Oltremare is a niche fragrance with an interesting rhubarb note that intrigues collectors, but it's challenging to source in smaller sizes and commands a premium price. The community recognizes it as worthwhile for brand exploration but suggests sampling alternatives like Hermès Eau De Rhubarb Ecarlate first to evaluate the rhubarb note.

Aventus is respected within the r/fragrance community as a high-performing, universally compliment-worthy fragrance with revolutionary fruity chypre characteristics. However, opinions are divided on whether its premium price and personal wearability justify the hype, with many experiencing rapid nose blindness despite strong projection, and batch inconsistency creating variable experiences across users.
