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.

Unique gourmand scent that appeals to those who enjoy sweet fragrances
Strong projection and presence when it works well on skin chemistry
EDP version smoother and sexier than EDT formulation

Негативний

Recent reformulations significantly weaker and less deep than older bottles
Polarizing initial scent profile: rubber, playdough, or root beer notes off-putting to many
Can smell cloying or plasticky up close, better appreciated from a distance
Highly dependent on individual skin chemistry with inconsistent performance
