I am indeed. They send them to me from NYC, which is only about 90 miles away, so I guess I'm in a good location.

I have indeed tried Chergui. If you like cinnamon, you MAY like it. I thought it was weird though. It smelled like it should be deep and rich, and yet it felt papery thin. It was also really sweet. I don't mind sweet, especially considering that I'm a gourmand freak, but it felt like it was more sweet than it should be. Out of those I only tried Un Bois Vanille. I like vanilla, but I wasn't crazy about that one. It smelled oddly waxy.
