Tobacco Collection Rich Warm Addictive 2018

Scent: 10 This is a faboulous fragangance very different to other ones. It is sweet and, as his name says, very adictive, cause i cant stop smelling It when i wear It. I LOVE the coconut note (not many man perfumes has this note) mixed with the vanilla, the tobacco and the floral and very subtle touch of the peony. As other fragranticos has said before, i think this new versión has as base the last one. I think It add the new notes (peony, vanilla and rhum) but i think It has still most of the old ones as well (coconut, honey, tobacco...), Or maybe It is just an effect of the mixing of the new ones, i am not sure. In Amy case i LOVE the smell of this perfume and i like It more than other much more expensive fragances. Longevity: 8 This fragance lasts a lot. Much more than other much more expensive fragances that i own. It is an edt bit It lasts on me more than many edp that i have. I can smell It about 6-7 hours on my skin. Sillage: 8 The projection is quite good the first 3 hours. I used this perfume some time yo go working and Manu people asked me which perfume i wore even 3 or 4 hours after the application. I have some collages Who hace bought the perfume aswell because they LOVE the trail i left and when i toldos them where hace i bought It and Joe many It had costed me they couldnt believe It! Quality/price: 10 You can buy It alone for 9.95€/100ml or togerher with Zara intense dark exclusive (very clóse to 212 VIP CH with a touch of CODE PROFUMO) for 17.95€/200ml (100ml each). This is a very good prive for the quality of this perfume and fue todo the price, even when It is no necesary because the performance is good, yo can reapply without feeling sad and you can use It with no limits to get a bigger sillage if you are going to use It yo night out for example. Versatility: 8 Even when It is a very sweet fragance i ser It very appropiate to go working for example. It is nice for a casual fit but i can see It oerfectly with a suit ir elegant dressing. The only time i think could have not a very good performance is at midday un summer, but forbthe resto of the year is oerfect for any ocassion. I can see It a good option to nightout overall un the case of Young people. Dúe to his notes and sweet smell i ser It a totally unisex perfume. It remember me even some feminine fragances. Global:9

Everybody in the beauty community knows about Zara’s Rich/Warm/Addictive. 🍯🥥🍹 RWA is, in my opinion, the best creation from Zara. It’s a fairly linear fragrance but one of thhe strongest and best blended release by them. Lately Zara started listing just three notes per perfume, maybe thinking their customers can’t handle the knowledge of more than three notes. I disagree, especially since, in here, the 3 notes don’t match the perfume. I’ll tell you what I personally smell: the opening is a boozy coconut rum, if there’s peony, I can’t detect it. Think Crystal Noir’s coconut in the background, not overly synthetic, not fake. After the first ten minutes this fragrance develops in the most gorgeous way. The rum stays in the background and it becomes honeyed, spiked with vanilla. In the dry down I feel tobacco, honey, vanilla and sandalwood. I think the sandalwood and tobacco combination makes for an extremely creamy fragrance. Now, I need to specify, this is not a gourmand sweet despite what I’m describing, this is a creamy, deep, balsamic, warm, rich sweet fragrance. It has a very mysterious, deep, sensual, cuddly feel to it. The sillage is not enormous but lasting power is, on me I can smell it even after 24 hours. This is one of those perfumes I’ll continue to re-buy! 🎖🎖

It’s pretty interesting the way different points in my life connect. For example, many of my fragrance related experiences can be likened to my experience of working at Starbucks many epochs ago. The drinks at Starbucks are like different fragrances. There’s several basic categories from which you add different ingredients in order to make it complete and to further personalize it. For example the Frappuccino, which is a signature drink category at Starbucks, would mostly be flavored by various syrups such as vanilla, caramel, hazelnut, toffee nut, as well as mocha. To me RWA from Zara would be the most delicious syrup to blend into a Frappuccino or to drizzle on top. This is a gorgeous bourbon vanilla, mixed with coconut milk and sticky honey to create a thick drinkable liqueur. I find this scent to be wonderfully unique and a bargain deal, I have to say it may even be one of my fav fragrances ever.... Yes I know it’s soooo simple and linear and “low-budget” but my nose craves it more than many frags I love. It’s a comforting toasty scent forsure and also works great for layering 💙 ~signed, your local barista ☕️

I just picked this up and it was a blind buy since I heard good things about this fragrance and it’s ranked rather high on here. First thing I did was sample the scent. Next I let the scent waft in the vehicle and I was impressed. I immediately had to read the notes complexity on the box because the scent had a familiar take. After reading about the rum and the vanilla bourbon my mind went straight to Dior’s Fahrenheit Le Parfum. The only major component missing was the violet leaf and what was substituted was tobacco over leather. This so much smells like the middle and base of FLP that I enjoyed my drive back inhaling the goodness of this blind buy. This is a cheapie that has a great presence. I’m sure that with a little creative layering that even those who think it’s too sweet or too feminine may change their minds. Bravo, Zara! This is a top shelf pick for me!

I have never smelled the original, which is said to be VERY sweet. This one is most definitely not VERY sweet, but still sweet nonetheless. The tobacco is noticable in this one, which was not the case for the first formulation? I have read that people see this as a cheaper version of Parfums de Marly Herod and I can see where they are getting this from. This and Herod are in the same genre. However, this is much more feminine in my opinion and in 99/100 cases I would rather go for either Herod or Pure Havane. This is Herod for women. Scent: 8/10 Projection: 7/10 (First 2 hours soft projection) Sillage: 7/10 Longevity: 8/10 (Lingers for 8h+, though very soft) Versatility 7/10 (Cozy movie nights, cuddling with your SO) Uniqueness: 8/10 Total: 7.75

Without reading fragrantica before buying and smelling this I immediately got the similarities to Baraonda, the best way I can describe it is there's this buttery, malt nuance with a hint of rose in it, just stunning. The dry down to me shares similarities with Mercedes Benz club black and replica by the fireplace due to a gorgeous nearly gourmand like vanilla but some sort of incense/wood/spice mixed with the vanilla that adds a little complexity and masculinity to the strong vanilla. Performance was great for the price, on a fairly warm day this last me around 7 hours on skin, projected for about 2 hours. This is a worthy cheap fragrance for anyone who loves a boozy sweet fragrance for the cool weather.

Quite impressed with this, and my holy grail Tobacco scent is Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille! This is a fraction of the cost of course, of Tom Ford. Initial blast is, to me, very coconut intense, and naturally with Tobacco. This is a very sweet tobacco. I do not detect any rum at all, but the dry down is vanilla intensive...but not cupcake sweet, 12 year old girl vanilla ;) Longevity is not great, but not bad. My skin however eats scent (10+, no joke, sprays of Angel edP is gone in 1-2 hours!!!). This Zara I can smell for a few hours, and then it becomes a skin scent..but it is not gone. This lasts much longer when sprayed on your shirt or in your hair. For the price, this is one helluva good deal!

This perfume is so delicious, vanilla makes it so soft and cozy, the rum in it has more of a candy with some eggnog vibe than a pirate vibe and tobacco is not really there for my nose... In my opinion this is gourmandish and feminine but my mother who likes very-very feminine perfumes, said it's unisex and she wouldn't risk it. It has the same feeling like TF Tobacco Vanille but I would say it's not the same, if you are looking for a dupe for TF I think Mac's Velvet Teddy is more similar. Every time when I meet my little sister and I have it on, she asks me if I have drank some tea (Greenfields mint and chocolate with some milk and honey). The lasting power is good, sillage is more moderate.

I did buy this one thinking I got the more sought after one with the tobacco and coconut notes but it sadly wasn’t the one. I did try it two times and got a decent performance after spraying my shirt, I still smelled it the following day. When I first sprayed I got a warm vanilla note and what seemed to smell like coconut and a bit of chocolate, I could be wrong but It definitely smelled a bit of coconut and chocolate with the boozy note in the background of the fragrance. Slight gourmand vibe with this fragrance. Overall I thought it smelled ok for the price, but unfortunately I gave it away and regret it now. I will definitely buy another or maybe even two.

Might be the only one here but I get this sweet sour /tart note that is reminiscent of Thai tamarind hard candy. Reminds me of childhood. It’s absolutely lovely and addictive to smell. I’m guessing that’s the rum. I also get this fuller sweet note which is either vanilla or coconut like. When this dries down I feel like I smell an earthy or wood like scent (I have to really smell my skin when it starts to fade ) which I think is the tobacco if it’s actually in there. Lasts about 2 hours . Maybe 3. Not as strong as the first hr But I get whiffs of it now and again within the later 3-4 hrs. Performance is what I would expect for $20. Not gonna hate on that.

I smell the vanilla, tobacco, and some coconuttyness, but I don't detect too much rum. It's two minutes in. I bought this cause I was at Zara, loved everything in Zara, but being a frag head I gravitated to the scent section first. I was looking for a vanilla frag, as I only own PE Black Vanilla Absolute, but noticed it wasn't sweet and more aromatic than gourmand, this is sweeter and what I was looking for. Dry down is coming in now, it's been 5 minutes some rum coming in, less of the sweet smelling candle disappearing, don't know what the gripe is but those candles smell good. Tobacco and sweet scent all the way. Gonna douse myself with this tomorrow.

Beautiful, boozy, coconutty... I don't get any actual tobacco but it does have that sweetness and warmth that drum tobacco has (if anyone has ever rolled their own cigarettes you may know what I'm talking about). Rich, Warm, Addictive is a pretty spot-on name (which is a first for Zara, let's be honest lol). Unfortunately, the longevity isn't great as others have pointed out, but, for the price I will not complain! I pretty much only wear this to bed as it's extremely comforting while also being sexy. I feel good when I put this on and enjoy having an option I can overspray without it annoying anyone around me. Love

Long lasting, linear, gourmand fragrance. It's not as complicated as Pure Havane. Similar to Tom Ford Tobacco vanille, but more warm. I smell dark cherry tobacco and warm yummy vanilla. On skin drydown have more vanilla. On clothes more cherry. There is no honey for sure (maybe it depends on what type of honey we are talking about). Bottle is nice to hold. This scent is rich, warm and addictive, as the name says. UPD: Compared it with Franck Boclet Tobacco. Very similar. You could only tell them apart by direct comparison. Zara is a bit more acidic. Boclet have some wood and fruit undertones.

I just wanted to say that I ordered the combo pack of Rich/Warm/Addictive and Intense/Dark/Exclusive. I enjoy them both, but I'm not sure if either of them are a "Love" for me yet. However, if you combine them spraying RWA first followed by IDE, the scent you have then is AMAZING ! ! ! And I couldn't really pick up the tobacco note in either one on their own, but with both you can easily pick up on a really nice tobacco scent. If you have both give it a try and you'll see. If you were trying to pick just one I would go with IDE for compliments/mass appeal, and RWA for a warm, sweet fragrance.

It smells like rum and honey. Sweet, but not super-sweet. Despite its name, I can't smell any tobacco, and that's a good thing. Its scent is different enough that it doesn't remind me of any other fragrance. The scent doesn't degrade over time, so the quality of its ingredients seem to be good. Longevity and sillage are more than fair for the price. An "affordable niche" fragrance for the younger gentlemen. Not for me, but those who enjoy wearing it will be smelling nice and original for just a few bucks. Check my other reviews if you want to learn more about Zara fragrances. Cheers!

Well, i tested this in Zara store and i can say it was a bit too sweet for my taste. It smells simplistic, you can definitely get peony and vanilla, but from memory i did not smell "rum"ish note but rather i smell something resembles of honey. It also was long lasting compared to avarage zara fragrance, but not the strongest zara i can say. Definitely only for winter imho, also unisex-ish for my taste. Like i won't probably prefer this on a woman but i wouldn't tell she is wearing a mans fragrance too. TL;DR: Better than most of the Zara, sweet and warm.

1. The 2018 and 2016 releases are different enough for a fraghead to note the differences. 2. You have to be patient with both in order to 'get' what everyone is talking about. All three (RWA, IDE, UFS) rely on an aura that is not immediately present, and you might not smell it throughout the day, but others around you do. It is like a 4 inch glow around the wearer and it is awesome. I finally could smell the glow after a few wearings and since then I have been a fan. As others have mentioned, RWA is also perfect for layering.

Best fragrance by Zara after 9.0, hands down. It's a luxury mix of vanilla, coconut and rum, an unbelivable charming, alluring and cuddly scent for what it cost. Girls totally loves this on me and i also do, you will surely get a lot of compliments with it and yes, it's an unisex fragrance so women can easily wear it. I have the 2018 version and the performances are absolutely good, unfortunately the newer versions perform poorly and they have a more syntetic and less defined smell to me, even the presentation is worst. 9/10

I am female and i really like this perfume. To me, first minutes it smells exactly like Baileys. After a while it starts smelling like a Baileys with a bit of coconut milk in it. In the drydown you don't feel the alchool (as in spirits) so much. It is as if evaporates. And all that remains is a cozy sweet, slightly coconutish unalcoholic baileys. This is not a perfume to impress. This is pure confort and warmth. A perfume perfect for this season. Sit by the fireplace on a winter cold night, and enjoy this cozy smell. Cheers!

This perfume is similar to the 2016 version but it lasts longer and has a better sillage, probably due to a stronger concentration. It does remember me of Herod, from Parfums de Marly, and Pure Havane from Thierry Mugler. I still have not tested it properly, but so far I like it a lot! It's not as sweet as the first version but it's creamier. It also has a smaller burst of alchool in those couple of seconds after spraying. I do believe the scent pyramid to be a lot more complex than what is shown above.

I was shocked how good it smells when i first tried it.The first few seconds you get this scent of Rum or Malt Whiskey..love it. I bought the Tobacco 2xpack with the Intense dark exclusive. But my favorite is the Rich Warm Addictive. And since Zara keeps discontinuing their fragrances i just ordered a second bottle as backup.In my opinion this is almost niche quality! If you like gourmand fragrances this is a blind buy! 12,90eur! Thank you Zara and keep them coming ;)

I love it. It's deep, sexy, intoxicating. It's smells sweet and boozy. Very cozy, warming, comforting. I can smell the rum, the vanilla and the coconut. It's pretty linear, but I don't care because I enjoy it very much. Is one of my go to options when the colder days arrive. I use it both to be at home on lazy days and to casual ocassions.And the price is unbeatable! If Zara keeps this in their catalog, I'll keep on buying it as soon as I finish a bottle, for sure.

This is the sweetest fragrance in my collection. A sweet vanilla gourmand scent which lasts a good amount of time and is not sophisticated at all. I wear this outdoors on cold days and it works good on me, but I can totally see a woman wearing this one.

This is a vanilla/rum bomb. Strong projector. Girls love the smell on me. So much that my gf stole my bottle. Cozy and warm for the cool winterdays and nights. Absolutely amazing for the price. Can recommend this to anyone for the colder days.

my first Zara product.....HOT DAMN THIS SHIT IS A TITAN!! scent 9.8/10 strength/longevity 7.8 ....smells like an exquisite tanning lotion with tobacco and sweet baked goods fused into it...and to me thats yummy....ciao

Blast of red wine on initial spray, then it becomes very smooth and boozy with quite a bit vanilla. Love it for the price. OK performance, lasts 4-6 hours on my skin but I'm not complaining

Absolutely beautiful tobacco fragrance and I was surprised it doesn't have tobacco note in it. But it smells like nice tobacco vanilla. I will buy another bottle. Best purchase in 2020.

A less smoky, cheap alternative to "By the fireplace" from Maison Martin Margiela. I love it, just wish it performed better. Then again, it's cheap.

A very nice Zara. This is sweet, warm spicy and boozy. Longevity and silage are both good. It has a nice character about it. Good one.

Herod + Back to black which as combination smells like honey cookies to me. Sweet, gourmand. Price/Quality 10/10

Love the smell of Rum on this one, sometimes too sweet tho. Lasts 12+ hours on skin, days on clothes.

Very nice gourmand-is scent. Coconut, honey and rum. Lasts forever (like days) on clothes.

Creamy coconut ice cream with honey and Captain Morgan spiced rum drizzled on top. YUM!!!

Charming and warm scent. I recommend it for cool weather ✨

Zara Tobacco Collection: Rich Warm Addictive, Batch #02040 I detect a coconut-rum accord in the opening, but maybe the coconut is actually the peony listed as the middle accord. Within minutes, the cologne shifts to a nice, warm vanilla which then remains throughout its dry down. I do not detect any tobacco accords in this which is strange, since Zara has placed this in their Tobacco collection. This is a marvelous fragrance, one that is quite sweet, and the descriptors Rich, Warm, Addictive are apt and quite accurate in my opinion. I find myself wanting to wear it on the weekends on those cold fall or winter days when I am staying in the house curled up with a good book while sitting next to a cozy fire. It is definitely a unisex cologne, despite the verbiage to the contrary. I like it, but be warned that it may be too sweet for some. It is very reasonably priced through Zara on their website.

I didn't have a lot of expectations for this perfume because I am more of a floral/fresh scents type of person. But the fragrance community kept talking about it, saying how cozy, nice it smelt. I was very curious and decided to give a try. I bought it with the intense/dark/exclusive fragrance and I actually really liked both. To me, Rich/Warm/Addictive is definitly a female scent, It's too sweet for a male fragrance. My brother thought the same. However, Intense/Dark/Exclusive is more manly and my brother really enjoyed it and wore it the next day after the purchase. It is a nice a scent but as expected from Zara, It doesn't last long and the sillage is not the greatest. Still I am very happy about my blind buy because I spray it at home all the time, there's indeed something very addictive about it, even if It's not an absolute love.

While it's sold in the men's section, it's totally unisex. I loved it so much (and still do) when I bought it two years ago that I bought a backup bottle. I don't think I'll run out any time soon - and even so, I don't think Zara will discontinue this fragrance any time soon - but I don't want to imagine a time where I won't have this in my collection. This only projects the first hour for me, after which it becomes a skin scent for about 5/6 hours, which is great for me. I like to wear this fragrance to bed because of how comforting it is for me, but I also wear it during cosy nights in. I'd say this would be a safe blind buy. It is incredibly cheap for what you get and a good fragrance that won't have a lot of people really hating it whenever you wear it.

It may be from their Tobacco Collection, but I don't get a lot of tobacco from this. RWA is a delicious and boozy warm vanilla, that may be very linear, but enjoyable none the less. At first I thought the creamy nuttyness derived from hazelnuts, later from roasted chestnuts but at last it struck me : it somehow smells like coconut. Very good projection and excellent for cuddling up or for dates. This is the kind of scent you'd want to wear on a cooler day with no wind, seeing friends or family you love for a warm beverage and later lounging up with your SO in a cozy chair. Very sweet - bordering on gourmand - and slightly synthetic, but quite enjoyable for a casual winters day. Affordable, smooth and cozy - a very good deal for the price.

Wooow, I wasn't expecting such a sweet scent. I instantly knew what it reminded me of - the airy sweetness of Cacharel Yes I Am mixed with the vanilla-rum base of Le Couvant des Minimes Eau des Mission! It is great for a cheapie, although as I expected, it doesn't stay very long on the skin. But it is indeed a very comfy scent. GREETINGS FROM THE CZECH REPUBLIC! :-)

Another great fragnance from Zara. This one is very sweet tobacco vanila scent which is extremely plesant, I love to put few sprays on pillow before sleep. Ladies like it but beware that this is more a unisex frag. Definitly a complement getter, only for cold weather. Performance is not bad. Scent: 8/10, Performance: 7/10, Price: 9/10

I only smell sweet like honey tobacco from start to end. Definitely unisex. Long-lasting, 8+ hrs and have good projection. very sweet. it like I use honey as a body lotion. Very affordable but doesn't smell cheap. Good for a night out or on cold temp. Rating: 7.5/10 (very good but too sweet for me) Easy buy for the right person.

2018 formulation. Got this and the Tobacco Collection Intense Dark Exclusive 2018 cologne as a set for dirt cheap. This is definitely the better smelling of the two. I'm not saying this smells EXACTLY like Tom Ford's Velvet Orchid, but I get similar vibes. Both have rum, vanilla, and a strong floral note (orchid vs peony).

Lots of alcohol on first blast, but a good heavy spray will get you to the drydown in an hour, which is like a copy of Le Cologne Des Missions. You know when you do a photocopy of a photocopy? It's like that. If you can't find LCDM, this 2018 version is a reasonably priced substitute when you want a boozy vanilla.

I don't smell the tobacco in this one... As far as I can tell, it's linear. But the predominant smell of honey is nice. I liked more his cousin Dark Exclusive, even though it also hasn't tobacco.

ZARA, please bring back the 2016 version... PLEASE🙏🏻🥺 this is such a basic sweet smell in comparison, and a lot less weaker too.

Time is easily lost. I claimed to have the 2016 version, which seemed odd as I started my fragrance addiction softly in 2017. I knew I made the purchase around Christmas and it was before COVID, I checked my batch code and see that it was bottled in October of 2019, so I guess this is the 2018 version in my possession? Confused, well it’s ok, I just bought the 2021 version because? Reasons? So the version I have was really enjoyed at the time, even a LOVE. Well as time has passed I must say my opinion has changed. For the price this is ok, very soft projection and lasts about 3 hours before becoming a skin scent. This would be a great date night scent in cool weather as even sprayed heavy, is unlikely to offend, it also will draw one in close as it settles over the course of its wearing. The version I have is very Vanilla in every way. This is not bad, though my taste leans more heavenly hash these days. I certainly think this is a safe fragrance, even unisex. Suitable for young and old, just nothing special at the end of the day. A cheap cozy fragrance, I prefer CK Shock or Body Shop Activist if you want a mall fragrance...which leads to another review...

November 2020 I am so glad to see that the last 2 reviewers got it right. This smells like if you spilled a lot of coconut-rum all over yourself. There is some vanilla and peony in the background. Sometimes, I am in a strange mood and want to smell like a drunk so I spray some on. I remember the original 2016 formula and I prefer it unfortunately. BTW, the bottle shown above is the 2016 bottle. The current label is ever so slightly different. The 2016 opened with sticky honey. There def was tobacco in the background. The drydown was 100% proof rum that literally made me sway on my feet. Seriously. It was an amazing scent back then and well worth the hype in the fragcomm. As for this current 2018 bottle, I am 25% thru it and I wont buy it again when I finish. It's an easy reach but I prefer my perfumes to smell like tobacco when they are called tobacco these days. I recommend Black Vanilla by EXUMA if u want a gourmand tobacco scent.

A fluffy soft and sweet vanilla with just a touch of tobacco and rum. Certainly feminine take on my skin. I dont get booziness, but a slight creamy coconut hint with a touch of rum essence (not real rum but the essence used for cooking), very tame hint of tobacco in the drydown, no flowers at all. Its just warm thin synthetic caramel-vanilla cloud. Quite vague and non-descript and gone within 1-2 h. Warm? yes. Addictive? perhaps. Rich? no way. Plus, the drydown is quite cheap as typical for Zara. As a stand-alone scent I imagine it working when worn in the environment where the perfume is a no-go, or for sleeping. However, it works well for layering as it can soften strong tobacco, incense, woody and leather scents and add some sweetness. So it gets plenty of use for this purpose. And for the price one can go heavy with the sprayer.

Friendly priced fragrance But the hype on this is so funny This is just sharp,synthetic syrupy fragrance It is still good for the price. And performs good 5-6 hours

When I first got this I convinced myself I liked it. I am a big fan of vanilla so this really should be great. Yet... It just smelled off to me. A while ago I saw another reviewer of this or the older version say it had a weird smell like that of egg yolk. I thought that was a strange way of describing it but understood what he was getting at. For the longest time it has bothered me that this smells like something else I've smelled. Then the other day I was cleaning out my sink. I came across some old, free hand lotion from MGM that I brought home from my stay at Vegas. That's exactly what it smells like! Unfortunately, it smells like cheap hand cream. As a vanilla lover I really wanted to love this. I posted a previous review where I was a bit disappointed it didn't contain any tobacco (to my nose) but didn't want to rock the boat too much as many people seem to love this. Each time I put this on I liked it less and less. I just don't smell much in the way of rum or vanilla but pick up that cheap hand cream vibe. Shame.
