This fragrance is inspired by the ancient Chinese techniques of tobacco curing, perfumed with musk, sugar, rice wine, spices, and flowers.
The way it was consumed evolved over time, eventually leading to sophisticated diffusers—the predecessors of modern-day vaporizers.
With an intercultural and transregional presence, tobacco was one of the first commodities from the Americas to cross the world’s oceans, arriving in China in the 16th century via the Philippines. From then on, it began to have a significant social impact in Chinese society, reaching its height in the 17th century.
During the transition between the Ming and Qing dynasties, its use gradually became popular among the elite, long before traditional methods became a symbol of modern consumerism. Although many perfumes feature tobacco as their main theme, none have so originally explored the ancient Chinese methods of curing tobacco leaves—infused with flowers, spices, sugar, musk, and rice wine.
This historical and poetic perspective makes this creation truly unique, as Ricardo Ramos reinterprets that enveloping aroma with a modern, sophisticated vision, full of warmth and inviting charm.
