Which Should You Buy?
Divisive, intriguing, and undeniably unique, Black Sugar is a cult classic that demands patience. Its initial "burnt rubber" shock gives way to a truly addictive, dark gourmand experience that sets it apart from typical sweet offerings.
Phoenician Leather is a luxurious enigma that might baffle the uninitiated but seduce those who adore depth and complexity in their scents.
