    What do reviewers say about Chergui and Magico Safrano?

    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
    The saffron opening either grabs you immediately or needs time to click. If it hooks you, you're in for a long ride, something that doesn't play safe.Magico Safrano
