The fragrance community considers Bleecker Street a disappointing purchase, primarily due to its weak sillage and poor performance for the price. Multiple users report difficulty smelling the fragrance on themselves and others, with only skin-scent level detection. The consensus is that this Bond No. 9 offering underperforms expectations for its cost.

Aventus is respected within the r/fragrance community as a high-performing, universally compliment-worthy fragrance with revolutionary fruity chypre characteristics. However, opinions are divided on whether its premium price and personal wearability justify the hype, with many experiencing rapid nose blindness despite strong projection, and batch inconsistency creating variable experiences across users.
