Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Dream Sea
Dream Sea is a divisive powerhouse: a ridiculously strong vanilla marine that some find stunning and unique, while others dismiss it as a cheap, cloying synthetic mess. One thing everyone agrees on is its nuclear performance.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Ming Shu Fleur de l'Aube
A fresh floral with an aquatic heart, Ming Shu Fleur de l'Aube is a love-it-or-hate-it scent. Some adore its soft, clean vibe, while others find it a bit too sharp or just plain dull. It's divisive, so don't blind buy.
