What do reviewers say about Gentry Jockey Club and Black Afgano?
The leather-saffron pairing is not for the faint-hearted. But the iris and vetiver keep it from feeling harsh, adding a powdery, animalic depth that lingers close and demands attention.Gentry Jockey Club
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
