Tabac scent

I think of yuzu, lavender, hemlock and myrrh when I take the lid off the bowl. Three weeks after first opening it, it's mellowed and smells even better than it did the first day!
 
Tabac smells like;
My grandparent's bathroom
My grandmother's purse
Hotel soap
Like Old Spice but much better

I've grown to love the scent as a soap. I wouldn't want it as an a/s but as a shave soap I really like the scent and the performance is second to none!
 
Cool, actually I quite like the scent that's left now, so I'm not writing off Tabac yet, I have a tub of the shaving soap coming, and I'll check out the deodorant my local store got in stock.

Not cool...Rubbing in how you can get good stuff at local stores...Not cool at all
 
This is the funniest thread I've seen so far at B&B..

I hope if it goes on in the future there is at least one good laugh on each of the future to continue the tradition of the pages so far.
 
I often see such threads where nobody agrees on the scent of Tabac: what does it smell like, is there tobacco in it, etc.

This link is on the company's website: http://www.tabac-original.de/english/fragrance.htm
By putting your cursor over the top, middle or base of the bottle, you get the corresponding notes. There is no tobacco.

Mystery solved. Now, I'd like to know where the name comes from.
 
Basenotes should probably read:

Top Notes
floor wax, Woolworth's lunch counter, shoe polish, Vicks Vaporub

Middle Notes
thrift shop basement, Grandma, rest home, bingo parlor

Base Notes
borax, car wash, wet dollar bill, axle grease
