What do reviewers say about Berlin Soul and Fortis?
Bold, smoky, and unapologetic. The tobacco and oud don't whisper. You wear this when you want the room to know you're there, not to be polite about it.Berlin Soul
Most oud fragrances play it safe. Fortis doesn't. The cumin in the opening is a statement, earthy, animal, a little unapologetic. That's the whole appeal.Fortis
