What do reviewers say about Deixis and Black Afgano?
Amber-vanilla fragrances often lean toward dessert or church notes. Deixis sidesteps both. The sweetness is present but abstracted, less literal vanilla.Deixis
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
