Bradley Torreano from AllMusic gave a negative assessment of the album, stating that it is filled with featureless and faceless tracks, which sometimes are not even saved by Mina's beautiful voice. Summing up, he stated that he does not recommend this album to anyone, because it does not compare with the singer's previous achievements.^[2]
