Tobacco Jam 50

This is easily the best fragrance in the entire lineup. At a price point of around $50–$65 in the U.S., the value is exceptional for what you’re getting. Its much more wearable version of Amouage Purpose 50. It opens with a subtle resinous touch that smooths out the composition and removes much of the harshness that some people experience with P50. As it develops, the dry down settles into a clean, slightly sweet, soapy frankincense accord that feels both refined and comforting. I’ve also experimented with layering it with Stephane Humbert Lucas God of Fire, and the result is fantastic. The combination creates a scent that people consistently describe as clean, unique, and very noticeable in a good way. The compliments have been nonstop. In fact, within just two weeks, I went through almost a quarter of the bottle, which almost never happens for me. What makes it even more surprising is that I often wear it to the gym, and it still manages to pull compliments in that setting. Overall, this fragrance is incredibly addictive and surprisingly versatile. I would absolutely consider purchasing a backup bottle and letting it macerate for the coming year.

I finally got my hands on Assaf Tobacco Jam 50, and the first thing that hit me was how close it feels to Amouage Purpose 50. The opening is easily 85–90% similar, that same spicy, resinous burst with tobacco, pink pepper and a touch of bergamot. It’s bold right away, smoky and warm, like walking through incense-filled air with dry woods burning somewhere in the background. As it settles, the heart brings in papyrus, sandalwood, and a muted rose, more like a dry and dusty type of rose, almost antique in character. After about an hour, the scent moves into a base of akigalawood, saffron, suede, and vanilla, and this is where it gets very close to the drydown of Purpose 50. Performance is decent, around 6 hours on my skin. Purpose 50, on the other hand, is a beast and has that regal, larger-than-life presence; on clothing, it can linger for weeks. I paid $75 (including shipping) and honestly it should have been closer to $50. Still, I’m happy with the purchase. The scent profile fits right in with the woody, resinous, saffron-heavy fragrances that are popular right now, and it scratches that Purpose 50-style itch without the luxury price.

It’s a nice scent, never tried purpose 50 so I can’t tell if it’s a clone or not! I just got it today and it gave me a solid 8 hours on the skin, sillage is on the weaker side tho, moderate or maybe less than moderate, but it’s a fact due to the very high 50% oil concentration. Mine is a new batch tho, 12/2025, so I will give it a chance to sit and macerate and come back with an update if anything changes. Edit: this is amazing, I love it, beautiful, elegant, cozy, niche scent. When I use it I can’t stop sniffing it on me. Performance is amazing too. It’s been macerating for 24 days now and I couldn’t resist myself using it today and I am glad I did, projection is much better now. Will keep updating if something changes.

Guy below talking about synthetic mess lol I own maybe 250 fragrances, Middle Eastern, niche and designer Tobacco Jam 50 is in my top 5 favourites It’s so well done, smells like juicy citrusy and ambery frankincense. So refreshing and uplifting. Truly an all year round fragrance, it’s refreshing in the summer and warm in the winter (especially when layered in the winter) Scent : 9/10 (stand out and unique DNA) Longevity : 9/10 (will smell it on clothes for weeks) Projection : 8/10 (really strong but not a beast mode room filler because it’s just not that kind of scent profile) Some would say a more wearable and mass appealing Purpose 50 Only problem is the bottle isn’t big enough and not enough juice

It’s been a long time that i dropped a reaction here, And believe that’s the only review you need to know, unfortunately the scent it’s not safe for blind buy, About the similarity for purpose 50 bro it’s pver 97%, the only difference here that tobacco jam opens with a harsh and hard tobacco with resins note, not a synthetic note it’s just too powerful, after a 30 minute the magic starts it’s just purpose one to one, About the performance u dont need to ask a lot it’s just a beaaaaaaastmode,longevity and projection bomb

You get the purpose 50 comparisons immediately when you spray. You do notice the added tobacco but this fades fairly quickly. Dry down gets even closer to purpose 50. Soapy frankincense. High quality juice. Will let it macerate and of course update back with performance. So far extremely pleased for the price. EDIT 20th Jan: strong. The more I smell it the more I’m glad I added this to my collection. Of course it’s not 1:1 but i also do not see a reason to fork over so much for Purpose 50 with this.

Very easy to wear, harsh opening but changes to soft notes that doesn't hurt your noes with a monsterous longevity. Middle note of Arabian Gum with a sweet base at the end. The perfume has high concentration, be careful and don't over spray it. I hated the perfume on my first try, but I entirely changed my mind on the second and I loved it. Great eastern smell which doesn't contain any harsh oud nor bakhoor.

Not to be dramatic but this is one of the best inspiration fragrances I have smelled in my life. Assaf absolutely cooked with this one. It takes the purpose 50 DNA, swaps tobac for the pimento and my goodness this slaps. It smells incredibly expensive and lasts a long time. Might be the best Assaf release to date.

I own both Purpose and Purpose 50 and this is way too close to Purpose 50. I wear Purpose 50 every day and I know it pretty well. I’m very surprised by how good it is and it doesn’t smell like a synthetic version of Purpose 50. I’m gonna stick to the originals but if you don’t wanna pay that much for Purpose 50, get this.

I looked like a dishevelled homeless man and went out to go get a milkshake and this got me complimented. best believe this is gonna be used on the daily, although one downside is that I always look like a glazed donut

I love this stuff! It’s very close to Purpose 50, but it’s easier to wear. But just like purpose 50, it isn’t blind buy safe. So sample first.

Beautifully crafted soft, soapy, decent, resinous, creamy, niche and warm Definitely a killer for the price tag!

عطر جميل وراقي. ثباته وانتشاره يستحقان ثمنه

I don’t know how the OG smells. Hmmm...it’s not a boring smell, but it just doesn’t suit my scent profile. The SPL is average. I’ll wait to see the performance after maceration.

I smelled Amouage purpose 50 and Assaf's Tobacco Jam 50 on different occasions but I can confirm they're strikingly similar with little to no differences at all, is it complement getting? Yes if you were it to the right occasion wearing the right choice of clothing, it's mostly for formal occasions that needs to be dressed up for. For me, 5 sprays with this one is the sweet spot because it's *strong* but also nice smelling, it's a strong 8/10 for me.

Maybe have to wait until it macerates but I don’t smell any tobacco or fruits I mainly just get a tiny bit of pink pepper, resins, and woods. I get the Purpose 50 comparison but I was looking forward to the “twist” of tobacco and the other notes in this to set it apart. So far it’s very mid and as the other reviewer said the sillage is pretty weak.

This is an extremely medicinal version of Purpose 50. Not blind buy safe unless you’re obsessed with this DNA.

Haven’t tried incense 01 nor Purpose 50 But this is an odd one for me, find myself wanting to like it more than I think I actually like it. The papyrus note gives this a pencil shavings type smell and for some reason my nose picks up on that above everything else. Yes, the other notes are there and longevity is good projection is good. But pencil shavings, all I can think of when I wear this Yeah even writing this out, maybe I’m forcing myself to want to like it .. unsuccessfully it would appear! I brought from a FB group and guy sent proof of purchase, original box etc and I’ve purchased from the chap before , so confident the bottles legit. Going to let this sit on the shelf for a bit and hope it develops, but feel like it could end up being a resell later in the year

Crazy how close it is to Purpose 50 with the fraction of the price. Even with pressurized atomizer? 😂😂 Only difference I spot on opening is that it's harsher, but not in a way that you would notice it. I even barely spot it after comparing it side-by-side with Purpose 50 (initially I sprayed Tobacco Jam 50, then followed by Purpose 50 5 minutes after). Easy on the spray guys, you don't want to choke people with your presence. This DNA is easily making you go noseblind VERY quickly.

Purpose 50 on a budget. Close 90%+ Not same quality as Amouage obviously Lasts less than og but easily 8h+ I was about to spend 500 on the OG then found this gem for 40....unquestionable buy. So good. 10/10 frag honestly. Try a decant of the OG first and if u like that, youll love this one.
