Santal 33 is a highly polarizing fragrance with passionate fans and equally strong detractors. While those who love it praise its woody, creamy sandalwood character, the community consensus warns against wearing it to professional settings due to its extreme projection and divisive scent profile that many perceive as pickle-like or overly synthetic. It remains a popular but controversial choice best reserved for personal enjoyment outside the workplace.

Angels' Share is a well-composed niche fragrance with an impressive scent profile of apple pie, cognac, and spice that genuinely resonates with many in the community. However, it's severely hampered by unpredictable performance—some experience strong projection while others find it barely noticeable—and longevity issues that appear batch-dependent. Despite these concerns, it maintains solid community appreciation and recognition.
