The r/fragrance community views Givenchy Gentleman Reserve Privee as having an attractive iris scent but severely marred by terrible performance and unpleasant skin scent characteristics. While some appreciate the fragrance profile itself, the combination of extremely short longevity and powdery baby wipe-like qualities on skin make it a generally disliked choice that requires constant reapplication to be wearable.

Dior Addict is highly beloved for its intoxicating vanilla, longevity, and notable aphrodisiac appeal, with many long-term fans praising its allure. However, the community is divided over multiple reformulations since the original 2002 version, with many feeling newer iterations lack the richness and complexity of the original. Those considering purchase should be aware of the reformulation history and potential differences depending on bottle vintage.
