Fou d'Absinthe

Which Should You Buy?
This one's a bit of a head-scratcher; some find it a captivating, masculine aroma perfect for evenings, while others get nothing but 'dryer sheets'. At this price point though, it's worth a dab just to see which side of the fence you land on.
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.
