Notes










It's strong! I like it. The opening is pretty masculine but it becomes more feminine as it dries down. This could be a unisex scent. The sweet honey, almond, vanilla and tonka bean notes linger beautiful together. The anise and clove notes add some spice. The musk is subtile and the white florals create more dimention. It's slightly overwelming but I don't mind. This scent would be wonderful during the cold months!
I got to test this today and unfortunately for me this was not up to the huge expectations I had for this scent. Too sweet, nothing magic with it, just too much vanilla and anise and honey mixed together with jasmine and a touch of musk. Reminiscence is sweet too with all that star anise, but it ends up being a magic perfume thanks to the grand mix of spices within, but Tonka, no... far away from being a unique fume. So I gladly grabbed a bottle of Patchouly and ran back home... C'mon Reminiscence, you can do much better than that!
Tonka smells on my skin like slightly tamed version of Tobacco Vanille without that annoying clove scent i get everytime i try to wear TV. Funny thing is that in fact Tonka contains clove but i can't really detect it. On me it's all about sweet sweet honey with small dose of vanilla. Wonderful addition to my collection. When i wear it i feel amazing in sweet cocoon of coziness. Longevity - great, about 10 hours with couple of sprays, sillage - satisfying, gets stronger when worn in cooler weather.
On me i get sweet, sweet honey and tobacco. But mainly the honey. Not quite sure about it. I like it but maybe it's a bit sickly?
Just got this in the mail today. I compared it to TF Tobacco Vanille and while there is a similarity, Tonka is milder and lacks that clove punch that is in TFTV. I like them both equally. Tonka is a bit softer and the honey is quite dominant but not cloyingly sweet. Great alternative to TF. Highly recommended
