Violet Blossom is a decent entry-level fragrance with a pleasant violet note suitable for work and everyday wear. While it's appreciated for its affordability and wearability, community members note it lacks the depth and staying power of higher-end alternatives, making it best for those seeking a simple, inoffensive daily scent rather than a signature fragrance.

Hypnotic Poison is a divisive fragrance with devoted fans and skeptics. While older formulations were praised for depth and longevity, recent batches are noticeably weaker and reformulated. The scent's gourmand profile (almond, vanilla) appeals to some but the initial notes (often described as root beer, playdough, or rubber) are off-putting to others, making it highly dependent on personal skin chemistry and preference.
