What do reviewers say about Larmes du Désert and Black Afgano?
If you're reaching for something that announces itself the moment you step through a door, look elsewhere. This is a fragrance for someone who understands that a slow reveal gets remembered far.Larmes du Désert
This is not a polite fragrance. Black Afgano opens harsh, almost aggressive with its hemp and green notes, then slowly reveals its smoky tobacco and coffee heart.Black Afgano
