Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Carioca Heart
This tropical fruit bomb is pure chaotic energy, a proper love-it-or-hate-it scent. If you want to smell like an expensive beach holiday, this is your jam. Just be prepared for the divisive ambroxan hit.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Optimystic Le Beau
This one's a cheerful, summery charmer, but be warned: it might just convert you to the cult of coconut. Seriously good stuff for those who love their scents sweet, tropical, and effortlessly cool.
