    What do reviewers say about Marc Jacobs Cotton Splash 2016 and Masaki Shiro?

    Fresh without the antiseptic edge. This is the clean that smells like a decision, not a cleaning product. The cotton doesn't shout, it whispers. And somehow that restraint is exactly why it works.Marc Jacobs Cotton Splash 2016
    Shiro is quiet in the best possible way. It performs softly, which means reapplication is part of the ritual. The iris and white musk combination works especially well if you prefer subtlety over.Masaki Shiro
