“There are elements of different legendary movies like Indochine in the fragrance Chinese Tobacco. A reflection of East meets West taking place in the 30’s to 50’s colonial French Indochina. I’m often captured by these strong contrasts and different ambiances when travelling in Asia. The old and the new. A major influence for the scent was the powerful scene in the movie ”Apocalypse Now” featuring Aurore Clement and Martin Sheen smoking opium.” -Johan Bergelin
Exotic, hypnotic, and more than a little dangerous, Chinese Tobacco is not your typically buttoned-up European tobacco scent. Fiery red pepper and coriander ignite the senses, while incense and oud add unexpected subtlety and a gently narcotic haze. Spicy and woodsy, primal and modern, Chinese Tobacco is a gripping study of East meets West.
