Mandarina Duck Black is a budget-friendly, sweet gourmand fragrance with decent longevity that opens like a creamsicle and dries down to sandalwood. While some appreciate it as a solid performer for the price, others find it unremarkable and too cloying, and availability issues suggest potential discontinuation.

L'Eau par Kenzo pour Homme is well-regarded as a fresh, light citrus aquatic fragrance with excellent note balance, particularly praised for its green pepper mid-note. The community appreciates its subtle performance and versatility, though availability issues and discontinuation concerns make it difficult to obtain. Users specifically note that the flanker versions sacrifice the original's balanced appeal with excessive woody notes.
