Black Saffron is generally well-regarded by the community as a strong, wearable leather fragrance with good longevity and a pleasant balance of fruity and floral notes. However, there is notable variation in how individuals experience the fragrance, with some finding it surprisingly weak or soapy, potentially due to skin chemistry or olfactory differences. Most enthusiasts praise its minimalist elegance and all-day performance.

Mojave Ghost is widely appreciated for its clean, bright, and ethereal scent profile, making it a favorite summer fragrance. However, the community is divided over longevity—the original EDP's weak skin performance frustrates many, though the newer Absolu version resolves this at the cost of losing some of the original's delicate character. Longevity varies significantly based on application method and individual nose blindness.
