Nice Tobacco Vanille clone ?

[MisterGrain]

Comparing with my decant, I'd say Stirling pulled it off great with their clone (Haverford EdT).

Maybe the real question should be, are there any Tobacco Vanille clones that aren't nice?

If you like Tobacco Vanille, buy Tobacco Vanille. No clone that I have tried smells as good, none has the longevity, and you're essentially saying to yourself that you aren't worth it, so you have to buy a cheap copy. FM fragrances, 906, on ebay for around £20. Charuto Tobacco Vanille (Pendora), £25. Eclat in Germany; they made a 'passable' Kilian Black Phantom clone, certainly better than the Dua one I tried. I don't know if they make a TV clone but they surely must do, they certainly have some great sounding tobacco fragrances (721, 738, 778, 687, 718).

I wanted to find a better version of Tobacco Vanille and I was willing to pay more for it. I tried Nuit a Salzbourg, otherwise known as Vanille Tabac by La Maison de la Vanille. Not bad! Spicier than Tobacco Vanille, but the longevity isn't even close. I tried Tobacco Dynasty from Noble Royale. Close to Tobacco Vanille, once again the longevity is poor. If there was a fragrance that was as good as Tom Ford's overall, that means the smell, the longevity, the presentation and packaging, I'd buy it. I haven't found one yet.
