Le Labo Tabac 28 is one of the city exclusives and only available in Miami. Created by Frank Voelkl and launched in 2019, it is inspired by Miami with it's smoky, seductive tobacco. Notes of tobacco leaves, rum, cedarwood and green cardamom. It is an EDP, eau de parfum.
From the brand - "Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. And sometimes, it becomes a perfume! Smoky, seductive, alluring – TABAC 28 is Miami in a bottle. Deeply aromatic tobacco absolute (picture a Cuban Havana distilled) combined with opulent oud and a striking cedarwood blend creating a smooth, smoldering feel. Gaiac wood and rum give the fragrance an intoxicating warmth rounded with green cardamom. The whole thing is alive, vibrant, sensual – decadent, even! And it brings to Wynwood more colorful graffiti… but this one for your nostrils only. Only available in Miami.
Fragrantica - "This is old school Miami, a swanky gentleman's club or dimly lit cocktail bar: dark liquor aged in oak, tobacco, a leather wallet stuffed with cash, a waft of cologne in the air, someone sneaking off to the bathroom for a bump. A bit rough (like the next morning), but addictive and alluring nonetheless. A full experience."
Fragrantica - "I used to work at a so-called gentlemen's club. Tabac 28 reminds me of it. Cigars, smoke, alcohol, heat, sweat, a waft of Coco Mademoiselle from other gals, and a bit of depression, all melded together. Absolutely poetic."
Fragrantica - "Like smoking a pipe on the porch of your ranch-house at the end of a long day, in the midst of a long year. The repairs don't do themselves, and you take your moments of quietude where you can get them."
Fragrantica - "This smell just like I imagine å private library from the eighteenth century would smell like. Like a Henry Cavill, with glasses were sitting there in a leather chair, reading a leatherbound book. Very leathery? It is a warm, comfortable and clean smell. I think it is amazing..."
Fragrantica - "This smells like a wooden cask in which rum is aged. A touch too raw and woody when sniffed up close, but the rum projects and makes it completely addicting and irresistible. I'm a sucker for a sweetened tobacco fragrance (this one is sweetened with rum). If you love the TF Tobacco Vanilles and the Carner D600s of the world, put this on your wishlist."
