    Well I do not know...
    First of all, as you may know there are two main systems of classification of perfumes: the traditional and the modern (created by a dude Something Edwards). I do not like the traditional simply because there are redundant families. Also, I feel there is so much confusion on the Chypre genre. I still do not know what it is What I do know is that under this system, tobacco belongs to the family of leathers.

    In the modern system, the answer would be that it depends.
    D&G would be Aromatic/Fougere.
    The Dreamer would probably be Gourmand or Soft oriental
    Havana and Cuba (the name make you wonder who's the copycat) would probably belong to the Floral Oriental.
    Last time I smelled Hammam Bouquet I got a lot of tobacco. So that would be a floral
