The community shows deeply divided opinions on Arquiste fragrances overall, with Indigo Smoke being particularly polarizing. While some appreciate the creative tea note and unique character, many find the scents off-putting or poorly constructed, with performance issues in cooler temperatures. Fragrance preference appears highly subjective within this house.
