The review

On paper, Caribbean Waves (Rum Heavy) is a reasonable bet if you want Virgin Island Water for less.

Scentual Obsessions 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.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Evidence6.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Scentual Obsessions publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

The original opens on white bergamot, sicilian lime and ginger, turns to coconut, hibiscus and ylang-ylang, and settles into white rum, sugar cane and musk. That is the brief Caribbean Waves (Rum Heavy) is working from.

Top

  • white bergamot
  • sicilian lime
  • ginger

Heart

  • coconut
  • hibiscus
  • ylang-ylang

Base

  • white rum
  • sugar cane
  • musk
Sun-soaked coconut, lime and white rum that bottles a Caribbean beach holiday.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
