Scandal Absolu לעומת Hypnotic Poison

The r/fragrance community views Scandal Absolu as a pleasant, wearable fragrance that performs adequately for daily use and receives compliments. However, users express disappointment about multiple reformulations over the years, noting the current version lacks the richness and longevity of earlier batches, making it difficult to justify its premium price point.

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.
