Parfums de Marly Herod
Tobacco-rich, warm spicy, vanilla, resinous, and woody.
Top Notes: Cinnamon, Pepper
Heart Notes: Tobacco Leaf, Incense, Cistus, Osmanthus
Base Notes: Vanilla, Musks, Cedarwood
Herod begins with dry cinnamon and pepper before tobacco leaf takes control of the composition. Incense and cistus deepen the heart with smoky resinous warmth while osmanthus adds a softer floral-fruity nuance around the tobacco. Vanilla rounds the base without turning it dessert-like, musks add warmth and diffusion, and cedarwood keeps the finish dry and structured. The result is a rich tobacco fragrance with controlled sweetness, smoke, spice, and a smooth woody frame.

Summary
Summary
Herod is a warm tobacco-centered Eau de Parfum where dry spice, smoke, resin, and vanilla are kept in balance. Cinnamon and pepper give the opening a firm, warming edge before tobacco leaf becomes the dominant theme. Incense and cistus add smoky resinous depth while osmanthus contributes a softer floral-fruity nuance. Vanilla smooths the drydown, musks add warmth, and cedarwood keeps the sweetness structured rather than syrupy. The overall effect is refined, tobacco-rich, and enveloping, making it especially appealing to shoppers who prefer darker warm fragrances with a polished woody finish.
