Only The Brave Tattoo by Diesel, released in 2012 and composed by Alberto Morillas and Honorine Blanc, is a woody aromatic masculine with a sweet, resinous tobacco base. Everyone describes it as woody and aromatic, and about half also find it spicy, sweet, resinous and citrus.
Red apple and mandarin orange open it, so the first stage is fruity and bright with a crisp, slightly sweet snap. The heart is sage and pepper, which makes it drier, herbal and faintly peppery. The base is where the character lives: tobacco and benzoin bring a warm, sweet, slightly smoky resin, patchouli adds earthiness, and woodsy notes keep it dry rather than syrupy.
Wearers are split between long lasting and moderate longevity, and projection is moderate for most with a third calling it strong. It is voted for autumn and winter and mainly for the evening. It suits a casual night out in cool weather and anyone who wants a sweet tobacco scent without going to a niche price.
