The r/fragrance community has a decidedly mixed but leaning-positive view of Toy Boy. While praised for its quality, unique composition, and daring profile that differentiates it from mainstream fragrances like Sauvage, the dominant point of contention is the rose note's prominence and how differently people perceive it. Some find it masculine and spicy with subtle rose, while others experience it as rose-forward or soapy, making it a fragrance that heavily depends on individual nose chemistry and preferences.
