Reception

David from auspOp scored the album 4 out of 5 and called the album "a collection of powerful, confident and sassy songs." David named "Gimme Your Love" and "Maybe You Can Love Me Anyway" as his favourite songs on the album because "Karise sings about her desires, her dreams and these gorgeous tunes really bring them to life".^[8]

Jeff Jenkins from Stack Magazine said "With her sassy attitude and potent vocal, Eden comes across as a thrilling mix of Janis Joplin and Renée Geyer."^[9]
