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.

Grand Soir is widely praised by the r/fragrance community as an exceptional niche fragrance with a strong opening that develops into a sophisticated amber-vanilla composition. The community strongly recommends sampling before purchasing (MFK offers 6 samples for €14) and notes that while it's not similar to Carlisle, it's a masterfully crafted scent with impressive longevity that many consider a collection essential.
