The review
Strong contender. That is where Virgin Island Water lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Virgin Island Water.
Palermo Perfumes sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Virgin Island Water's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $23 it costs 95% less than Virgin Island Water.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
