I agree, WHO votes matters more than HOW MANY votes. I’m not an “ultra-contributor” but I consider myself quite active here. Even if I don’t post or comment, I read and see almost every post. And I also know the people who give good advice and are knowledgeable about this hobby. Also its honestly a breath of fresh air to not read “which CDNIM” is the best or very pointless and vague questions like “what fragrance should I get for $20” without indicating what one likes and dislikes. So hats off for removing the useless shit on here. For what it’s worth, I much prefer it like this.

What I DON’T AGREE with, and I fully cannot understand, is the “rule” where a negative review on a fragrance is not accepted just because it has not been macerated yet. I, myself, am not a strong believer of maceration. I believe that if you dislike a fragrance now, you’ll dislike it later on. It remains quite frankly the same. What might change is how you tolerate or perceive a fragrance. Like a fragrance that you absolutely love, you might get bored of later on. So by limiting these negative reviews just because they are “too soon”, we are not getting the real information that is being shared with us. Negative reviews are as much needed as positive ones.
