What do reviewers say about Gateau Blackout and Chergui?
DS&Durga teamed with Idles frontman Joe Talbot and the result is exactly as uncompromising as you'd expect. Smoke meets cake, cherry meets ash, it's the fragrance equivalent of a band that refuses to.Gateau Blackout
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
