Nasomatto Pardon es generalmente bien valorado por la comunidad de r/fragrance como una fragancia única y sofisticada con una nota de pachulí impresionante y una excelente longevidad. Aunque la mayoría elogia su secado cremoso y elegante y su carácter misterioso, algunos encuentran la salida alcohólica polarizante y la nota de chocolate menos prominente de lo anunciado. Se considera más nicho y complejo que alternativas convencionales como Baccarat Rouge 540.
