Use In Perfumery - Cigar and tobacco notes are warm, sweet, and smoky. They render a rich and multi-layered aroma that fuses elements of warm, sweet hay, dried fruits, floral sugary cocoa, and multiple spices. Pine needles are fresh, cool and provide a window into the great outdoors in the colder months of the year. Winter air is brisk, pristine and restorative and because it is cold molecules cannot evaporate easily, which is why it disperses fewer aromas than summer scents.

Historical Aspects - Cigar tobacco in perfumery evolved as a fantasy concept that mirrored the 1920s flapper era. It became a treasured addition to  many contemporary high-end fragrances. Originating from a colorful past dating back to ancient Egypt and mummification balms and Middle Eastern incense, pine needles have become favored facets in modern colognes and fougère accords. Winter air has been used for centuries as an element whose crisp and resinous character captures the beauty and enchantment of a holiday landscape.

Psychological and Emotional Benefits -Tobacco extracts evoke feelings of nostalgia, harmony and sophistication. For centuries untold, it was used to quiet the mind, connect with the spiritual world and offered emotional balance. It also evokes feelings of personal empowerment, sensuality and mystery. Pine needles are invigorating. They evoke a sense of freshness, reduce stress, anxiety and stimulate the release of serotonin and dopamine, which are linked to feelings of happiness and well being. Winter air softens heavier notes and disperses crisp ones. It has been called "olfactory armor” as it combats seasonal blues by triggering profound feelings of comfort nostalgia and security.
