Taipei לעומת Angels' Share

One Day Taipei is praised for its authentic steaming rice opening and beautiful sandalwood-forward drydown that wins over skeptics. However, the fragrance is notoriously difficult to source in the USA, and the distinctive rice note inevitably fades as it dries down due to the chemical nature of rice-scent compounds.

Angels' Share is a well-composed niche fragrance with an impressive scent profile of apple pie, cognac, and spice that genuinely resonates with many in the community. However, it's severely hampered by unpredictable performance—some experience strong projection while others find it barely noticeable—and longevity issues that appear batch-dependent. Despite these concerns, it maintains solid community appreciation and recognition.
