The community views 17 Oud Mosaic as an acceptable budget-friendly introduction to oud fragrances, but consensus is that it's not worth going out of your way for. Banana Republic fragrances in general are seen as secondary to their clothing line, with opinions suggesting potential appreciation only after extended wear or personal taste evolution.

Montblanc Individuel is a polarizing budget fragrance that delivers good performance and compliments for the price, but divides the community on its synthetic dryer-sheet character. Users appreciate it as a safe, inoffensive office scent, though some find it lacking in depth and complexity, with concerns about longevity and projection consistency.
