Orgasmo vs Hypnotic Poison

The r/fragrance community views Hilde Soliani positively as an inventive perfumer creating conceptual gourmand fragrances with quality and character. Orgasmo is highlighted as a standout that balances almonds, pastry, and subtle sea salt into a luxurious scent, though some find her fragrances too sweet and linear for their preferences.

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.
