MEM vs Anubis

MEM by Bogue receives a mixed reception in the community. While some appreciate its creamy, woody character and skin-scent intimacy, multiple users report anosmia and weak performance that limits its wearability. The fragrance appeals primarily to niche enthusiasts but struggles to compete with similar offerings that have better projection.

Papillon Artisan Perfumes is respected within the r/fragrance community as a quality house producing distinctive artisanal fragrances with good juice quality. The brand is grouped alongside other well-regarded indie and niche perfumers, appreciated by collectors and those seeking unique, natural scent profiles, though it remains a niche offering not for everyone.
