Tabatchin(1930)

A tobacco-and-floral composition from Molinard, opening on bergamot and spices before a heart combining tobacco leaf and florals, closing on amber, musk, and leather. Its tobacco-leather structure follows the genre Caron's Tabac Blond had established a decade earlier, applying the smoky, dry accord within Molinard's own catalog. The name appears to be an invented, exotic-sounding coinage rather than a real word, consistent with the period's fashion for evocative pseudo-foreign fragrance names.
