    Real talk

    This is a fragrance that knows exactly what it wants to be. Tropical fruit up top, creamy florals in the middle, warm woods at the base. It simply delivers on its promise.Counterplay
    Wavechild does not try to be profound. It opens bright, gets fruity and fun in the middle, and ends warm. Jerome di Marino keeps the structure clean, which makes the whole thing wear effortlessly.Wavechild
