I'll bust your coconut
Somewhere in the tropics.
A clueless man takes off his hat to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
Just at that moment, it falls as if in time lapse and lands exactly on the 12th
hole
The fruit shatters and a wonderful coconut scent pours over the poor tourist.
The rising freshness and coconut scent immediately make you forget the bump.
Then the alcohol dries and I'm back at my place. Even before I can ask myself what just happened, a flashback sets in.
At first I thought ofsomething sweetish/slightly citrusy a la bad scent or chewing gum. Then I'm back in my childhood. I don't know what I liked to snack on but that candy I had poisoned my young body with smelled just like that.
The coconut disappeared as quickly as it came here. Then the slightly sweet yet fresh bubble gum smell. Kind of tasty but still too fresh/sharp for me. I would have loved to change the station. That lays down then but so at 40-60 min.
The heart notes take over so slowly. The coconut scent comes out again and mixes with iris & the top notes. At first a little changeable, but the further he feeds the base the more brilliant the fragrance.
Sweetish, but not too penetrating. Soft & harmonious. In the background constantly a light freshness. A roller coaster of feelings: iris, coconut, iris, coconut...
A beautiful perfume when it arrives in the base. Oh and the coconut bomb at the beginning - also top. In between it's interesting, but not quite mine, especially at the price point of the Centenario.
But then jasmine, musk, iris & coconut cream.... lovely desert... light and airy. A feel-good scent, a good mood scent. Except for coconut, I can barely tell the notes apart. They flow into each other and I smile :)
Not too debauched for a centenary celebration and at ~7h only a few guests are still celebrating. Even the clothes only have a subtle scent of the Centenario left.
I am torn. I wouldn't have actively sought this one out now, and yet it's so well made that it goes on the nice to have list.
One of those fragrances that you wear when you're in a good mood and this mood increases in the felt expotentielle :P
