The CDG fragrance community is highly passionate and loyal, with particular praise for the Incense line (especially Avignon and Kyoto) and signature scents like CDG 2. While customers appreciate the brand's originality, affordability, and quality, major frustrations include weak performance/longevity and chronic availability issues, particularly in the US. The brand maintains a dedicated fanbase despite limited social media presence and marketing.

The r/fragrance community has polarized opinions on Black Orchid, with many praising its unique dark, artistic character and exceptional longevity, while others find the heavy patchouli and earthy base off-putting. Most wearers report getting compliments when wearing it in the right context, though it requires careful application due to its extreme strength and works best as an occasional evening fragrance rather than daily wear.
