Higher vs Aventus

The r/fragrance community views Dior Higher (and related Dior fragrances) as a solid, versatile fragrance suitable for most people, but its massive popularity has created perception issues unrelated to the scent's actual quality. The consensus is that any negative stigma stems from cultural associations and overuse rather than the fragrance itself, though some find it too common and generic.

Aventus is respected within the r/fragrance community as a high-performing, universally compliment-worthy fragrance with revolutionary fruity chypre characteristics. However, opinions are divided on whether its premium price and personal wearability justify the hype, with many experiencing rapid nose blindness despite strong projection, and batch inconsistency creating variable experiences across users.
