Cape Heartache vs Angels' Share

The r/fragrance community views perfume collecting as a legitimate hobby and form of self-care that enriches life through sensory appreciation and emotional connection. Members appreciate the accessibility through samples and decants, the artistic quality of fragrances, and how the hobby supports personal growth and self-esteem without requiring excessive spending.

Angels' Share is a well-composed niche fragrance with an impressive scent profile of apple pie, cognac, and spice that genuinely resonates with many in the community. However, it's severely hampered by unpredictable performance—some experience strong projection while others find it barely noticeable—and longevity issues that appear batch-dependent. Despite these concerns, it maintains solid community appreciation and recognition.
