Baque is a challenging, complex fragrance with an unpleasant opening that evolves into an interesting tobacco-vanilla composition. The scent demands patience and appreciation for unconventional, realistic fragrances, making it suitable primarily for experienced collectors willing to tolerate its difficult start.

Grand Soir is widely praised by the r/fragrance community as an exceptional niche fragrance with a strong opening that develops into a sophisticated amber-vanilla composition. The community strongly recommends sampling before purchasing (MFK offers 6 samples for €14) and notes that while it's not similar to Carlisle, it's a masterfully crafted scent with impressive longevity that many consider a collection essential.
