Which Should You Buy?
This polarizing aquatic-fruity concoction has a devoted following, but don't blind buy. Many find it delightful and distinctive, while others are repelled by its sharp, artificial edge, comparing it to cleaning products or even 'pissy' seaweed. The bottle is gorgeous though. Fair warning: it's a scrubber for some.
This one's a proper mash-up, isn't it? Love or hate it, Osmanto Shock certainly leaves an impression. Some find it a comforting, grown-up fruity floral, while others are less charmed. Definitely not for the faint of heart, or nose.
