Indochine (2019) לעומת Pardon

Indochine appears to be a divisive Xerjoff fragrance with a compelling opening and drydown, but an awkward middle stage that some find off-putting. While Xerjoff as a house receives strong praise from dedicated fans, specific opinions on Indochine are limited, suggesting it may appeal primarily to adventurous fragrance collectors rather than mainstream audiences.

Nasomatto Pardon is generally well-regarded by the r/fragrance community as a unique, sophisticated fragrance with an impressive patchouli note and excellent longevity. While most praise its creamy, classy drydown and mysterious character, some find the boozy opening polarizing and the chocolate note less prominent than advertised. It's considered more niche and complex than mainstream alternatives like Baccarat Rouge 540.
