Habdan is widely viewed as an underrated Parfums de Marly fragrance with a compelling caramelized apple opening and solid longevity (6-12 hours). However, the community notes the drydown can become mundane and generic, making it a good but not exceptional choice compared to other PDM offerings like Layton and Herod.

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.
