Which Should You Buy?
This is a clean, bright, and airy citrus-floral that's perfect for summer. It's not groundbreaking but delivers a beautiful, inoffensive scent, though many find its longevity a let-down.
A brilliant, juicy summer zinger that nails the 'salty lemon' brief without smelling like a cleaning product - as long as you can get past the initial citrus flurry. Some reckon the performance isn't up to scratch, but most find it surprisingly good for a freshie.
