The character of Tobacco Vanille, composed our way.
Velvet Spice leads with cocoa, dried fruits , and settles on tobacco, tonka bean, vanilla. At 30% extrait de parfum it sits close for the first hour, then reaches — six to eight hours is normal, longer on skin you’ve moisturised.

Straight answers.
Will people think I’m wearing Tobacco Vanille?
That is exactly what it was built to do. Velvet Spice was composed to land in the same register as Tom Ford's Tobacco Vanille — the tobacco and tonka bean signature people recognise from across a room, at 30% extrait de parfum — roughly double the fragrance oil of a designer eau de parfum. It is our own formula rather than theirs, and that is precisely why it is $34.99 instead of $460. You keep the impression, and the $425.
What does it actually smell like?
An hour in, cocoa and dried fruits take over. This is the fragrance people actually meet. It finishes on tobacco and tonka bean and vanilla — still on your coat the next morning, still earning the question.
Is this a Tobacco Vanille dupe?
Most people call it that, and we are comfortable with the word. What you are buying is an original LXPERFUME composition built to sit in the same scent register as Tom Ford's Tobacco Vanille at extrait strength — sold openly under our own name, in our own bottle, at $34.99. We compose rather than copy, which is why our name goes on the front and why we will take it back for thirty days if it is not for you.
How long will it last?
Six to eight hours, and often past midnight on fabric. Extrait de parfum carries 30% fragrance oil — about twice a typical designer eau de parfum — so it is still working long after a lighter concentration has gone. Sweet, resinous notes like these are among the longest-wearing in the house. Spray it on moisturised skin at the pulse points and you will get the full arc.
What does it cost me?
$34.99, against roughly $460 for the designer bottle — 30ml at $34.99, 50ml at $44.99, 100ml at $59.99, and the largest size works out cheapest per millilitre. Every order ships free in the U.S., and any two bottles take $10 off automatically. You have thirty days to change your mind, even after opening it — so the only real risk is that you like it.
