Which Should You Buy?
A divisive crowd-pleaser that splits opinion between being a beautiful, fresh unisex scent and a generic, overpriced clone. You'll likely either love it for its uplifting, coastal vibe or dismiss it as a 'meh' aquatic.
A budget read of Bond No.9's Hamptons - that bright citrus-floral with a soft, romantic jasmine-magnolia heart and a creamy sandalwood-amber base. Resort Islands keeps the fresh, sunny silhouette but pushes the citrus brighter and lets the creamy woody base thin out faster than the polished original. An easy, elegant warm-weather fresh for the money.
