Creed Vintage Tabarome Private Collection was originally introduced in 1875. It has long been discontinued except in 2010 when Creed opened their vaults and allowed a small number of bottles to be sold. This is Vintage Tabarome, the discontinued version (Tabarome Millesime is a different version). A classic tobacco fragrance, it is much beloved and sought after and is at the top of every serious fragrance list to try. This fragrance is in the Chypre fragrance group. Notes of ginger, bergamot, tangerine, lemon, green tea, sandalwood, patchouli and tobacco.
from badgerandblade - "It's a very rich, heavy old world tobacco scent. It gets leathery on me. Some pepper thrown in for good measure. There's nothing out there like it (that I have tried)."
"The quantity and quality of natural ingredients available to make Vintage Tabarome no long meet the standards of the Creed family. The family said that rather than use 'substitute' ingredients yielding an inferior result, they would stop all production of Vintage Tabarome with no plans to resume."
