Which Should You Buy?
This one's a divisive hit-or-miss, depending on whether you're after a classic green freshness or find it a bit too 'old-school aftershave'. Expect mass appeal for some, head-scratching for others.
Italian Wave mirrors Prada Luna Rossa Ocean's spicy aromatic-fougere with its 'blue' lavender-iris signature. The pink-pepper opening and powdery vetiver-musk drydown read close, but as a budget dupe it lands flatter and lighter than the polished Prada.
