    What do reviewers say about Black Afgano and Marrakesh?

    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
    Cumin in the drydown isn't an accident, it's the whole point. If you've been looking for a bold, smoky Oriental that doesn't soften its edges, this is the one. Intense? Yes.Marrakesh
