What do reviewers say about La Couche du Diable and Sahara Noir?
Some fragrances ask you to like them. This one doesn't. The oud and labdanum open like a dare, and the saffron keeps you guessing. You either meet it or you don't. Either way, it lasts.La Couche du Diable
This is not a quiet fragrance. The frankincense and oud drydown commands space, and the beeswax note will either fascinate you or remind you of a church you once attended.Sahara Noir
