Fiji Paradise

This is suprisingly strong. Especially for a coconut scent. It has to be the most long lasting one that i have ever tried. Reminds me of Mark Instant Vacation spray (the original discontinued one) but without the chlorine. If you like that i would recommend getting this because i have both but do like the added chlorine type note in Instant Vacation better. Instant Vacation is now hard to find and costly. Plus it is a spray mist so it may turn any day now like all of Mark's other fragrances in his instant vaca line. I was in love with coconut perfumes for a very long time but have ended up with so many that i no longer desire them when they are so linear. I do not get very much,if any,lotus which has become one of my favorite accords in spring & summer scents. There must be a lot of musk supporting the tiare & coconut due to it's intense sillage and longevity. I only layer this as a base for my other light summer scents. I love the color of the liquid. If it is layered on top of something else Fiji always squashes all the molecules in any other perfume i have tried.

Fiji Paradise is mild airy coconut scent. If I hadn’t read the notes here, I would have guessed coconut and ylang ylang. Very simple and soft, and has a freshness to it that I don’t usually associate with coconut. Not so much a suntan lotion smell, but more of breezy coconut, as if you smell it in the air combined with flowers.

I smell more of a soft tropical breezy coconut smell. Very faint floral notes, more aquatic. I'm not huge on coconut but this isn't to overwhelming. Good for a summer day but not much more.

I still have a bottle of this. I loved it so much and wore it all the time. I now have Maison margiela Beach walk which to me smells identical even side by side

Now I remember why I liked this on my friend but never got it for myself. It's pretty but kind of boring. I don't get the plastic smell others talk about but rather a cocoa butter body soap. I layered it with Near Dusk by Jennifer Aniston and it is beautiful together. Alone: Longevity: about 5 hour Sillage: little further than arms length but not too much further. With Near Dusk Longevity: 8 hours Sillage: about 6 feet
