What do reviewers say about Dark Ride and Jaws?
The mildew and chlorine combo is the whole point, that moment on a dark ride when you realize you're actually wet, actually cold, actually somewhere else entirely. That's the appeal.Dark Ride
Built for the person who wants the ocean without the sunscreen. Clean enough for a Tuesday, strange enough that strangers ask what it is. The brine and sugar kelp make it feel less like a fragrance.Jaws
