Good luck.
I am not a smoker so not familiar with the scent of Golden Virginia kamyon but agree with celestino that Sweet Briar smells like a nice pipe tobacco.
I did a short custom soap run some time ago with Eric from DapperDragon that turned out great called Obi Hill. More info here.
It is a great tobacco based scent and it is my understanding that Eric plans on a LE run sometime in the future as there was a decent amount of interest from the community.
I was also able to pick up some Roam in Will's Barrister_N_Mann limited production run last month and can't wait for it to come in too. Tobacco, smoke and leather + the new Glissant base is going to be close to perfect!
Good luck!

I do enjoy the occasional cigar but I don't tend to like straight up tobacco scents but do like them in a blend and it is for this reason I love the sound of Opi Hill and will be getting some.
I also have MW Sweet Briar coming in a order soon which I am intrigued to try.

Has it really been so long? I had to come back to this thread as I've finally discovered a new tobacco soap which may be what I was seeking during many years of failed attempts. I just posted this review on Maggards so thought I would share it here as well.
Henri et Victoria – Cognac and Cuban Cigars
I have been seeking the perfect tobacco scent for years and have tried many samples and pucks mostly ending in disappointment. This is the only time I have ever stocked up on a soap.
Firstly be aware the many different tobacco scents from floral, green, dried, and cured such as in unlit cigars and pipe tobacco. My quest has always been for the beautiful aromatic pipes from my childhood. I would often seek out who was smoking their pipe and want to follow or sit beside them. When entering the humidor at the local tobacconist you would get that big blast of wood and cured, aromatic tobacco. This is warm, well rounded scent reminiscent of the wood lined humidor filled with spicy, aromatic tobacco. I don't get a boozy or grape scent from the cognac really. Nor is this a cologne scent trying to capture the scene. The scent strength is medium so it is noticeably during the shave and for a short while after. It is unlike any other tobacco soap I've come across.
