Pleats Please l'Eau is viewed as a solid, wearable fragrance that serves its purpose well for cooler seasons with warm honey notes. While the community recognizes it as a reasonable choice, some find the boozy elements occasionally off-putting and don't consider it distinctive enough to reach for regularly over newer niche discoveries.

Hypnotic Poison is a divisive fragrance with devoted fans and skeptics. While older formulations were praised for depth and longevity, recent batches are noticeably weaker and reformulated. The scent's gourmand profile (almond, vanilla) appeals to some but the initial notes (often described as root beer, playdough, or rubber) are off-putting to others, making it highly dependent on personal skin chemistry and preference.
