Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Chergui Eau de Parfum
Chergui is divisive - a curious, compelling classic that evokes strong feelings, from adoration to polite dismissal. Some find it a masterpiece of honeyed tobacco, others a challenging, powdery affair, but it certainly isn't boring.

Our Verdict - Absolue Pour le Soir Eau de Parfum
This is MFK's most divisive creation, a love-it-or-hate-it beast. Some find it a masterpiece of alluring, dirty honey, while others recoil from its intense animalic character. Not for the faint of heart, it's either pure magic or a scrubber.
