Question:
Chergui is truly one of a kind... but today I feel that it is the shadow of Samsara less the femininity.

Answer:
Chergui was one of the first niche fragrances I ever sampled, so it doesn't remind me of anything. However, when I got my sample of Musc Ravageur Oil, IT reminded me of Chergui...plenty of difference between the two, but to my nose there was enough similarity to make the association.

You probably need to use Internet Explorer in order for the site to work properly, otherwise you might just see a few of the notes for each fragrance. Thanks, Pluran, that is a good reference.

Answer:
Chergui is totally unique and like no other to me. I love Ambre Narguile more but see nothing in common??Maybe others do?

Answer:
Just wore my sample of Chergui yesterday in the a.m. & the p.m. - I was a little under-impressed I have to say.
Own & love Ambre Sultan & Borneo 1834, but Chergui was just lot's of really nice honey notes in the middle for me, not much in the beginning & drydown. Disappointing.
On to the next Serge's...!

The closest I can think is that it is like Daim Blond and Datura Noir kissing one another on the cheek.
Can anyone pinpoint a frag that Chergui may be similar to? Reminds me of cheap aftershave.

Answer:
Chergui reminds me of L de Lolita but less sweet and a little less gourmand. I think I find a sweet tobacco note and a touch of dry hay in booth of them.
