Straight to Heaven receives praise for its attractive scent profile featuring rum and cedarwood notes, but the community consensus is divided on its performance. Most agree that longevity is a significant weakness, with the fragrance becoming a skin scent within 6 hours, though some users report acceptable performance. The discontinued Extreme version offered minimal improvement and is no longer available.

Aventus is respected within the r/fragrance community as a high-performing, universally compliment-worthy fragrance with revolutionary fruity chypre characteristics. However, opinions are divided on whether its premium price and personal wearability justify the hype, with many experiencing rapid nose blindness despite strong projection, and batch inconsistency creating variable experiences across users.
