    It takes awhile before you really tune into the scent of snuff. Different scents last different lengths of time. Some are very fleeting, and others last forever. I can use snuff to replace snus, but I prefer not to. A pinch every 15 minutes or so should keep the nicotine demons away.

As well Toque is all natural, I believe, so the scents don't linger for very long. They do the trick for me, but I don't like snuffs based on drinks or food that isn't a fruit flavor. The menthol snuffs tend to linger longer. McChrystals makes some nice snuffs, though I hate their cans, and from what I've tried their snuff is fluffy and moist and the scent stays with you for a bit. As for feeling the nicotine, I'd suggest going with a toast or scotch.
    Well I did get spanish gem. I guess that would be a more traditional flavor? I also got cherry menthol and coke. The rest is all vanilla/chocolate/blueberry champagne espresso etc.

    But spanish gem and cherry menthol are undetected by me past the first sniff. I've tried huge pinches, just touching the top of the snuff with my finger and sniffing that, and everything between. Same result every time. 5 seconds of a nice scent followed by nothing.

    How long does a "typical" scent last? I guess I was looking to try snuff so I could use slightly less snus. I figured when i wanted some snus I would be able to take a nice pinch of snuff and have a nice scent in my nose for about 15 minutes and more nicotine to stretch out those snus orders. Perhaps I had the wrong idea about how snuff worked?

    It takes awhile for your nose to be "trained" to absorb more nicotine from snuff. At first I didn't feel too much nicotine from it but now I go long stretches between snus or dip using just snuff. Also, the nicotine impacts you differently, it's more of a short quick hit as opposed to a long, steady nicotine delivery. It just takes a bit of time to get used to.

    Unfortunately I didn't order any florals (first order so I went with what i felt were beginners snuffs) Are there other brands that might offer a longer scent life? I havent been packing in 3 pinches per nostril but I have had some pretty big ones so far and there is just no scent after 15 seconds.

    I take three big pinches per side with Toque. His florals are full of long-lasting scent. Chocolate is kinda subtle. Just keep cramming it in yer nostril and you'll be doing it right.

    Am I missing something with nasal snuff?

    My 10 can sampler from toque arrived today. I rushed inside and cracked open the can of chocolate, remembered what everyone had told me and gently sniffed it into my nose. It was perfect. No coughing or sneezing or snuff in my throat. But it didn't seem like it was doing anything. There was no nicotine hit, and I can't smell anything. I've been taking snuff in and out all day now and I can't seem to be satisfied with it. When i originally sniff it into my nose I'll detect a faint scent of what the product is but 10 seconds later it is gone. No smell, no feeling of having nicotine in my body, nothing. Is this normal? Is snuff similar to fruit stripes gum where you don't "taste" or smell anything 10 seconds later? Am i doing something wrong?
