Montabaco and its flankers are well-regarded within the community for quality and performance, with several users owning multiple versions. However, the brand's prohibitive pricing combined with poor sample availability and limited retail locations create significant barriers to discovery and purchase, frustrating even loyal customers of the house.

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.
