Description
Smokilla is a rich, smoky extrait from Bujairami built around Tabac leaf and vanilla. Tabac leaf opens it, vanilla, cacao, tonka bean and Tabac blossom form a velvety heart, and dried fruits with woody notes give it a dark, plush base. It wears as unisex. Choose it if you love deep, cosy winter scents with a sweet, honeyed smoke that never turns harsh.
The Scent Journey
The Opening
Tabac leaf leads from the first spray. It smells dense and honeyed rather than ashy, like a pouch of dried leaf opened in a warm room. The start is bold and warm, and it tells you straight away what kind of scent this is.
The Heart
Vanilla softens the leaf with a creamy sweetness, and cacao adds a dark, slightly bitter chocolate note. Tonka bean brings a nutty warmth, and Tabac blossom keeps a soft, floral smokiness running through the middle. The heart feels thick and velvety, like a heavy winter coat.
The Dry Down
Dried fruits come through in the base with a figgy, raisin-like richness that feels a little festive. Woody notes add a dry frame underneath, so the sweetness stays grounded. The finish is warm, plush and close, and it lingers on scarves and collars.
Fragrance Notes

Longevity and Performance
Smokilla is an extrait de parfum, the more concentrated of the two Bujairami strengths. Tabac and vanilla bases tend to hold well, so expect a rich, noticeable trail early on and a warm, smoky layer that stays with you into the evening. Clothing often holds it into the next day. Extrait sits closer to the skin than eau de parfum, so it feels dense rather than loud. Skin, weather and spray count all affect the result.
When to Wear It
Smokilla is suited to autumn and winter. Cold air brings out the honeyed Tabac and the dried fruit, and it feels cosy rather than heavy on a frosty night.
It fits evening events, festive dinners, nights by the fire and dressed-up dates. Two sprays are often enough, as extrait strength goes a long way. Add a third to a scarf for a long night out.
Smokilla Within the Bujairami Collection
Smokilla is sold out at the moment. For Tabac leaf with coconut, saffron and sugar cane, try Vice City. If you want a darker blend of spiced amber, white Tabac and myrrh, Mafia Boss is a close match. You can see everything in stock in the full Bujairami collection.
The Inspiration
Bujairami lists Smokilla as inspired by Tobacco Vanille by Tom Ford. Expect a similar mood and note direction rather than an exact match, since every fragrance house works with its own materials and formula.
Tobacco Vanille and Tom Ford are trade marks of their respective owners. Bujairami and Bujairami Scents are not affiliated with, or endorsed by, Tom Ford. We name it only to describe the scent style.
