Salome is a divisive, unapologetically bold fragrance that appeals strongly to enthusiasts of animalic and skank fragrances. The community consensus is positive among those who appreciate its provocative character, though it's clearly not for conventional tastes. Multiple reviewers praise its complex floral-animalic balance and agree it demands confidence to wear.

The r/fragrance community has polarized opinions on Black Orchid, with many praising its unique dark, artistic character and exceptional longevity, while others find the heavy patchouli and earthy base off-putting. Most wearers report getting compliments when wearing it in the right context, though it requires careful application due to its extreme strength and works best as an occasional evening fragrance rather than daily wear.
