    Real talk

    Most fougères play it safe. This one doesn't. The marine-oakmoss-animalic drydown is a deliberate choice, strange, dark, and compelling enough that people will stop you to ask what it is.Fougère Noire
    The civet and hyraceum are the whole point. They don't whisper. If you want polite tobacco, look elsewhere. Tabac Grande goes straight for the memory, pipe smoke, cognac on the breath.Tabac Grande
