Great Summer Cheapie
Why is nobody talking about this scent? Especially now in summer, when all the influencers are promoting new and old coconut and tropical fragrances.

The scent smells so great. It is sweet, fresh, gourmand, and really delicious. The strongest notes are coconut and vanilla, without smelling like cheap plastic. And it can be found for a low price at the drugstore. Together with the body mist of the same name, you are enveloped in a sweet summery vacation scent. I don't care that it's a budget drugstore fragrance; I really like it in the summer. The longevity on my skin lasts up to 4 hours, and I can still smell it on my clothes the next day. At this price, I just reapply, it doesn't hurt. The bottle is a matter of taste, a typical slanted banana flacon, very thick glass.
Anyone who likes coconut scents should definitely give it a try.

Church and Vanilla Cookies
My first review... This scent compels me to write something.
Today I was at Zara, sniffing through the many fragrances that were new in "my" store. This included all the oud scents and the vanilla scents. Before I started sniffing, I read the fragrance notes here. This one, among others, has incense, vanilla, and cocoa. All things I really like. I first sprayed the scent on a paper strip and was amazed that it smelled so completely different from what I expected. Nothing sweet, nothing cocoa-like. What I did smell was a cold and incredibly authentic incense. I was immediately transported back to my childhood, seeing myself sitting with my dear grandma in our Catholic church, which I only went to on special occasions like the fair (church consecration), because my mother and I were Protestant and there is no incense there. I loved that smell when the priest swung the incense and spread it throughout the church. Many felt nauseous from it, which I could never understand; I found the scent festive and comforting. When the service was over and the church was empty, that scent still lingered, just somehow colder, like the church itself, which was always quite cold. This scent hung and still hangs in that church, where I go, for example, at Christmas to see the nativity scene. The church is open during the day, and you can go in anytime. Then it is empty, cold, and quiet, and it smells so good. That’s exactly how the scent smelled on the paper. Beautiful, but due to the listed fragrance notes, I still missed the sweetness and warmth of vanilla and cocoa. I then sprayed the scent on my skin, and only after a few minutes did the sweetness come through. Vanilla-like and also a bit of cocoa. Depending on what you focus on, you smell one or the other. And always with that wonderful incense note. Wow!!! Incredible, I have never smelled something so beautiful. I took a small bottle with me and kept sniffing my arm. I already know that I will get the large bottle next week because Zara fragrances often don’t last long.
It doesn’t really smell like vanilla cookies, but rather like a sweet, warm, enveloping, and cozy vanilla. This scent is beautiful and will be my constant companion in autumn and winter. The memories and feelings it evokes in me can always be recalled, which is simply wonderful.

I can't really comment on the longevity yet; after four hours, it felt weaker, but I still need to test it more extensively.
