Remy Latour is perhaps the most mysterious perfumer in history. The history of the appearance of the Remi Latour brand is also under the mystery of its mystery. Unfortunately, there is no official information about how the brand appeared, since Remi himself chose not to display everything. To date, true fans of Remi Latour can enjoy a considerable amount of aromas, but consider only the 8 most popular.
The first appeared in 1993 and was called Lune d'Ete. The sunny composition was filled with floral and fruity aromas and inspired thoughts of a summer day. Next in line was the Attractive female toilet water, which, possessing a truly delicate and aristocratic aroma, fully corresponded to its name. It was this perfume that soon gave the Remy Latour brand its own unusual style.
However, the first bestseller in the perfumery world was Cigar eau de toilette for men, released in 1996. This collection of fragrances literally blew up the market and remained the undisputed leader until the end of the century.
New Cigar Collection
The long silence of the French brand led to the release of as many as five tracks under the names of Silver Essence, Aromatic Amber, Mystic Scent, Bois de Cachemire and Essence de Bois Precieux, addressed to the stronger sex. As for the remaining three, Latour introduced them to the beautiful half of humanity and came up with the following names:
- Iris of Florence;
- Rose Noire
- Jasmin de Grasse;
- Vanille Tonka.
Remy found the similarity of perfume to cigars in the richness of shades that can smell, and in the long process of creation. The complex processing resulted in 8 fragrances reflecting the lifestyle of only those who are able to appreciate and understand the palette of tastes. According to Latour, the secrets of manufacturing and a large number of nuances of creation significantly affect whether the final product will be a pass-through product or a real masterpiece.
Each cigar variety has a special aroma: their spectrum includes chocolate, vanilla, resinous, woody, leathery and plant tones. It was this similarity that prompted Remy and his team of perfumers to create a mesmerizing collection of men's cigar toilet waters.
Fragrances "For him"
- "Aromatic Amber" - a woody composition with oriental notes. The perfume opens with a resounding roll call of bergamot and pepper with a layer of nutmeg.

The tone of oak moss, musk, tonka and ambergris completes the manly sexual composition.
- Eau de toilette "Cigar Esans de Bois Presieux" becomes the completion of the eastern key, where a wave of incense and spices immediately covers its listener.

Men's Cigar Eau De Toilette: customer reviews
The very word "best seller", mentioned at the beginning, became the definition of consumer opinion. It’s hard to disagree, because those who caught the appearance of the collection in 1996 unanimously reiterate that over the years, not a single fragrance has changed - it is just the same tobacco, recognizable and reminiscent of adult business men whom boys wanted to look like .
But for over 20 years, nothing has yet been known about the Remi Latour brand. But previously created perfume fragrances are still successful and are in high demand among consumers. Who knows, maybe this lull is just a respite before the deafening return of the mysterious Remy Latour.
