This new fragrance builds on the composition of STRONGER WITH YOU, the scent celebrating togetherness and unconditional, powerful love. STRONGER WITH YOU TOBACCO reveals a new, sensual, and majestic interpretation of the original fragrance, encapsulated in a deep red and gold bottle, for a warm, radiant effect.

A MAJESTIC, SMOKY BLEND

This warm, inviting fragrance infuses STRONGER WITH YOU’s fougère ambery signature with smoky, textured tobacco, crafting a new, sensual addition to the collection. Composed by Cécile Matton (MANE), the perfumer behind the original fragrance’s scent, STRONGER WITH YOU TOBACCO reveals the woody and ambery sensuality of a honeyed tobacco, captured in the intense and textured fougère structure.

The fragrance opens with notes of black pepper essence, whose fresh yet warm scent is experienced through clouds of incense notes and elemi resin. Together, these top notes create an intense, spicy effect.

At the heart is the tobacco absolute, unveiling an addictive new facet to STRONGER WITH YOU. The fragrance reveals tobacco’s sensuality as it blends with alluring notes of bold pimento and delicately spiced cinnamon leaves.

The base is a captivating combination of vanilla bourbon extract and a sugar-coated chestnut accord. These notes fuse with textured smoked guaiac wood, which lends strength, while balsamic benzoin resin intertwines with STRONGER WITH YOU TOBACCO’s amber notes. The vanilla bourbon, meanwhile, infuses the scent with its balsamic and floral aspect.

Among the fragrance’s natural ingredients is the black pepper essence, extracted from black pepper berries that are harvested before reaching maturity. The supercritical extraction of the berries captures the black pepper essence’s top notes, revealing its spicy, fresh, and peppery facets.

The tobacco absolute is obtained via a volatile solvent extraction of the tobacco leaves, before layering them with icing sugar to obtain the note.

The vanilla bourbon extract, meanwhile, is obtained via a specific extraction technique crafted for Armani beauty. The vanilla is sourced in the Sava region of Madagascar, via a solidarity sourcing program in collaboration with local NGO Fanamby. This program prioritizes suppliers who provide reliable work and income for vulnerable people, and diversifies revenues to improve local livelihoods, while supporting producers and encouraging local entrepreneurship.

A WARM, RADIANT RED BOTTLE

STRONGER WITH YOU TOBACCO is captured in the distinctive Emporio Armani STRONGER WITH YOU glass bottle, shaped with masculine refined lines and curves.

Reinvented for this new fragrance, the flacon is dressed in a radiant red tone to reflect its spice-infused ingredients and their sensorial, passionate effect. A motif of interlacing gold rings encircles the bottle to embrace its form. To enhance the glass’s intense red hue, the bottle is topped with STRONGER WITH YOU’s golden cap, adding a bold accent to the flacon.

Within the STRONGER WITH YOU TOBACCO bottle’s gold lettering, the word “tobacco” is printed in Arabic, inside the double “O” motif.
