Parfum d'Empire Tabac Tabou Extrait de Parfum is a unisex aromatic perfume. Rare are the perfume houses that dare to put tobacco at the center of their creation: today, this essence is often associated with a heavy air of taboo. However, for Marc-Antoine Corticchiato, tobacco represents a unique opportunity for Parfum d'Empire, as it has deep roots in sacred rituals and in the history of perfume itself: its name comes from "per fumum," through smoke. So, perhaps Gainsbourg was right: the gods love the aroma of a Havana cigar. In fact, centuries before Columbus, tobacco was used by Native Americans to purify, heal or access spiritual visions. This sacred plant, ritually burned to offer human prayers to deities, served as a bridge between heaven and earth. In Tabac Tabou Eau de Parfum, tobacco releases its scent of fresh hay and golden savannah, creating a dense and enveloping fragrance, rich in nuance. Accompanied by narcissus, which combines vegetal freshness, floral elegance and leathery hints, and immortelle, with its honeyed and warm tones intertwined with those of tobacco... This perfume, designed for connoisseurs, is also distinguished by its use of rare ingredients. Destined to become an icon in Parfum d'Empire's permanent collection, it will be produced in limited quantities each year, with a label showing the year of production.
