Is there such a thing as edible tobacco? Wrapped in the burning sensuality of myrrh, the richness of cocoa is enhanced by the spice of cinnamon. The elegance of iris and the warmth of benzoin puff a little powder into the smoke. This is one tobacco habit you won’t want to kick.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
The mood is an unhurried conversation that grows more intimate as the room empties. Bitter cocoa and tobacco bring a dry, smoky edge to the sweetness, while powdery iris softens the impression: sensual, but without a sugary flourish.
How to wear
Best suited to cooler weather, when the tobacco, cocoa and resins can feel enveloping rather than heavy. Start with one or two sprays on skin; add more only after the opening settles. A restrained application keeps the cinnamon and sweetness in balance, especially in warm interiors.
Who it’s for
For those who enjoy gourmand fragrances with bitterness, smoke and texture rather than confectionery sweetness. Particularly appealing to lovers of tobacco, dark chocolate and resinous scents who appreciate a powdery iris accent.

The nose
Jean Jacques, Caron’s in-house perfumer, brings a contemporary approach to the house’s richly textured style. His work balances distinctive raw materials with accessible, carefully rounded accords. In Tabac Exquis, he explores tobacco through bitter cocoa and chocolate, extending the house’s tobacco vocabulary rather than reproducing its historic formulas.
Collaborators
Ariane de Rothschild accompanied Jean Jacques on the scent-discovery journey to Africa that inspired the tobacco–chocolate pairing, contributing to the fragrance’s creative starting point.
Caron’s story
Caron favours expressive, richly textured compositions over trend-led restraint. Its philosophy embraces creative independence and fragrance beyond gender, while revisiting house signatures such as tobacco through unexpected material pairings.
Tabac Exquis’s concept
A scent-discovery trip to Africa with Ariane de Rothschild sparked Jean Jacques’s idea of dried tobacco leaf shaded with bitter cocoa: rounded and inviting, rather than overtly sugary. The composition continues Caron’s exploration of tobacco, connecting the heritage of Tabac Blond with a more contemporary gourmand direction.
Extra info
The chocolate effect combines natural cacao extracts with an accord reconstructed using aroma molecules. Its Collection Merveilleuse “O” bottle, designed by Olivia de Rothschild, is both stackable and refillable.
