A long-time aromatic smoker, this one is not overpowering in any sense. You can taste the VA and Cavendish and a hint of the walnut actually makes itself gently felt throughout the bowl. The honey is definitely there, but the vanilla is very light indeed. A very mild smoke, it lights well and burns to a clean ash.

Wife rates it as very pleasant and smells like someone has been baking something - but not a sweet, overpowering room note.

Not my favorite Peterson, but a very pleasant smoke. I will keep this on in my rotation.

Peterson De Luxe Mixture belongs to a rare type of aromatic, that will allow you to enjoy tobacco taste and a fair amount of strength in coexistence with the added aromas. It is creamy, nutty and slightly sweet, but not annoyingly so. The mixture may develop some edge with the char light, which is going to smooth out after a couple of calm draws.

I liked it infinitely better after I aired it out a little and but it away for a couple of weeks. Pairs nicely with a hot cup of coffee in the afternoon.

Well if I had to pick an aromatic, this (or maybe sunset breeze) would be it. The roomnote makes girls sit on your lap, not in a sexual way, but to tell you what they want for christmas. It is balanced and very nice for the occasional smoker, or for an all day blend. It's my go to aromatic, but I don't smoke aromatics that often.

As a novice, I found this a thoroughly enjoyable smoke. It has a sweet, subtle tin note, and pretty much smokes like that for the whole bowl. I had no tongue bite and no lingering aftertastes.

You won't be disappointed, unless you are one of the steely-eyed 'elite smokers' who chew burley and smoke it at the same time.

This is nice to smoke slowly on a cold night on the verandah with your fav' alcoholic drink. Honey and walnut is the major aroma/tastes...the vanilla is very mild. I would buy this again.

This is one of the best aromatics I've ever tried. I bought myself a tin from the Peterson shop in Dublin. I finished it pretty fast, smoking a bowl of it every night. Smells wonderful in the tin and stays faithful to its aroma throughout the bowl. Very well balanced and in a perfect moisture level, it can be smoked immediately after opening. Burns evenly and cool, this blend will most certainly be appreciated by aromatic lovers as well as by people who are not so into Cavendish blends.

For me, this blend brings fond memories from the years I lived in Ireland.

I like this blend and I don't understand the amount of negative reviews this has gotten. If you don't like aromatics, then why review one and give it a horrible score? Makes no sense to me.

Letting this blend breathe out for a bit will make it 10 times better, from my experience. The smell and flavor comes out a lot more natural once it is aired out. Packing and lighting is easy. I just light, tamp, relight and forget about it.

Yes it's light, but you can still taste the tobacco in there, and it tastes, in my opinion, really good. The flavoring is also very nice - not too strong, not too light. Just the right amount of balance.

Recommended.

The aromatic lover may want to consider this a break time enjoyer; a short session benefits this blend well. It’s a bit rough around the edges, so a slow roll in cadence should lessen the mouse trap’s snap on the tongue. The vanilla, walnut, and honey fuse harmoniously in aroma and in flavor - warm, bitter, and sweet. The result is a slightly earthy and delectable smoke. Little bowl moisture. Can bite.

This i liked. Very pleasant tobacco with a pound cake aroma. Tastes like vanilla and honey with the walnut popping in and out. Sweet on the tongue and in the air. This can be an all dayer if your into it. Leaves pipe clean too. This and Luxury Blend are Pete"s two best aros imo.

This is my first shot at pipe smoking. I was recommended by my tobacconist to start with aromatics and this was his choice.

Straight up from the tin there is a hint of vanilla and caramelish scent(pardon a novice's nose). I could'nt find the walnut though it was stated on the label.

My first try was horrendous with plenty of tongue bite (my fault naturally). I could not taste anything but during subsequent smokes I managed to enjoy the hint of sweetness from the flavouring (still deciding what is it). The smoke emitted could be rather thick in my opinion.

Room note is pleasant. The sweet scent is not overpowering and enjoyed by non-smoker.

One thing I like about De Luxe Mixture is the caramelish smell that lingers on my moustache once I'm done. I think this is a good start for beginners to learn about aromatics. Waiting for my orders from smokingpipes.com.
