Orris vs Black Orchid

The r/fragrance community has mixed opinions on Commodity's Orris, with users praising the house as underrated and appreciating their fragrances for seasonal rotation and niche collections. However, discussions in the thread focus more broadly on cheap blind-buy fragrances, with the community divided between those who embrace the gamble and those advocating for sampling first to avoid wasted money.

The r/fragrance community has polarized opinions on Black Orchid, with many praising its unique dark, artistic character and exceptional longevity, while others find the heavy patchouli and earthy base off-putting. Most wearers report getting compliments when wearing it in the right context, though it requires careful application due to its extreme strength and works best as an occasional evening fragrance rather than daily wear.
