Terrible knock-off! Smells more like candy than Florida Water!
**Buyer Beware** Not Authentic! Poor, cheap knockoffs! For those who are just using Florida Water for the 1st time, you're really missing out on some extremely wonderful benefits in buying these fake products. 1st, but really, least importantly, the bottles are not even completely full. The labels are inaccurate-the printing is awful, and they're poorly placed and adhered. (I had more than one authentic bottle to compare this garbage to, btw.) The liquid inside smells like strong rubbing alcohol mixed with lemon candy (Skittles, maybe?). I've been using authentic Florida Water for YEARS and know the smell anywhere (both the US and Peru version)...you should be able to distinguish each nuance...a delicate mix of cinnamon, clove, and light citrus scent that when used on your skin, in your bath, with a cleansing, or as part of your various rituals, should linger for a minimum of 24 hours....and the longer it is left on your skin (especially on your arms), the composition of the fragrance changes beautifully the entire time. The scents are undeniable and intoxicating. Not to mention the spiritual benefits! I'd be lost! However, these cheap 3 packs are an insult to the brand. I am ashamed that I was so determined to save a few bucks and thought these sellers would be honest about a product that is so sacred! I am so sorry that rather than paying for shipping and supporting a local, small shop that until now I had only used, I paid for cheap rubbing alcohol. I will never again buy this here. This product should be removed from Amazon until it us authenticated. This is just shameful.
