Fendi vs Obsession

The Fendi fragrance line receives mixed reception from the r/fragrance community. While La Baguette shows promise with comparisons to beloved discontinued fragrances like Dior Homme, the overall collection struggles with limited availability, light performance, and frustration over the brand's history of discontinuing beloved scents. Many users express nostalgia for older Fendi fragrances rather than enthusiasm for current offerings.

The r/fragrance community holds Obsession in generally favorable regard, particularly for its distinctive cinnamon and spicy character that differentiates it from mainstream fragrances. However, there is significant disappointment with the modern reformulation, with many preferring vintage bottles despite their rarity and high cost. The consensus is that if you enjoy the scent, wearing it remains relevant regardless of trends, provided application is moderate.
