Crystal Saffron is a polarizing niche fragrance with outstanding longevity that divides the community. While admirers appreciate its unique, weird metallic-saffron profile and beast-mode performance, detractors find it overly synthetic and too strong for practical wear, with many questioning whether the premium price justifies its existence given similar alternatives available.
