Which Should You Buy?
Maya Njie's Tropica is a seriously divisive scent. Some find it a delicious tropical escape, a sophisticated piña colada, while others are met with a baffling, unpleasant sourness verging on 'rotten banana' or 'vomit'. This is definitely one to test before buying.
A juicy fruity burst that sadly disappears quicker than a summer fling. It's a fun, albeit fleeting, blast of sunshine for those who love a sweet, tropical hit.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
With its noticeable projection and tropical fruitiness, Tropica is best suited for casual and date wear rather than formal settings or the office. Its playful character is perfect for holiday and warm weather relaxed occasions, however some find its projection intimate making it more versatile.
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its bright, fruity character makes it perfect for casual daytime wear, but its extremely poor longevity means it won't last through a full workday or a long evening event. The sweet, tropical notes lend themselves well to relaxed settings.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Fruity, Sweet, Citrus accords and Sandalwood, Pineapple notes
