The community shows mixed interest in Ryder, with significant concerns about potential formula reformulation affecting quality and consistency. While the fragrance appears worth sampling, reports of reduced sweetness and shifted composition in newer bottles have created hesitation among those considering a full purchase.

Plum Japonais is a highly praised and sought-after Tom Ford fragrance with a distinctive sweet, spicy, oudy profile that generates passionate devotion among fans. However, its discontinuation has made it rare and expensive, and it remains a polarizing scent that doesn't appeal to everyone - blind buying is discouraged unless purchased at reasonable prices or as a collector's investment. The fragrance is best suited for winter wear and those who appreciate unconventional, woody oriental fragrances.
