Yes I Am vs Crystal Noir

Yes I Am is well-received by the r/fragrance community as an affordable, quality gourmand fragrance with a creamy caramel and fruity-floral profile. While praised for being sensuous and complex without being overly sweet, its main limitation is modest longevity and projection. Most users recommend it as a solid value purchase, particularly for evening wear.

Crystal Noir is a divisive fragrance with strong projection and longevity that receives genuine compliments from many wearers. However, the prominent coconut note is a significant turn-off for those who find it overpowering or sunscreen-like, and the EDP and EDT formulations differ noticeably, making recommendations context-dependent. It works best as a seasonal evening fragrance for those who enjoy creamy, spiced coconut scents.
