Which Should You Buy?
Calyx is pure 80s fruity-green exuberance in a bottle, a love-it-or-hate-it scent that screams 'tropical garden after a rainstorm'. It's bold, unapologetic, and divisive, but those who love it, really love it. If you're after something unique and impactful, beware of over-spraying.
This one's a divisive fresh floral that smells nothing like its name. Some found it a 'monster' for longevity, others found it 'fleeting.' Overall, it's pretty generic and not for those who want complexity beyond a fresh, shampoo-like scent.
