What do reviewers say about Fortis and Black Afgano?
Most oud fragrances play it safe. Fortis doesn't. The cumin in the opening is a statement, earthy, animal, a little unapologetic. That's the whole appeal.Fortis
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
