A masterful, daring fragrance where the intensity of leather blends with the powdery notes of carnation.
Description
With Tabac Blond, leather is given pride of place, elevated by powerful woody and smokey notes. Virginian cedar wood is first added to the formula in excess, at 20%. Then the earthy accents of vetiver and patchouli, coupled with the smokey notes of cistus labdanum and vulcanised styrax essence. This very dark blend provides a stark contrast to its floral heart notes: a rich bouquet of rose and ylang-ylang, where the naturally spicy notes of carnation are accentuated by clove. Fused into an intense and deep scent, these antagonistic notes create a new kind of perfume. Evoking the transgressive atmosphere of the Roaring Twenties, Tabac Blond is a lightly powdery leather scent that is both dark and delicate with an enchanting ambivalence. A revolutionary creation back then, a revolutionary creation today.
Try it! A trial dose in your order to discover before opening.
Tabac Blond explores the most leathery facet of tobacco, and combines it with its polar opposite. The dark, smoky accents of a typically masculine leather note are blended with the sensual, infinitely feminine, powdery notes of carnation. A marvellously ambiguous duo that oscillates between the powerful scent of skin and the softness of a flower at the heart of a fragrance that breaks all the rules.

Our ingredients lists are regularly updated. Before using a CARON product we invite you to carefully read the ingredients list printed on the packaging to be sure that this product is suitable for your personal use.
Inspired by Paris in the Roaring Twenties, by jazz and the Charleston, Tabac Blond is an exploration of the most leathery aromas of tobacco. The party is in full swing in a Haussmanian apartment as the sunset paints the sky a pinky orange colour. Its rays bounce off the golden brassy tones of an Art Deco chimney. Carnation-filled vases, pearl necklaces and long, ivory cigarette holders are showcased on the precious shagreen-covered wooden furniture. The wind of change, of freedom, wafts through the clouds of smoke. Bold and mysterious, Tabac Blond is a fragrance that transcends convention and gender.
Did you know?
There is a before and after for Tabac Blond. A never-before-seen scent, its leather-dominant trail gave rise to an entirely new fragrance family: the “leathers”. This family is named “Tobaccos” to pay tribute to the pioneering creation that made audacity the House of CARON’s signature.
Tobaccos Collection
Since 1919, Tabac Blond’s deep, leathery and honey-like note of tobacco is the symbol of CARON audacity. This fragrance inspired Jean JACQUES, CARON’s in-House perfumer, to dedicate an entire collection to tobacco in the Tobaccos Collection.
A plant with a plethora of potential, tobacco holds secrets that only the perfumer can unlock. Whether picked while still green or ripe, dried, smoked or burnt, their leaves open up a wide range of possibilities. Multifaceted, tobacco absolute also reveals notes of white tea or cereals, as well as more honey-like aromas, finishing on animalistic and leathery notes.
Borrowing the CARON founder’s taste for adventurous exploration, Jean JACQUES unveils, through the Tobaccos Collection, the extent of this mythical ingredient’s olfactory spectrum.
La Collection Merveilleuse
La Collection Merveilleuse wears its name well. Combining the gems of our heritage with very contemporary creations, every last detail illustrates the overwhelming creativity, daring spirit, and generosity of our House. Refillable, stackable and customizable, the O bottle is our emblem. Free to be different, La Collection Merveilleuse is the most beautiful expression of French Haute Parfumerie by CARON.
I absolutely love this perfume. It really captures the essence of the old Carons. It's quite strong, so I just apply a spray to the back of my neck and I'm surrounded by a glorious cloud for hours. I have the previous version of the parfum, and it's beautiful, but there's something extra here. I love how Jean Jacques based this version on the very first formula. I was quite surprised how strongly I was reminded of vintage En Avion and Nuit de Noël throughout the day. There is something magical about the Caron base. The quality of the ingredients is apparent from the first moment. This is true haute parfumerie. I'd love to see Nuit de Noël get the same treatment. I miss it.

Really Beautiful
I will admit I don’t normally pay this much for a fragrance but in this case I basically couldn’t help myself. This is such a classic and is such a unique composition… Everyone needs to smell this at some point in their life.
Totally unisex with an interesting mix of light tobacco, leather, smoke, and lime…moderate sillage if you don’t over apply and longevity is most of the day in my experience
Caron, please come back to the US! I hate paying for international shipping!!

Inoubliable !
Quelle merveille de raffinement! Tabac blond est un roman, chaque minute, chaque heure, chaque jour il vous conte un histoire différente. Ses mystères se dévoilent progressivement à la chaleur de la peau à laquelle il se fond. Je suis ravie que Caron ait conservé ce chef-d'oeuvre et bien que reformulé, en raison des exigences de l'IFRA et des réglements européens, il l'a été avec un immense talent. Il est magnifique. Merci également pour le soin apporté aux à-cotés (présentation, expedition soignée et rapide).
