Avant l'Orage from Maison Matine is a polarizing fragrance with a prominent tonka and vanilla base that appeals to some but disappoints others. The scent's composition appears highly dependent on skin chemistry, with some experiencing the intended profile while others detect unpleasant sour or off-notes. It seems best suited for those willing to test it first and potentially layer it with complementary fragrances.

Gris Charnel receives divided opinions within the community. While some are optimistic about the new Extrait de Parfum concentration and appreciate the unique spiced character, others find the original too sour or experience minimal fig presence. The fragrance appeals to niche enthusiasts but lacks consensus as a mainstream fig fragrance recommendation.
