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 is a seriously polarising scent: a syrupy, boozy tropical fruit blast that some find exquisitely complex and intoxicating, while others are utterly repulsed by what they describe as 'rotten fruit' or 'stale urine.' Not for the faint of heart, but addictive for the gourmand fiends.
