Carlisle is a divisive fragrance within the community - those who enjoy it praise its artistic complexity, excellent longevity, and bridge between European and Middle Eastern perfumery styles. However, others find its heavy, all-at-once opening overwhelming or irritating, and it doesn't deliver the experience some expected based on comparisons to Layton. The fragrance rewards patience as it evolves throughout the day.

Angels' Share is a well-composed niche fragrance with an impressive scent profile of apple pie, cognac, and spice that genuinely resonates with many in the community. However, it's severely hampered by unpredictable performance—some experience strong projection while others find it barely noticeable—and longevity issues that appear batch-dependent. Despite these concerns, it maintains solid community appreciation and recognition.
