Which Should You Buy?
Seriously divisive - some call it a masterpiece, others pure unadulterated stink. Expect to either love this beastly, smoky leather scent or hate it with every fibre of your being. Definitely not a safe blind buy, but remarkable value for those it clicks with.
Sacreste is a divisive beast: an unapologetically 'churchy' incense, for some it's a nostalgic spiritual journey, for others, it's a flat, sour, or even synthetic mess that conjures images of burnt sofas. Test before you commit, because this ain't for everyone.
