    What do reviewers say about Virgin Island Water 2007 and Bossa?

    White rum and sugarcane as a base note, Creed could have buried it. Didn't. This is the fragrance for someone who wants tropical without smelling like they tried.Virgin Island Water 2007
    For those who want Brazil without the cliché. Bossa stays light and beachy, never heavy, never loud. If you need something that shouts from across the room, this is not it.Bossa
