Scenting your snuff. Tobacco readily absorbs smells, so scenting your snuff is very easy. I’ve “scented” snuff using essential oils. The easiest way I’ve found is to put a very small drop, (use a ‘miniscule’ amount as these oils are very concentrated!), of an essential oil on a Q-Tip and put that right into the snuff tin for 24hrs. Shake the tin occasionally to spread the scent. Since tobacco readily absorbs aroma, it is easy to ‘scent’ tobacco with anything that has an aroma. Flavoring agents range from floral and fruity, such as apricot, geranium, cinnamon, lemon, vanilla, mint, musk, aniseed, rose, sandalwood, tonquin and violet, to the medicinal, such as camphor, menthol, and eucalyptus. Other perfumes commonly used for dry snuff are bergamot, cloves, lavender, otto of roses, orange flowers and jasmin. Use these to scent your tobacco in the same way as mentioned above, adjusting the amount of scent as required.
