In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Access Code Oriental by Vinci is a sweet, spice-heavy scent for men. Built with a rich tobacco leaf opening and a warm vanilla base, it suits cold winter nights when you want a close-wearing, sweet-spicy scent. It avoids the typical synthetic blast of cheap colognes.

Reviews →

Chevalier Tobacco opens with a sharp burst of dry tobacco leaf and warm spices. It quickly settles into a sweet, powdery heart of vanilla, cocoa, and tonka bean before drying down to woody notes. It suits casual winter evenings.
