Is Smoke for the Soul better than Luxor?

Smoke for the Soul is a crisp, verdant bonfire in a forest clearing, heavy on birch and eucalyptus with a cannabis accord that reads as aromatic and green. Luxor is a roaring oud-and-incense chamber, all warm spice, animalic depth, and resinous myrrh. For raw atmospheric power and projection, Luxor takes it. For something leaner and more herbal, Smoke for the Soul is the call.

Pick Smoke for the Soul

Pick Smoke for the Soul if you want a smoky fragrance that breathes, the birch, eucalyptus, and mate keep it green and cool rather than dense and resinous.

Pick Luxor
