Which Should You Buy?
Radio Bombay is a beautifully complex and polarising scent. Folks either rave about its electric, creamy sandalwood and coconut, or they're put off by a metallic note or fleeting performance. It's unique, but definitely one to try on your skin before committing.
Don't let the name fool you into expecting actual filth here - 'I am Trash' is a divisive but largely pleasant fruity-woody scent. Some find it a quirky, wearable art piece, while others dismiss it as underwhelming or even a bit grim. Performance is the real tragedy here.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Given its moderate projection and a distinct 'skin scent' quality after the initial burst, Radio Bombay is versatile for casual wear and intimate dates. It won't overwhelm an office, but might lack the gravitas for formal events. The woody, musky character combined with its intimate sillage makes it quite adaptable.
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its fresh, clean, and subtle nature with poor longevity makes it perfect for office or casual wear where it won't overpower. It's too airy for formal settings and lacks the depth typically desired for a date scent, though its light and fruity character could suit some casual dates.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Woody, Musky accords and Cedar, Sandalwood notes
