What About Pop received negative reception from the r/fragrance community, with the primary criticism being its heavy reliance on ethyl maltol, musk, and tonka bean notes that made it feel generic and derivative. The fragrance was grouped with other disappointing releases and the House of Oud brand itself was noted for inconsistent quality, creating skepticism about the brand's execution overall.
