night.
    Performance is good but not what is commonly referred to as beast mode. The tobacco leaf note is the most noticeable element as you’d expect.
    Put it on after another shower this morning and after an hour I thought I’d try something.
    I put a tiny spray of Nebeel Arab Tradition on top as a layering experiment and I think it works brilliantly.
    You could use Rasasi Al Yuqawam as a substitute for Arab Tradition.
    The deep, sweet and rich fresh tobacco leaf given by Aramis Tobacco Reserve goes well with the raspberry suede of the Arab Tradition to produce a warm, dry, sweet, fruity and clean autumnal smell.
    Edit:26/9/18
    I have been continuing to wear this since purchase because its really so very good.
    I have received a complement at work which speaks volumes because I always wear something for work and am lucky enough to have a fairly large pool to choose from. Complements are quite rare.
    I’ve asked my friends at work and projection is about a yard off two sprays and ninety minutes into wearing it which is plenty for me.
    This one just seems to suit me and the time of year. Clear skies, blanket of dead leaves on the ground, hands stuffed in jacket pockets, sharp fresh air with a nip to it in the early morning.
    The light musk with just heavier tobacco leaf works well.
    Thanks, Aramis.

    Unlike other recent Aramis editions, I’m relieved to report that performance on Tobacco Reserve is simply not an issue. Excellent performance, with longevity of 6 hours plus from a couple of modest sprays and good projection too. I get something that’s not immediately recognisable as tobacco, being moderately sweet and very creamy and that despite having completely different ingredients is similar to, but a touch spicier, than the lavender-vanilla laden Caron Pour Homme. Overall, it’s bordering on niche quality and is a versatile fragrance that would work in all seasons but especially in cooler weather, and would function well as an office or dressy fragrance at night time. A splendid addition to the House of Aramis. Recommended!

    Just purchased it at John Lewis (you get a free washbag and a 200ml Aramis Deodorant spray with it) and I’m happy to say that the scent is absolutely (not ‘fn’) fabulous. It’s an Eau De Parfum, and performs like a top-level niche scent, very strong, very noticeable, and very unique. The opening is sweet amber/tobacco, with the sweetness coming from a beautiful blackcurrant top-note, and it dries down with a soft creaminess and dusty tobacco lingering for 6 hours plus. It’s comparable to Mugler’s Pure Havanne, but think of PH for the more distinguished gentleman, not so sugary sweet, more refined, powerful, and redolent of a businessman celebrating a hard day’s work, making deals that benefit everyone, and making their business, and country, truly great again 🙂

    Tobacco frag with oakmoss and without patchouli. That sounds hopeful.

    Just got my bottle and gave it a test run…
    Let me put it this way. Out of all the Aramis for Men flankers, this is by FAR the best of the bunch!
    Opens with a sharp minty fresh tobacco which is soon followed by nutmeg and clary sage accords. An invigorating opening.
    Once it calms down and the middle notes kick in, that’s when ATR really makes its sublime presence known. Deep, sensual and mature.
    I swear I can detect myrrh in the mix. In fact, if I were to compare this to any other perfume it would be Dior’s 2012 Eau Sauvage Parfum.
    Love it!

    A very interesting twist here. This is a fragrance for those who love a dense leathery, herbal but stinging opening, with an absolutely well realised tobacco note up front. I genuinely think that tea is a big player in this fragrance as it simultaneously reminded me of three different L’artisan perfumer fragrances namely… tea for two, Dzing! and dhronkha (probably not spelled right but you know the one I mean) Maybe the fresh, green tobacco leaf and tea share common traits which I suppose they kinda do. It’s got that dry vetiver note but also a bit synthetic and something Bertrand Dauchafour would definitely have come up with. The clary sage and moss give it that effect too I suppose and the top notes are peculiarly original. I liked it but Tobacco reserve is not going to be for everyone, I like that it’s not an easy going or creamy, gourmand tobacco. Instead this has roots in the masculine original formula.
    Worth a sniff for real.
