Which Should You Buy?
Alto Astral is a proper divisive olfactive rollercoaster. For some, it's a vibrant, clean coconut dream - perfect for summer and pulling compliments. Others? They're getting cheese crackers, sour BO, or a blast of chlorine. You absolutely must try this on skin before buying, because this one's a gamble.
