I was reluctant to try the Toque florals, since I am not much of a floral fan. But I went ahead and got some, based on some reviews. I am very glad I did. Toque Rose is magic to my nose. The scent is quick, strong, clear and natural. It fades gently into an interesting and pleasant honeymoon with the great Toque tobacco scent. Go outdoors, and the flowers come back. It is very gentle on my sensitive snout. I can and do enjoy it all day. It does not make me run like a faucet or sneeze 79 times. The scent does not cloy. The grind is of the perfect measure, so it behaves on the way in and during it’s stay, and also has quick effect. I love this snuff! 5 of 5 stars.
I totally agree with that review, sprangalang. I enjoy all the Toque florals, and Violet was my favourite for a long while, but (thanks to you!) now that I’m reacquainted with Rose, I think it just has the edge.
Yes, I agree too. I did not order the Rose when it became available, only Lavender and Violet. When I did get the Rose, I immediately ordered another tin because I knew the first one wasn’t going to last long!
I never tried Toque, but recently placed an order for one Natural and one Original (looks kinda silly in writing ha ha) But I like most snuffs, as long as they aren’t mentholated. I see that Pieter posted here, and I won’t miss the opportunity to apologize for dissing Schmalzler - recently especially Perlesreuter has begun growing on me, as have Brazil Doppel.
The only florals I’ve tried, were these nasty little square, yellow plastic boxes - English maker, can’t remember the name of the brand. They were too chemical to me.
Superb, to say the very least.
Viking you really are missing out as a pinch of Toque Rose is akin to a kiss from an angel.
I didn’t care for it, but I mixed it with some Toque Menthol, and I do like that.
I didnt like it first, but roses grow slowly.
Can’t wait to try it. Love the smell of roses. And toque seems to be spot on in general. Though not sure how much the orginal smells like orginal.
I love florals. Favourite one at the moment is the Violet, but that may change once the Lavender from Roderick arrives.
Just on a whim I included a tin in an order a month or so ago. I didn’t really think I’d like a floral but found myself ordering a 100 gr bag shortly after. I’ve turned around and back tracked 6-7 miles back home because I’d forgotten the Rose and a night at work without it would have been endless. I love this stuff! Its a fresh clean natural scent and very relaxing. Now I can see myself trying a 400 gr bag soon. I’ve tried Lavender & Violet but they just didn’t do anything for me and the only other Rose I’ve tried (WOS) was fine at first snuff but seems to have a nasty chemical after taste.
I have found that the Toque Rose is phenomenal when a few pinches are added to a hand rolled smoke, and the residue snuffed of course. All i need is some rose colored glasses!!!
Mmmm - rose flavoured rollies? I’ll have to give that a try later!
they’re great!!!
