Joy by Dior vs Pure Poison

The r/fragrance community has mixed feelings about Joy by Dior, with some appreciating its longevity and sweet cola-ginger opening, but many finding it disappointing and lacking sophistication. Multiple users agree it feels like a celebrity fragrance without memorable staying power in the dry down.

Pure Poison divides the r/fragrance community with passionate fans calling it angelic, sensual, and versatile, while detractors find it chemical or overly powdery. The consensus is that it's a clean white floral with a distinctive velvety character that's neither a fresh daytime scent nor a heavy nightclub fragrance, making sampling essential before committing to a full bottle.
