From its website, here are descriptions of the Designer Collection Perfume Oils by Cosway.
1. Ocean Fresh - A marine-inspired blend of fruity florals, enhanced by woody, musky notes and hints of amber.
2. Green Pastelle - A floral, green fragrance with delicate soft notes of white lilies, jasmine and orange blossom harmoniously blended with a warm base of wood and musk.
3. Floral Musk - A fresh ozonic fragrance with fruity floral top noted beautifully rounded with jasmine, red rose, cyclamen and enriched by a musky, woody and powdery base.
4. Musk Blossom - A soft, sensuous scent harmoniously balanced with woody and musky undertones.
5. Dewberry - A heady fragrance with prominent notes of dewberry with a sweet floral and woody base.
6. Oriental Bouquet - A romantic fragrance with a fresh floral top note built on a smooth warm base of vanilla and woody notes.
7. Juba - A sensuous fragrance with a ripe base of sandalwood, white plum and amber complete this classic, spirited creation.
What I have is Designer Collection Ocean Fresh Perfume Oil. It's a unisex, leaning towards masculine, scent. It largely reminds me of a room fragrance oil I once purchased labeled Ocean Breeze. I wouldn't describe it as fresh. It's warm, musky, aquatic and floral. I get lotus, melon and lily notes from it. It belongs to the same family as Issey Miyake L' eau D' Issey and Davidoff Cool Water for women. I appreciate this scent more when I wear it during cold weather.
Designer Collection Ocean Fresh Perfume Oil does not last as long as other perfume oils or perfumes which use oil as carriers. Like these perfumes, it stays close to the skin. Sister says it's not there when I asked her an hour after applying but I still can smell it four hours later. She was about two feet away from me. And yes, she has a working sense of smell.
The 17ml flacon can easily fit into a purse and my fist. The twist-off cap has a dipper / wand which can be used to dab the perfume oil on.
A review on Fragrantica mentioned Juba is a dupe of The Body Shop's Juba Perfume Oil. Going through the perfume oils listed on Fragrantica's The Body Shop page, it would seem that Cosway Designer Perfume Oils have The Body Shop counterparts.
Manufactured in Malaysia, Designer Collection Perfume Oils are available in SG and Malaysia though I do not know exactly where 'coz mine was a gift.
