    What do reviewers say about Ashoka and Chergui?

    Ashoka isn't trying to win you over in the first spray. That green-fierce opening either lands immediately or doesn't, but the payoff is the softly floral heart that comes after.Ashoka
    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
