    Real talk

    Some smell incense and resins in Herat's hashish note. Others perceive something closer to actual sticky green. Either way, this fragrance isn't designed for the faint of heart.Herat
    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
