I, on the other hand, think they're lovely. I can only wear most of them at particular times though: ie when the weather is right and my mood matches. But I love that they feel like part of a story, not just a nice smell.
Ealing green smells to me like a romanticised version of walking through a field after a summer rain storm, all fresh and green and the relief after previous humidity. I wore it a lot last year!
Whereas Dark Heart is (to me) a slightly seedy dark bar in somewhere like Soho when you have that amazing feeling of being free to do anything a few months after a break up (ie your over the heartbreak and full of that feeling of possibility for the future that feels exciting)
I also love Tokyo Spring Blossom and Doe in the Snow for the spring months when I'm full of optimism for a heady hot summer. (Even though it's supposed to smell cold, For doesn't to me, it's that early spring when there's still a nip in the air in the evening but warm through the day and the peach is a promise of hot weather to come).
I can't wear any of their spicy vanilla-ry scents though. Not my thing. And none that I have tried are really "light" scents
Perhaps it's about how you like to wear perfume? And whether it needs to simply be a nice smell? The first time I tried my first sample set, I didn't quite "get it". But then i made myself try again, slower this time, one scent every few days. Then I understood and appreciated the layers: it's almost like you have to develop a relationship with them.
