Which Should You Buy?
Absolus Allegoria Tabac Sahara is a divisive beast: a love-it-or-hate-it explosion of sweet, smoky tobacco and jammy raspberry. It's not for the faint of heart, but those who 'get' it, absolutely adore its bold, sensual charm.
This one's a mixed bag - some find it an uplifting, modern fruity scent, while others are less impressed with its staying power and some get a medicinal note that completely ruins it. Definitely one to try before you buy.
