Which Should You Buy?
Black Phantom is the Marmite of gourmands: a divisive, love-it-or-hate-it scent. Expect a journey from boozy, bitter darkness to sweet, seductive warmth. It's not a safe blind buy, so sample it before you commit.
This one's a divisive brew; a love-it-or-hate-it gourmand rollercoaster. Expect dark chocolate, coffee, and booze, but beware of the 'Play-Doh' or 'vomit' notes some unlucky souls detect. Macere it if you dare, because the payoff can be stunning, if you get a good batch.
