The r/fragrance community strongly appreciates Xerjoff Starlight as a refined gourmand fragrance that stands out through its innovative cardamom-forward profile and lack of vanilla. Users praise its longevity and ability to evoke memories, though its high price point and occasional authenticity concerns are notable drawbacks. Overall, it's considered exceptional perfumery that justifies its premium positioning for devoted fans.

Carlisle is a divisive fragrance within the community - those who enjoy it praise its artistic complexity, excellent longevity, and bridge between European and Middle Eastern perfumery styles. However, others find its heavy, all-at-once opening overwhelming or irritating, and it doesn't deliver the experience some expected based on comparisons to Layton. The fragrance rewards patience as it evolves throughout the day.
