    What do reviewers say about Manoa and Chergui?

    Manoa is an amber that doesn't tiptoe. The ginger gives it a clean heat from the start, keeping the vanilla and opoponax from ever getting heavy. It's resinous, sweet, and warm.Manoa
    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
