tobaccoflower: THANK YOU…I hope cigar boxes are as colorful and “over the top” as they used to be. I wish you had smelled this one to give your PROFESSIONAL opinion on the tobacco note…write back when you smell it? What is your favorite tobacco perfume of all time?

Toscano sounds interesting. I buy SMN at Takashimaya in NYC and the sprayer is free. I have Kyoto which I love and has excellent stay power on me. Just goes to show how important skin chemistry is in wearing fragrance.

Monkeytoe: I do intend to review Fieno SOMEDAY…it's on the list! But first will be the rarer Marshal's Wife which inspires love or hate. I do think Fieno will be too warm and cuddly for Miami…I guess you can reserve it for those few times when a freeze threatens to ruin the citrus harvests…or when you crank up the AC.

Review the syrupy antique ones, please. I would love a review of Fieno, which isn't carried locally. I worry that it might be too heavy for Miami. I would love a replacement for my long-departed Kiehl's essence New Mown Hay.

I will have to try this one since I like tobacco scents–I hope it shows up locally soon.

Helg: ah…don't think Toscano will take the place of your Fumerie Turque…that has much more tobacco than Toscano.

In a way it is foreboding that such an old company is issuing more acceptable fragrances for today's market.

On the other hand Toscano sounds rather nice from your description I am holding out till I smell it myself. I doubt it will take center stage from Fumerie Turque and Fifi in my tobacco-little-altar in my heart of hearts, but who knows? It might get featured in the wings

Inkdarkmoon: sorry you had to ORDER an atomizer…I don't know why SMN is so secretive about the atomizers…I went years without knowing they existed. HA!
