Meander is appreciated by those who connect with its creamy, earthy vetiver profile and subtle sophistication, earning praise as a personal favorite despite mixed community reception. However, it's widely noted for disappointing longevity and performance, and some feel it doesn't match the caliber of Amouage's classic collection, making it a 'lesser' house release. The fragrance appeals most to individualists who prioritize personal joy over widespread recognition or sillage.

Hacivat is a divisive fragrance with strong performance and a sophisticated drydown, but its polarizing scent profile means it either resonates deeply with wearers or disappoints them. The opening pineapple-citrus blast is prominent but fades quickly, leaving an oakmoss woody base. Many find it too strong and go noseblind easily, though fans appreciate its quality and year-round versatility.
