Which Should You Buy?
Don't let the fruit fool you; this is a dark, dry, mysterious leather beast. It's a surprisingly sophisticated and superb value offering from Armaf that’s winning over even the most cynical frag-heads. Truly a pleasant surprise.
This one's a proper grower, isn't it? Initially a bit sharp, but give it half an hour and you're in for a warm, spicy, leather-oud treat. It's a statement piece once it settles, no doubt about it.
