Smoke Flower Tobali, unveiled in 2018, sits firmly in the category of a unisex fragrance.
Japan is where this fragrance comes from — and it shows. Smoke Flower Tobali — the choice of those who appreciate depth and character in every detail.
The fragrance is highly persistent and lasts on the skin for up to 8–10 hours, gradually revealing its notes and allowing you to enjoy the full bouquet throughout the day
The scent is clearly present near you, but it does not fill the entire space
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The olfactory structure of Smoke Flower unfolds as a layered story, where layers reveal themselves without rush and without gaps. The signature of Tobali is recognizable in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. Every decision feels deliberate, and the composition keeps a clear direction.
At olfactory-group level the composition is built around Spicy, Wood, Balsamic and Whiteflower. The framework further includes Fruit and Musk.
Right at the start you meet cardamom-peppery opening notes: Cardamom, Clove, Ginger and Pink pepper.
In the central layer you meet Frankincense, Incense, Licorice, Lily of the Valley and Rice holding a resinous meditative direction.
The internal accord map is built around these accords: Balsamic, Citrus, Gourmet and Floral forming a compact and readable structure. Additional accords such as Musc, Wood, Spicy and Oriental add depth to the backdrop. The gender direction is unisex, which makes the scent profile easier to read.
Overall Smoke Flower sounds complete from start to finish — the opening sets direction, the middle layer carries the identity, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. This is the type of composition best judged on skin.
