Serge Lutens Louve is recognized by the r/fragrance community primarily for its notable almond note, which serves as a reference point for comparing other fragrances. While appreciated by those seeking distinctive gourmand scents, the fragrance receives limited direct discussion, suggesting a smaller but dedicated following rather than mainstream popularity.

Hypnotic Poison is a divisive fragrance with devoted fans and skeptics. While older formulations were praised for depth and longevity, recent batches are noticeably weaker and reformulated. The scent's gourmand profile (almond, vanilla) appeals to some but the initial notes (often described as root beer, playdough, or rubber) are off-putting to others, making it highly dependent on personal skin chemistry and preference.
