Hanami לעומת Not A Perfume

Hanami is a well-liked fragrance with a dedicated fanbase who appreciate its fresh, creamy character and everyday wearability, particularly in cooler seasons. However, the community is disappointed by its discontinuation and concerned about potential quality issues with discounted stock, while also noting that the reformulated version differs significantly from the original aquatic formulation that many preferred.

Not A Perfume is extremely divisive, with reactions ranging from love to hatred depending heavily on individual skin chemistry and potential genetic anosmia to its key molecules. The fragrance works beautifully for some wearers who find it comforting and receive compliments, but others experience it as unpleasantly sharp or can't smell it at all, making it one of the most unpredictable fragrances in the community.
