Rose Supercritique vs Black Orchid

Rose Supercritique receives high praise from the r/fragrance community, with the original reviewer recommending it as one of their top fragrances and multiple users expressing strong interest in trying it. While detailed notes are limited in this thread, the fragrance is positioned as an excellent offering from Les Eaux Primordiales and appeals to discerning rose fragrance lovers.

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.
