Untamable vs A City On Fire

Untamable is widely considered a failed experiment by Imaginary Authors that delivers on its 1920s bold concept but at the cost of wearability. The fragrance is described as repulsive and headache-inducing by most who tried it, with comparisons to unpleasant bodily odors and public restrooms, making it unwearable despite its intriguing conceptual ambition.

City on Fire by Imaginary Authors receives mixed-to-negative feedback from the r/fragrance community. While it succeeds in delivering a strong smoky scent with good performance, most reviewers find the particular character of the smoke unpleasant—described as artificial, electric, or concrete-like rather than warm or church-like. The fragrance is largely overshadowed by more universally praised alternatives in the smoky/incense category.
