Squid is a polarizing niche fragrance that successfully delivers on its oceanic, briny concept, but doesn't work well on all skin types—some find it transforms into unpleasant suntan lotion. Community consensus is mixed, with strong musk presence being a point of contention for those seeking alternatives without it.
