    What do reviewers say about Cuir Kora and Casbah?

    The mango-leather pairing shouldn't work. Fruit and hide feel like a mismatch, until you smell it. Then it clicks. Wild and woody, warm from the first minute, but it doesn't shout.Cuir Kora
    The angelica gives Casbah a green, almost bitter edge that makes the smoke actually interesting. You notice it in the opening, where the sharp herb cuts through the spice, and you notice it later.Casbah
