Zukhruf Black

Which Should You Buy?
This one's a crowd-pleaser, a proper date-night stunner that’ll have everyone asking what you're wearing. Ignore the odd grumble about a plasticky note; the sillage is pure magic people are willing to fork out for.
Zimaya's Zukhruf Black is a divisive, intoxicating blend that's either a beastly clone of Sauvage Elixir or a headache in a bottle, depending on who you ask. It's a bold, spicy ride, but be warned - some find it sickeningly strong.
