Looks like you have some good suggestions. Jump into my IMP Giveaway, I have a decent selection of things to send you.

I am a huge fan of B&BW Summer Boardwalk scent. I got this in hopes it was similar, and it is! Sweet, nutty, and popcorn. Very fun, evocative scent.

I get peach and patchouli. I suppose the amber and citrus could be working together to make things peachy. This is super pretty. I wouldn't recommend it for tobacco or citrus lovers, but fruity + patchouli lovers.

I got this for me for the tobacco. It didn't smell much of tobacco, so I let my husband try it. It smells nice, but it's just a tad too sweet on him. On him, I get the leather and musk, and I think the ambergris is sweetening it up. It's really pretty, but it's just not a scent either of us would wear.

I'm glad I finally got to try this! The rosewood is definitely apparent, with something powdery hanging out around the edges. I would guess the osmanthus. The sandalwood and peach are in the background, but I wouldn't be able to pick them out if I didn't know they were there. It's not quite as nuanced on me as some other people found it to be, and I'm ok with that. It's nice to finally have a somewhat straightforward rosewood scent.

I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestion or combo suggestions for recreating Aegir. Lucchesa describes it as a "languid lavender", and maybe the lavender lovers know of something similar?

Atsui-Mono is a must-try for fig lovers. This is such a creamy blend. Just gorgeous.

Sweet Christmas pudding with black cherries soaked in vanilla-drizzled amaretto. This is so nice! Not really boozy, like I was expecting. I'd say Christmas pudding with black cherries is accurate though. It's not too sweet or in your face. It's just a nice, light cherry/vanilla kinda smell. It feels more like the smell leans on the atmospheric side of things, rather than foodie. But I love foodie, so maybe I'm not the best person to identify that.

This started out sweet, caramely cookies/candy. I can see the distinction in the masculine drydown, though. I think Zankoku_zen nailed it, a foodie pirate blend is accurate! Eta: Goes well with Pumpkin Spice Silkybat HG, IMO.

Wet: on me, I get the coffee, but I feel like it's more diner coffee than any type of espresso. Then a cleaner fluid of some sort starts to emerge. I know I'm making this sound horrible so far, but it's not that bad. I think it's the cardamom and cheap coffee pairing up to smell like lemony cleaner. That, or my nose is on the fritz again. Dry: the cardamom comes more to the stage. The coffee seems to have disappeared. It's like a cardamom-heavy pumpkin chai. Not quite what I was expecting, but nice nonetheless.

Goblin Stampede is another suggestion, which I think is still available for the Trading Post on Etsy right now. You have to like cardamom, though.

It's fun, but I really just smell generic maple syrup. I'm not getting anything as nuanced as previous posters. I'll try again later.

I'll be honest, I ordered this just for the artwork! And I saw that it had notes that would work for me. This was surprisingly really enjoyable. It's just light and sweet enough to enjoy any time of the year, and strong enough to stick around for hours. I think the musk and patchouli are really the one notes that standout the most to me. The pepper keeps it from being overly sweet. I think this would make a great perfume, as well.

Spicy, appley, and buttery. Like a really happy apple candle. I feel horrible categorizing it that simply, but being the apple lover I am, I feel like I have something similar in my collection. I don't think I would expect pancakes out of this, but if you think about it hard enough, you could imagine them.

Wow, I really amped the tobacco on this, and I wasn't expecting to. It starts out warm, sweet tobacco with peppercorn around the edges. It's not harsh, it's sweeter than I would guess from these notes. I initially was going to skip it because cognac usually smells gross on me, but this seems to work. I don't know if it's the musk or the wood that's helping the cognac to work on me. This actually reminds me a lot of Fortuna Annonaria. I think the musk is making this a bit cosier than Annonaria, but it's still that sweet, chewy tobacco that I super enjoy. If you missed Annonaria, give this a try.

Classy perfume is a good way to categorize this. When I put it on, I didn't remember any of the notes. It was sweet, and fruity, with the amber bringing a certain perfumey quality to it. On me, it dried down to a generic sweet perfume. No notes really standout, and i have to get really close to my skin to smell it.

This is from the 2019 version. Wet: I definitely get the scent memory of heading to the beach, which is odd given the notes. I guess that's what red leather does on me? That kinda musky, coconutty sunscreen vibe. dry: I was super hesitant given that honey amps on me. I'm pleasantly surprised that the leather doesn't let it take over. I do enjoy the smell of this wet vs. dry, though. It's a close-to-the-skin scent when it dries. It also becomes less diverse. I get mostly dry honey and sun-warmed leather that's dried out.

Slushy, soapy snow drowns anything else in it. If there is a hint of Snake Oil, I don't pick it up. In fact, I'm a bit surprised by how much the snow note seems to amp on my skin.

For me, the vetiver is far in the background. This smells like Lemon Sugar Cookies to me. Sweet and yummy!

Wet: I can definitely smell the crushed herbs. It's like vanilla and a mish-mash of various herbs. And they are fighting to dominate. Drydown: I can see the candy sweetness mentioned before. This is very light, a great spring smell that isn't overpowering. Super easy to wear.

Yep, this is definitely foodie. I usually amp honey, but I'm not for this one. Marzipan is coming to mind, but it's not directly almond. It's most just sweet cookie.

Chewy tobacco with a hint of patchouli. It's a bit sweet, but the tobacco takes over on my skin. It's wonderful if you enjoy the toffee/tobacco/patchouli blends. It's pretty loud and sticks around for a while.

I smell cookies and hazelnut straight away. Nothing burned, and the coffee isn't strong to my nose. This is superb.

Maybe I need to go to NYCC for these event exclusives since they always impress me. I'm really surprised not to see more reviews. Styrax. Benzoin. I don't really know the difference, but it seems to make most blends not work for me, so I tend to avoid it. This was great on me for 10 minutes during the drydown stage. It smells like an oldish apple candle with old wreath smell that happens to be sitting in the laundry room. This smells just like my aunt's laundry room in her old historic home. Slightly sweet, clean, and fruity, with some woodiness rounding it out. It's nice, but I don't think I would be quick to recommend this to apple fans. I can see this being a better room spray.

Update: Gacela of the Dark didn't quite work, but The Cross of the Snow was pretty close!
