Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Isola Blu
Divisive, expensive, and baffling. Isola Blu is either a luxurious citrus masterpiece, an elevated take on beloved classics, or an overpriced, short-lived cleaning product. Most agree it's great, but many find it derivative and not worth the hefty price tag.
Acquired
Our Verdict - VALOR BLUE
This one's a crowd-pleaser for sure. Clean, fresh, and undeniably masculine, VALOR BLUE is a solid daily driver that punches above its weight. Not groundbreaking, but reliably good.
