Which Should You Buy?
This aquatic floral is a divisive one. Fans eulogise its fresh, airy charm, perfect for hot days. Detractors are less kind, complaining it smells like a chemical cleaner or generic citrus. A classic example of reformulation angst.
A fresh, light, and mass-appealing scent perfect for summer. It’s got an easy-going charm that works for many, though don't expect anything groundbreaking. If you like clean, crisp fruit and florals, this is a solid choice.
