"Ybor City Sofrito" (Abuela's Heels - Tampa):
Notes of cherry, tobacco, vanilla, amber & musk.
Scent Profile: Sophisticated // Warm
Scent Strength: Medium
Tampa's Ybor City, once known as the "Cigar Capital of the World," was where Cuban, Spanish, and Italian immigrants rolled millions of cigars by hand in historic brick factories. Like a sofrito—the aromatic base of Latin cooking—Ybor City blended cultures into something rich and unforgettable. This room spray captures the essence of Ybor's cultural sofrito—sweet cherry tobacco smoke drifting past the Columbia Restaurant, flamenco beats echoing through brick streets, the rhythm of abuelas stripping tobacco leaves. The scent of cherry, tobacco, vanilla, and amber evokes the sophisticated blend of heritage, celebration, and craftsmanship that made Tampa's Ybor City legendary.
Our 4 oz room and linen sprays are handcrafted with high-quality fragrance oils and odor-eliminating technology that neutralizes unwanted scents rather than masks them. Safe for fabrics, linens, upholstery, car interiors, and pet beds. Made with natural components and phthalate-free fragrance—no harsh chemicals. Shake well before use.
