Splendor is acknowledged as a respectable 90s fragrance choice and appears in community favorites lists, but generates minimal detailed discussion or passionate community engagement. It remains a nostalgic option for those seeking period-appropriate classics, though it appears less celebrated than contemporary alternatives.

Mugler Alien is a divisive fragrance with a passionate but divided fanbase. While dedicated fans praise its distinctive jasmine character and strong performance, a significant portion of the community finds it overhyped, with the Goddess flanker particularly criticized for having an unpleasant sunscreen-like quality. The fragrance's polarizing nature makes it a risky blind buy despite its iconic status.
