Which Should You Buy?
A universally agreeable, if forgettable, aquatic freshie. Don't expect fireworks, but it's a solid, inoffensive choice for everyday wear. The main issue is its fleeting performance.
Don't let the name fool you - this isn't a blast of icy winds. Reykjavik is a warm, aromatic journey, a cosy sauna experience rather than a glacial hike. It's divisive only if you expect an Icelandic winter; otherwise, it's a wonderfully calming scent.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
Its fresh, light aquatic character and poor projection make it ideal for office wear and casual daytime situations, where subtlety is key. It's too subdued and generic for dates or formal events, though some find it suitable for sport due to its refreshing nature.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and spring.
Occasions
