Hey guys my fiance and I were wondering if you guys knew of a floral scented snuff that resembled lilac flowers?
I haven’t heard of an exclusively lilac-scented snuff, but would most certainly like to try one.
I would like to find one also, my mom used to grow lilacs, it would remind me of home.
Hmm I have a lilac bush right outside, Do I use whole Flowers. I guess I will have to experiment. Have some virginia flake pipe tobacco, hmm. edm
wow if you come up with something @mustangii PLEASE let me test it for you-- my fiance and I are in deep search of this! hehe
I’ve had good sucess dropping flowers into a closed container with some Toque Natural. I have a number of citrus trees and used those flowers last year (or maybe it was the year before). I tried both lemon and lime flowers. The lemon had a stronger scent, and made for a better snuff. This year my orange tree is flowering like mad, but I’m not playing with snuff right now. Anyway, the process works if you just let the snuff absorb the flowers’ scent. I have a few lilac bushes too, but its still too early for them. I also have some vibernum and cherrry laurel which have awesome scents.
Lilac is a nice scent i’d like to try( if it still had an underlying tobacco scent.) I will try your method on Sassafras root bark scrapings, Xander. I collect them every Spring and brew a bit of tea to thin the blood. Sassafras snuff sounds appealing to me
When I was young root beer was made from sassafras roots. The stuff they make now doesn’t taste anything like it or have the same mouth feel. Real root beer snuff, yum.
I guess ‘real’ Sassafras is somewhat outlawed now and found to be harmful. Maybe that’s why I’m drawn to it,LOL! Here’s an interesting clip…not to stray OT, but pertains to tobacco : “During the establishment of the Virginia Colony, including Jamestown in the seventeenth century, sassafras was a major export commodity to England. A medicinal root and a wood prized for its beauty and durability, sassafras was popular from its first import by Sir Walter Raleigh in 1602 until the eighteenth century.[13] There was a brief period of time in the early seventeenth century in which sassafras was the second largest export from America behind tobacco.”
I used to teach at an outdoor school in Ohio in the spring and I would teach the kids a secret handshake where you made the three shapes of the sassafras leaves with your hand, as a way of making the identification of the tree stick. Love that smell.
Is there even a snuff that is, in part, scented w/lilac?
I would love to know as well, we have some lilac trees in our backyard that smell awesome when they flower!
Sassafras sounds like a good snuff. Like Bart, I think I’ll dig some up and render myself some flavoring to experiment with 
I would definately try some lilac snuff if any is ever available. Should be awesome as long as it isn’t super concentrated like the rose snuffs I have tried.
@Rocktopus and Pennanngalan: Historical Lugano snuff was sauced with a sauce containing extract of Sassafras wood
Jaap Bes.
It doesn’t surprise me that at least one snuff had Saffafras in it. Thanks Jaap.
So…I have made 2 micro-batches of the sassafras snuff. The second stronger than the first (a third even stronger coming up soon). The sassafras mixes with SG Red Crest in a very pleasant manner. Very nice summer scent during the dull winter months.
