Montaigne Coco Maison Alhambra

This is what I was looking for! A coconut scent that doesn’t smell like the beach, suitable for winter.

So first of all, nothing against summery beach scents - I grew up by the beach and love such fragrances. But sometimes I want coconut in winter! And this one has such a subtle coconut note that seamlessly blends with the vanilla and ylang-ylang notes.

I must admit that I don’t perceive the peach. Instead, there’s an almost spicy note like a ghost note - the vanilla is by no means plain, but is beautifully accentuated by the woody notes.

Longevity could be a bit better. I sprayed this scent on my wrist before studying and had to keep sniffing it because it was so wonderfully fluffy. Towards the end of the study session, I noticed the scent less and less. Maybe I became noseblind: I can’t fully blame the perfume for that, as I had to keep sniffing it :D
