Royal Tobacco by Amouage is a unisex fragrance.
One of knowledge and aesthetic pleasure, Opus XIV – Royal Tobacco is a fragrant journey. It moves along the Tropic of Cancer from Oman to Cuba, connecting Royal Frankincense to Regal Tobacco.
‘El Lector’
The perfume references the tradition of ‘El Lector’, whose role was to read to cigarmakers in Cuban factories. It captivated them with riveting novels like Les Misérables by Victor Hugo and works by Honoré de Balzac, Stendhal, Edgar Allan Poe, or Herman Melville. This tradition became an honored ritual, as synonymous with the rolling floor as the scent of tobacco. Interpreted by renowned perfumer Cécile Zarokian, a unique accord of Frankincense and Tobacco bursts alive in a novel and rich sensory experience.
