Sa Majeste la Rose is a polarizing fragrance within the community, with multiple users reporting an unwanted urinous or dried-urine smell that overshadows its otherwise pleasant floral qualities. The off-note appears linked to indolic jasmine or phenethyl alcohol compounds common in white florals, making it unwearable for those sensitive to these aromatic compounds, though others in the community may not detect this issue at all.

Dior Dune is a polarizing but highly respected fragrance that successfully captures the essence of hot sand and deserts with its unique, dry composition. While vintage versions from the 1990s are praised for their complexity and longevity, the modern formulation is considered significantly inferior, and the fragrance's intense, challenging nature means it's not suited for everyone despite its undeniable quality and artistry.
