If you enjoy perfumy, floral snuffs, I think you'll love this one. Easy on the nose - no burn, despite its fine grind. It's a light brown color with medium moisture. I take French Carotte as a dessert treat, sometimes first thing in the morning when I'm feeling like being good to myself, and sometimes late in the evening when I'm looking for a nice pick-me-up. The flavor sticks well and this one has a definite nicotine kick, which I appreciate. This is certainly not an all day snuff, but I do tend to enjoy it once or twice every day. Really, if you like sweet snuffs you should give French Carotte a try. I will reorder when my tin gets low. Courtesy of Snuff Reviews: David Larson |
Fine, medium snuff. I find that it keeps moving up my list of favourites. It is easy to take without fear of burn or hitting the throat. The first scent is a nice musky sandalwood followed by a floral bouquet. I don't find it to be perfumy at all, its not overpowering. Lasts a long time.
Nice, aromatic, pretty mellow, not too heady. This is a good one to try. My contention is that you should give this a whirl, if nothing else you will know if you like it or not, by doing so you just might have a better feel for the British snuffs. Some of these F&T's are way too heady for me- but this has the balance and reserve to make it really quite nice! Imo this is much better than the Wilson's of Sharrow French Carrote- which I just can't do. If you can't handle the Bordeaux or the Macouba (like me), you might still like this.
This is a great sweet snuff. I can taste the sandlewood, but the floral notes are had to pick out. Moisture is nice, Nic hit is great. I could use this most of the day because I enjoy it so much. Also like the F&T tins.

Heavily scented, fine ground with medium moisture content. Overall scent is musky and floral. Some have described F&T's French Carotte as overwhelmingly like grandmother's perfume. I can understand this comparison but have found that with a larger dose it reminds me less of grandma and more of a fine autumn evening. This blend has definately grown on me as I make my way through the tin.
