What do reviewers say about 1828 and Fou d'Absinthe?
This is not a crowd-pleaser. The eucalyptus opening will polarize, and the pepper-heavy heart does not apologize for itself. If you want a polite citrus freshie, look elsewhere.1828
Some fragrances play it safe. Fou d'Absinthe leans in. Wormwood brings that particular green intensity absinthe is famous for, but the star anise and ginger warm it just enough to keep things.Fou d'Absinthe
