Black Phantom is a divisive gourmand fragrance with strong performance that appeals to some but disappoints others who find it too cloying and overly hyped. Community members appreciate its unique rum and burned sugar character but note it often underperforms against expectations set by its reputation.

Tobacco Vanille is a highly polarizing fragrance that divides the community. Fans praise its warm vanilla sweetness and longevity, while detractors find the tobacco note too reminiscent of cigarette smoke, particularly if they grew up avoiding secondhand smoke. Performance and tolerance appear to have declined with reported reformulations.
