    What do reviewers say about Vice Versa and Versus Time for Action?

    The tomato note either intrigues you or makes you pull back. That's the point. Sweet enough to flirt, tart enough to keep things interesting, Vice Versa doesn't play it safe, and neither should you.Vice Versa
    The synthetic citrus is either the hook or the dealbreaker. Oakmoss gives it a slightly sour, dirty edge that stops it from being another pretty shower gel. That's what keeps it interesting.Versus Time for Action
