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 - In Flames
This Olympea-esque cheapie divides opinion: some find it a gorgeous, creamy, hazelnut-laced summer delight, while others are put off by a synthetic opening. If you can get past that, it's a beachy bargain.
