Flower in the Air vs Hypnotic Poison

Kenzo Flower in the Air receives a lukewarm reception from the community. While appreciated as a pretty, clean fragrance with a powdery quality, it is frequently criticized as a poor substitute for the discontinued Kenzo Flower Tag and criticized for its short longevity. Community members note it works best in situations where you don't want the scent to project strongly.

Hypnotic Poison is a divisive fragrance with devoted fans and skeptics. While older formulations were praised for depth and longevity, recent batches are noticeably weaker and reformulated. The scent's gourmand profile (almond, vanilla) appeals to some but the initial notes (often described as root beer, playdough, or rubber) are off-putting to others, making it highly dependent on personal skin chemistry and preference.
