Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ocean Noir
Ocean Noir is a divisive aquatic that smells absolutely sensational to many, often drawing compliments, but its shockingly poor performance for some means it's a hard pass for others. The consensus is a superb scent, but the longevity is a lottery.

Our Verdict - CR7 Play It Cool
If you're after a budget-friendly, citrus-aquatic freshie that pulls compliments, CR7 Play It Cool delivers - just be ready for a short shelf-life. Longevity is the main gripe, but it's a solid casual reach for the price.

Season and Occasion Fit

Ocean Noir

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual
Also Works:
Sport

Its fresh, clean, and mass-appealing aquatic profile makes it highly versatile for casual and office wear. However, varying reports on projection and longevity mean it might not hold up for formal events or intense sport unless oversprayed or reapplied.

CR7 Play It Cool

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

This scent is perfect for casual and sport settings due to its fresh, clean, and energising profile. Its moderate projection and limited longevity make it suitable for office wear without being overpowering, but not ideal for formal events or longer dates where more presence is desired.
