The coconut custard flan of my dreams
Picture an eggy, creamy, vanilla-coconut custard blended beautifully and bottled up - like a delicious flan. All notes are present: the egg whites, vanilla, sugar, and coconut. It's a light, fluffy, sweet gourmand combo that I've been craving for years, but haven't been able to find anywhere else.
This feels like something that would be sold at Victoria's Secret, along the lines of Bare Vanilla and Vanilla Lace Fragrance Mist - but even MORE gourmand. It's realistic, but also sexy and wears like a dream (nothing weird about the egg notes - just adds to the richness/custard feel).
Only downside: it dried down to a faint whisper of the opening within an hour of wearing, which is normal with Demeter fragrances. But considering the price and unique deliciousness, it has still become one of my favorites.
P.S. This review was originally written a while ago, and I'm now seeing that there does seem to be consistency issues between batches. I'd only had a sample which was beautiful, but recently ordered more of Angel Food from them and noticed a "vinegar" like undertone to the blend - so I'm hoping this goes away with maceration, but will come back to update if it does not. Would recommend ordering a sample from them first, before blind-buying a full bottle.
