Meander is appreciated by those who connect with its creamy, earthy vetiver profile and subtle sophistication, earning praise as a personal favorite despite mixed community reception. However, it's widely noted for disappointing longevity and performance, and some feel it doesn't match the caliber of Amouage's classic collection, making it a 'lesser' house release. The fragrance appeals most to individualists who prioritize personal joy over widespread recognition or sillage.
