Yardley English Rose is recognized by the r/fragrance community as a solid, affordable rose fragrance that is pleasant and wearable for daily use. While it receives praise for its accessibility and decent quality for the price, it is generally considered less complex and pure than dedicated rose soliflores, making it a practical choice rather than a standout fragrance for serious rose enthusiasts.

Mugler Alien is a divisive fragrance with a passionate but divided fanbase. While dedicated fans praise its distinctive jasmine character and strong performance, a significant portion of the community finds it overhyped, with the Goddess flanker particularly criticized for having an unpleasant sunscreen-like quality. The fragrance's polarizing nature makes it a risky blind buy despite its iconic status.
