Which Should You Buy?
This aquatic beast is a bit of a divisive one. Many find it a superb freshie with beastly performance, while others detect a synthetic harshness that puts them off. Definitely don't blind buy; sample first to see if you get Federer at Wimbledon or a cheap synthetic mess.
Compiled from the house's own product notes: a juicy lychee-rhubarb opening gives way to a rose-peony-musk heart, before a warm cashmeran-incense-cedar base - a fruity-floral composition with genuine oriental depth in the drydown.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
Its potent projection and long-lasting nature, coupled with its fresh aquatic and citrus profile, make it excellent for casual wear and dates, but potentially overwhelming for a formal office setting. While some find it suitable for the office due to its fresh scent, its strength means it's best in open spaces or where discretion isn't paramount.
Seasons
The bright lychee-rhubarb opening suits spring best, while the cashmeran-incense base still carries into cooler autumn days without feeling out of place.
Occasions
A moderate-intensity fruity-floral with a soft base makes this best suited to casual daytime wear and the office, rather than formal evenings.
