Hmmm...I'd actually like to try BOTH of these just to see if they remind me of Hawaii. Since I'm from there...I'm very curious to see if he was able to capture the "essence" of my old home. Many people have tried....so far, I haven't found one that has succeeded. I will be receiving Colonia Dulce by Maoli, so it would be nice to have these tested side by side to see which one seems more "authentic". Most tropical fragrances I've tried seem as if they're trying too hard to be tropical. The beauty of Hawaii is that it's actually quite simple...the food...the flavors...the smell...yet somehow, it manages to be exotic and beautiful just by sitting in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.
