“Într-un film menit să ilustreze platitudinea că orbul vede mai profund decît semenii săi văzători, Brest complică subiectul cu drama liceanului sărac disputat între autoritatea care-l constrînge să devină ‘turnător’, altfel i-ar compromite viitorul, şi datoria de a rămîne ‘solidar’ cu un grup insolent de bogătaşi care au comis o necuviinţă.” (Dicţionar universal de filme, 2002)

Roger Ebert: „Pacino and O’Donnell engage in the emotional equivalent of the showdown between Jack Nicholson and Tom Cruise in „A Few Good Men.” It’s quite a scene – the real conclusion of the movie, although Charlie’s story still has to find its own conclusion, when the two men go back to the prep school. By the end of „Scent of a Woman,” we have arrived at the usual conclusion of the coming-of-age movie, and the usual conclusion of the prep school movie. But rarely have we been taken there with so much intelligence and skill.”
