Fendi לעומת Black Orchid

The Fendi fragrance line receives mixed reception from the r/fragrance community. While La Baguette shows promise with comparisons to beloved discontinued fragrances like Dior Homme, the overall collection struggles with limited availability, light performance, and frustration over the brand's history of discontinuing beloved scents. Many users express nostalgia for older Fendi fragrances rather than enthusiasm for current offerings.

The r/fragrance community has polarized opinions on Black Orchid, with many praising its unique dark, artistic character and exceptional longevity, while others find the heavy patchouli and earthy base off-putting. Most wearers report getting compliments when wearing it in the right context, though it requires careful application due to its extreme strength and works best as an occasional evening fragrance rather than daily wear.
