I bought this one blind and was blown away by how good it is. The opening is a sweet bomb of Coca-Cola-honey-cognac and red tobacco, very potent and deep yet very well assembled and smooth. No smokiness or ash smell whatsoever. When it starts to dry down you can feel the leathery undertone while the tobacco and sweetness lingers forever. I sprayed on my skin and on my shirt right on my shoulders and I regretted it because it's so potent and it projects so much from the clothes, that it was becoming very cloying to me. It lasts basically all day, longevity is eternal and it projects like a beast for the first 4-5 hours, unbelievable. For $30 this is a total steal and this bottle may last you many months if not many years. Absolutely gorgeous cologne! Thanks Joy for another great review!.
All the fragrance viewers that I follow and have been following for many years, I have to say that I want an honest opinion from a knowledgeable and passionate reviewer, you sir are my first stop. Your reviews are always engaging and your charisma and ability to describe fragrance in a way that almost makes blind buying more like slightly less thsn 20/20 vision buying is a gift to the fragrance community. I hope you forever find health and prosperity friend. Regards and respect 👊🏽 Daniel
I often wonder is it these clones using cheap products as in carcinogens and phthalates, they’re so cheap so what are they really using, I can say that some of the clone or middle eastern houses drive my allergies insane or lock up my nose, but my designer and niche don’t.
Love this DNA, even if it was a stand alone fragrance. Was lucky enough to pick it up for super cheap long before any mention on YT; and despite it having that characteristic synthetic woody amber base, the fruity tobacco blend is very well done. Whereas Carlisle has a pretty clear separation between the smokiness and apple. Not as beastly projection as the PdM either, which for me is a plus. But on clothing, I've had it last for over 2 weeks. Those woody ambers are incredibly stable. Wish the cap was heavier, but the rest was just top notch value at the time. Ditto with almost all of the Alhambra line before many of them doubled in price. Now it's a toss up. So many more competitors nowadays...
@@Joey3105Tube Imo, it doesn't have the same apple accord as Carlisle, but it does have what feels like plum and a stronger tobacco. Personally, I reach for it more often than Carlisle so I think it could work well as a sub.
@@arymhansie sure np I just got this one 2 days ago.. it reminds a bit pure havane, which has honey.. but it’s less sweet.. I liked a lot About tabac, I tested the original tobacolor.. and to me it was just honey.. I did not like.. asked people everyone hated it
@@arymhansie pure havane is famous.. long time discontinued.. I tested the clone insurrection wild.. it was too sweet for my taste but exclusif tabac is great
I was watching this video with a friend, and I predicted that joy is either sick, or will complain about his heath. 0:12 and my mate couldn't believe my prediction. .
Mate, I'm waiting for you to do a review from your hospital bed with an IV attached, that would be the first of its kind. Thank me later for giving you idea's for your next video.
Your way of delivering speech is really great. As a Bangladeshi, I am proud of having such a reviewer in our country.
thanks so much brother
@@JoyAmin666what’s the 666 stand for? Are you like one those Satan worshipers? 😂
Pride leads to vanity, learn to do something yourself.rather than taking pride in others' toil.

Thank you for your channel, I love it. You review a lot of scents I love and am interested in.
Exclusif Saffron from this line is awesome!
Honnesly..as CH fans, this parfum is the one of my successful blind buy...hehee..
Sweet tobacco, bold, boozy, smoky..
the glue was off on mine as well...
so the lack of quality in the box is the same hahaha
Good day Joy, Exclusif Saffron is also exquisite, same line, dupe of Saffron Lazuli from CH.
ill def get it sir
exclusif tabac, exclusif saffron and exclusif rose are fireeeeee! get them all!
Love this perfume, good longevity,12 hours on skin and 3 days on clothes.
Exclusif tabac is elegant and beautiful, and super long lasting
How does this exclusif tabac compares to wild and tobacco from paris corner?
Is the air quality to blame for your continuous illness? I feel like you’re sick more times than not. Please take care sir.

Can I buy this as a substitute for Carlisle?

Is this similar to Pendora Scent's Charuto Mysterious Tobacco?
Just ordered a bottle 🤓 👍
Just ordered this today thx joy!
Joy, does this smell the same as Tabac or they are different ?
tabac is just honey.. there is no honey (officially) on this one
@@ismael85 Thank you for answering, much appreciated.
@@arymhansie sure np
I just got this one 2 days ago.. it reminds a bit pure havane, which has honey.. but it’s less sweet.. I liked a lot
About tabac, I tested the original tobacolor.. and to me it was just honey.. I did not like.. asked people everyone hated it
@@ismael85 The OG is pretty expensive as well! I have not heard of Pure Havane, is it worth buying?
@@arymhansie pure havane is famous.. long time discontinued.. I tested the clone insurrection wild.. it was too sweet for my taste but exclusif tabac is great
which one more close to red tobacco mancera, exclusif tabac or wild and tobacco
Wild is more close to the Mancera but the Maison Alhambra clone is muuuch better smelling in my opinion
@@joaopaulostasiu1091 thanks bruh

It’s definitely 8+hrs on me! Great fragrance!
You need to grow a thicker skin
