    What do reviewers say about Agarwoud and Timbuktu?

    An oud for people who think they don't like oud. It keeps the resinous depth but strips the heaviness, Bulgarian rose lifts the whole composition into something unexpectedly clean. Controversial take?Agarwoud
    Timbuktu rewards patience. The mango opening is genuinely unusual for its time, and the incense-karo karounde heart requires an open mind, but the vetiver-benzoin drydown is pure class.Timbuktu
