Vanilla Oud is well-regarded by the community as a solid, approachable vanilla fragrance with an interesting smokey-woody angle. While it successfully converts people to the vanilla category and offers good value, some note it skews feminine in development and has strong competition at similar price points.

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.
