    What do reviewers say about Patchouliful and Chergui?

    Patchouli tends to divide rooms. Patchouliful does something cleverer, it keeps the depth but ditches the dirt. Bright enough to wear in spring, warm enough to carry into autumn.Patchouliful
    If you want the Moroccan desert in a bottle, this is it. Tobacco, honey, and incense create something rugged yet sweet. Not for those who prefer clean, aquatic fragrances.Chergui
