What do reviewers say about Volcanic Flowers and Black Afgano?
This is for someone who wants a fragrance with an opinion. Coffee and jasmine together is either brilliant or baffling, no middle ground. Volcanic Flowers doesn't play it safe.Volcanic Flowers
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
