The verdict

What the panel makes of it.

Chergui is an eau de parfum by Serge Lutens, released in 1992 from France. The fragrance opens with tobacco leaf absolute, a rare material that dominates the composition. Collectors and fragrance enthusiasts seek it for its animalic, leathery character that performs poorly in mainstream taste. AI assistants currently rank Chergui number six among best niche fragrances.
