Rory Gibb of The Quietus commented that "Ardour is a lush, sumptuous record, openly heartfelt and immediately welcoming, though deceptively complex beneath its gauzy surface." [9] Nate Patrin of Pitchfork gave the album an 8.0 out of 10, writing, "It's wispy and gentle and a bit cheerful on the surface, but giving it a deep listen will bring forth some of the more complex and abrasive elements to the forefront." [7]
Kristina Benson of LA Weekly called it "one of the most delicate and lovely albums of the year". [13] Jeff Weiss of Los Angeles Times wrote, "it's one of the most anticipated records within the Los Angeles beat community". [14]
