Afterglow receives mixed feedback from the r/fragrance community. While some appreciate its soft, creamy skin scent quality and similarity to Glossier fragrances, the consensus criticizes its poor performance and short longevity as a major drawback. The scent itself is polarizing—some find it pleasant while others describe it as synthetic and sharp rather than the expected warm, sultry profile.

Glossier You is divisive in the fragrance community, primarily due to its post-reformulation performance. While the scent profile itself receives praise for being pleasant and wearable, the drastically reduced longevity (often just minutes to hours) makes it a poor value at its premium price point. Performance varies significantly between individuals, with some reporting all-day wear while others describe it as a fleeting whisper, creating widespread frustration about quality control.
