Hawas for Him is a polarizing budget fragrance with strong performance and a pleasant fresh-fruity profile that appeals to younger wearers. However, community sentiment is divided on its excessive sweetness, synthetic quality, and femininity, with many feeling it's overrated and overpriced when sold above its typical $20-50 market value.

The community has a divided opinion on Afnan 9pm, with many warning against blind buying based on social media hype. While some love it and praise its value and performance, others find it overly sweet, synthetic, and headache-inducing. Newer batches reportedly require maceration (aging) to reach advertised performance levels, and excessive application can be off-putting in professional settings.
