   DS&Durga knows how to compose, and Radio Bombay (2016) is proof. The first minutes are all about Woody Notes with a hint of Cedar — it grabs attention without being pushy. The heart is the best part for me: Sandalwood and Iris feel carefully balanced. I get about four to six hours before it turns into a skin scent. I can see this getting a lot of wear in my collection.

   Picked up a sample of Radio Bombay after reading the community buzz (2016). The base rests on Sandalwood and Coconut — warm, grounded and easy to live with. That first spray gives a lovely Woody Notes/Cedar impression that dries down smoothly. It performs better in warmer weather — in the heat it opens up nicely. I wanted to like it more than I did.

   I have owned Radio Bombay for a while now and my opinion has only gotten stronger. The opening is built around Woody Notes and Cedar — bright and immediately recognizable. The base rests on Sandalwood and Coconut — warm, grounded and easy to live with. The drydown lingers pleasantly, and I do not need to reapply at lunch. I reach for it often and always enjoy the wear.

   Everyone keeps talking about Radio Bombay, so I finally gave it a proper test. The drydown leans on Sandalwood plus Coconut and that is exactly where it feels most comfortable. The first minutes are all about Woody Notes with a hint of Cedar — it grabs attention without being pushy. Projection stays close for the first hour, then becomes a soft, pleasant aura. This has earned a permanent spot in my rotation.

   I picked up Radio Bombay (2016) mostly on a whim, and it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. The base rests on Sandalwood and Coconut — warm, grounded and easy to live with. Give it a little time and Sandalwood with Iris comes forward — smooth and well done. On my skin the performance is reliable, not a beast but far from weak. This has earned a permanent spot in my rotation.

   For a 2016 release, Radio Bombay deserves more attention than it gets. The first minutes are all about Woody Notes with a hint of Cedar — it grabs attention without being pushy. Right away I get mostly Woody Notes alongside Cedar, fresh and very easy to wear. In cooler weather it sits closer to the skin, which I actually prefer here. Full-bottle worthy without a doubt.

   For a 2016 release, Radio Bombay deserves more attention than it gets. Right away I get mostly Woody Notes alongside Cedar, fresh and very easy to wear. The drydown leans on Sandalwood plus Coconut and that is exactly where it feels most comfortable. It wears beautifully in the office; I can still catch it on my scarf at the end of the day. A very likeable composition that is easy to appreciate.

   Picked up a sample of Radio Bombay after reading the community buzz (2016). As it settles, Sandalwood and Coconut come through and give it real depth. The first minutes are all about Woody Notes with a hint of Cedar — it grabs attention without being pushy. It lasts through a full workday on me, which is exactly what I want. Full-bottle worthy without a doubt.

Sadly this one does not work on my skin.

    My first DS&Durga experience was this one, Radio Bombay (2016). After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Sandalwood with Iris, which is where the fragrance really shines. The very first sniff is crisp Woody Notes with Cedar peeking through, very much my kind of start. Longevity is moderate and the trail is noticeable without being loud. This one gets my highest praise — beautiful from start to finish.

    I needed a full wearing before I made my mind up about Radio Bombay. The drydown leans on Sandalwood plus Coconut and that is exactly where it feels most comfortable. Right away I get mostly Woody Notes alongside Cedar, fresh and very easy to wear. Performance is consistent: comfortable sillage and several hours of wear on my skin. A very likeable composition that is easy to appreciate.

    A friend passed me a decant of Radio Bombay (2016) and I wasn’t prepared for it. Right away I get mostly Woody Notes alongside Cedar, fresh and very easy to wear. The drydown leans on Sandalwood plus Coconut and that is exactly where it feels most comfortable. Performance is consistent: comfortable sillage and several hours of wear on my skin. It is fine, but it does not stand out in my collection.
