What do reviewers say about Coeur De Noir and Black Afgano?
Coeur De Noir opens bold, dark rum, worn leather, tobacco leaves, the persistent smoke of birch tar. Together, these notes create an assertive composition that doesn't soften quickly.Coeur De Noir
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
