Jasmin et Cigarette by Etat Libre d'Orange: Notes, Longevity and Review

What Does Jasmin et Cigarette by Etat Libre d'Orange Smell Like?
Jasmin et Cigarette by Etat Libre d'Orange is a daring floral-tobacco fragrance built on contrast. It pairs radiant jasmine absolute with dry tobacco, apricot, tonka, curcuma, cedar, amber, and musk. The opening is bright and floral, then the smoke arrives, giving the jasmine a hazy, cinematic edge that keeps the scent intriguing through the dry down.
The idea behind it comes from old Hollywood imagery: a woman, a trace of jasmine on skin, the dark seduction of night. On the wearer, that translates into something elegant but provocative, feminine yet with a rebellious bite.

The Jasmine Et Cigarette EDP perfume was created by Antoine Maisondieu and launched in 2006 as an eau de parfum. Projection is big in the first half hour, then it softens while the scent keeps going. Longevity is excellent, with wearers reporting 8 hours or more and a trail that others notice long after application.
Who Is Jasmin et Cigarette Best For?
Jasmin et Cigarette is an evening fragrance for women who want to stand out. Romantic dinners, nights out, and events suit it best, and it works year-round for those who like bold florals. If you enjoy its night-floral character, Night Romance by Shaik Sochi is a softer, muskier evening option, while Liquide Gold by Les Liquides Imaginaires trades the smoke for golden amber warmth.
