By the editors · 2 min readCoconut leads the opening with creamy, sweet milkiness; cardamom adds a dry green-camphor edge underneath, and bergamot lifts the whole composition with a quick polished citrus. The start has more shape than a standard suntan accord, the cardamom keeping it from going saccharine immediately.
The heart shifts to a creamy white-yellow floral: jasmine soft and slightly indolic, ylang-ylang banana-sweet, heliotrope adding powdery almond-cherry warmth. Together they make the coconut feel less beach-towel and more cosmetic powder.
Musk alone closes the base, lending a clean skin finish that lets the coconut and florals fade gradually. Overall character: a coconut tropical-floral with a powdery almond drydown, more sophisticated than its top suggests. Projection moderate, longevity moderate, suitable for warm days.
