Botrytis by Ginestet is a highly regarded niche fragrance beloved for its warm, sweet, wine-like profile and excellent performance. However, its rarity, high cost, and discontinuation issues make it frustratingly difficult to obtain, with users expressing regret about not purchasing when available.

Hypnotic Poison is a divisive fragrance with devoted fans and skeptics. While older formulations were praised for depth and longevity, recent batches are noticeably weaker and reformulated. The scent's gourmand profile (almond, vanilla) appeals to some but the initial notes (often described as root beer, playdough, or rubber) are off-putting to others, making it highly dependent on personal skin chemistry and preference.
