Valentino Donna receives mixed reviews from the r/fragrance community. While some appreciate its pleasant heavenly scent and versatility for layering, the fragrance is widely criticized for its poor longevity, lasting only 2-3 hours. The scent is generally considered feminine-leaning, though some members successfully wear it regardless of gender, with the overall consensus being that it's a decent casual fragrance hampered by performance issues.

The community has mixed feelings about Si Intense, with significant division centered on reformulation issues. While those who own original versions love the blackcurrant and fresh qualities, many are disappointed by recent 2021-2023 reformulations that have weakened performance and changed the scent profile. The newer versions are frequently criticized as generic and underwhelming compared to the beloved original black bottle.
