Phtaloblue is a divisive Tauer fragrance with a prominent melon/watermelon character that some find delightful and others don't detect at all. Those who enjoy it praise its performance in warm weather and beach settings, though it has a sharp opening that mellows after several minutes. It appears to be a niche release with devoted fans but limited broader community consensus.

Tom Ford Oud Wood is genuinely well-regarded by the community as a beautiful, unique woody fragrance that deserves its reputation despite hype concerns. However, poor skin longevity (especially post-reformulation) is a consistent frustration for the price point, leading many to recommend cheaper alternatives like Nishane Kredo or Thameen Carved Oud for better performance.
