I also bought, blind, Bond No. 9 Fire Island. I had been talking about beach perfumes with someone at work. As it was on sale, I thought, why not? After a perfunctory sniff, it is VERY ozonic. I was expecting it to be more like suntan oil.
In Japan, there is a men's cosmetic line they sell in convenience stores called Gatsby. It's put out by Mandom. They sell cheap colognes in the line for, like, $10. Someone last year gave me a bottle of the Gatsby Shower Fresh Ocean Citrus. While Fire Island isn't really citrus-y, it shared the Gatsby's ozone blast. Doubt I will wear this much. My bottle of Fire Island is as below, missing the sunburst around the subway token. What does this mean?
