Fou d'Absinthe

Which Should You Buy?
This is a polarizing one - some laud its sophisticated masculine charm, while others find its initial blast too aggressive or simply not their cup of tea. If you appreciate a traditional, dry, spicy green tobacco, it's worth a sniff, but expect some folks to recoil.
This one is a divisive but intriguing beast - a boozy, herbal forest floor that some will adore and others will dismiss as glorified aftershave. If you like a challenge and don't mind reapplying, Fou d'Absinthe is a uniquely charming, albeit fleeting, experience.
