Which Should You Buy?
If you're after a budget-friendly dupe for a classic, this might just hit the mark, though opinions are sharply divided. Some smell a fresh, citrusy marine dream, others are getting an odd savoury note that sends them running for the hills. Proceed with caution and certainly try before you buy.
