Pros & Cons

✅ It’s a bright, fruity-floral fragrance that certainly grows on you... I can certainly see why this has a popular following and has stood the test of time.
✅ This is the ultimate spring scent imo. Every Time I've worn it I've gotten a female compliment
✅ There's nothing quite like this in a crowded market of aquatics... Thirty years on the market and still doing things most newcomers can't.
✅ A beautiful marine saline fresh citrusy beauty. Has good performance too.
✅ Easy dumb reach for when you want to give a fresh & clean impression... For the price, this is an easy winner.

❌ beautiful fragrance unfortunately very weak performance
❌ Smells like cheap soap. Terrible.
❌ If you want to smell like the floor of a cleaned tiles in a hospital bathroom this is perfect for you.
❌ I’ve gone back and forth with this one... by the end of the day it becomes so off putting that I can’t wait to wash it off.
❌ It's definitely unique... but I find it's dated spicy & not very youthful.
❌ I’ve gone back and forth with this one. Love it for the first hour or so, but then it turns on me.
