Shy Coconut
My first reaction to this was «It has to be coconut in this?» But it is not listed, so I don’t know what my nose is trying to pick up, but I swear. The first spray of this is fresh coconut!
The perfume itself is intimate and cozy with a prominent, sweet cardamum and a delicious white chocolate. Maybe it is the mix of these that make me get coconut? Nevertheless this is a creamy scent sent from heaven! The jasmine soon emerges but everything is well blended and even though it is very sweet it still feels pretty refined. Intimate and shy from afar but warm and cozy close up. It really is a perfume you want to inhale. And everytime you go in for a new sniff you smell something new.
When it dries down it feels like a thick vanilla scent? I guess that would be some blending of carmel/sandalwood/cardamum my nose misreads. Anyways – it fit together and gives almost this kind of vacation vibe. Like going out and eating a gelato after a long day at the beach.
After a while it may start to feel a bit too thick and cloying with the caramel, almost a sunscreen note in a way. But all in all, I do love the usage of white chocolate. So even though I feel like that particular note is problematic it never actually goes so far as to being too much for me.
I will have to say that I am a bit dissapointed in the longevity for this one, since ‘All Night’ and ‘Sweat, Tears and Paradise’ had such insanely longevities. Enough about that, this still is my definite favourite from this brand, and I will have to have a full size of this one. I mean, have you seen the bottles? They are so darn cute.
