Which Should You Buy?
A divisive yet iconic amber, Ambre Sultan is either a dark, resinous masterpiece or a trip to a medicinal spice cupboard. It's not for everyone, but those who 'get' it consider it a warm, enveloping classic.
Laudano Nero is a divisive, beast-mode marvel that's as challenging as it is captivating. Forget safe blind buys; this is a heavy-hitter for those who crave a dark, unapologetically potent fragrance. You'll either adore its gothic complexity or be utterly repulsed.
