Launched in 1929,  Fleur de Tabac was part of the roaring twenties perfume trend for “tobacco”, considered daringly taboo when worn by young women. With its notes of iris and pipe tobacco, oak moss and tonka, this extrait summons the heady atmosphere of 20th century Parisian cabarets. The original formula has been analysed and reconstructed with the finest raw materials, conjuring searing jazz, frenzied dancing and rebellious chic.

All about this fragrance

Vibe check

This is the scent of a room that is already alive when you enter it: velvet, cigarette smoke, polished wood and a bright line of jazz in the air. It suits someone who likes their presence to feel composed but a little dangerous, with a dry, powdery trail that lingers close and deliberate.

How to wear

Best in cool to mild weather, where its powdery iris and woody tobacco accord can unfold without becoming heavy. Apply lightly at first; one or two sprays are enough to give a refined, close-to-skin aura, while a fuller application brings out more warmth and mossy depth in the drydown.

Who it’s for

For wearers who enjoy powdery woods, iris-driven compositions and tobacco accords that feel elegant rather than smoky or sweet. It will appeal to those drawn to vintage chypres, cabaret glamour and fragrances with a polished, slightly provocative edge.

Collaborators

Luc Gabriel, Cherigan’s revival founder and CEO of The Different Company, led the rediscovery and reconstruction of the brand’s archive fragrances, shaping Fleurs de Tabac’s return as a faithful modern extrait. He worked with historians and master perfumers to rebuild the formula and preserve the house’s Art Deco identity.

Cherigan’s story

Cherigan is built around the glamour and freedom of the Roaring Twenties: Art Deco lines, Parisian cabaret energy, and a taste for elegant provocation. The revived house keeps that vintage spirit intact while presenting it in a modern, extrait-only format with a focus on quality materials and accessible refinement.

Fleurs de Tabac’s concept

Originally launched in 1929, Fleurs de Tabac belonged to the early wave of tobacco-themed perfumes that played with the era’s fascination for chic transgression. The fragrance was later reconstructed from archival research and relaunched as part of Cherigan’s revival, keeping its iris-led tobacco illusion and smoky-powdery Parisian mood.

Extra info

Fleurs de Tabac was one of Cherigan’s first fragrances and is often cited among perfumery’s early tobacco scents. The modern version is an extrait de parfum, and the house describes it as a symbol of elegance and impertinence.
