    What do reviewers say about Chergui and Reve d'Encens?

    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
    Rose doesn't soften incense here. It refines it, adds an elegance that turns smoky warmth into something a jeweler would recognize. If you've been burned by heavy orientals.Reve d'Encens
