    What do reviewers say about Douleur!2 and Chergui?

    This is the one that stays on your shirt for a year. The camphor-mint opening hits like medicine, bracing, astringent, cold at first. The oyster and civet drydown is where it all comes together.Douleur!2
    If you want the Moroccan desert in a bottle, this is it. Tobacco, honey, and incense create something rugged yet sweet. Not for those who prefer clean, aquatic fragrances.Chergui
