## Top reviews
- ★5/5 — Fall, Winter — "Well this is a big hitter from Serge Lutens and I'm yet to review it but as we come into the colder months this juice is essential. I remember being stuck between this and five o'clock au gingembre for my warming winter fragrance from Serge Lutens and this lost out...just. However, going back for another sniff I've realized (and I'm trying to tell my wallet) there's room for both of them in my lif…"
- ★5/5 — Spring, Fall — "Upon looking at the notes of Chergui, you would expect a sweet, warm and cosy scent. When in actual fact, Chergui is far fresher and brighter than I was expecting.

It smells foreign and familiar all at once; maybe if your idea of "exotic" is from the sumptuous illustrations in a well-worn book of fables from a far-away land. It's all lofty sandalwood, honeyed musks, and…"
- ★4/5 — "Interesting that i find this to be quite similar to hugo boss deep red but no one else has mentioned it. Ofcourse deep red is more powdery and feminine but i do find some extreme similarities between the 2, i just can't place it though🤔. This as a stand alone is very nice. The drydown is very powdery however which may deter some guys.  Okay so the drydown between this and hugo boss deep red are p…"
