Tahitian Holiday

Ok, I have been looking for something like this for a while now. I have even tried some niche perfumes hoping that one of them would give me the illusion of the `coconut-beach-palm trees` feeling and here we go, I have found it in an Avon-scent! It just arrived today . So airy, subtle and light. Smells like coconut - but not in a sugary, gourmand way, this is far from the usual vanilla-coconut that you might expect. TH is a very nice coconut-flesh scent softened with tropical tiare flower and a hint of jasmin. Simple, but it works. I have never had a chance to visit a tropical place but this little EDT does the job - I am suddenly transported to faraway shores, palm trees and sandy beaches, grass skirts, coconut crush drinks with straws. Beautiful!!! I just wish that this holiday could last longer. Longevity: 3-4 hours on my skin and sillage is moderate but is definitely there. Tahitian Holiday will definitely accompany me on my upcoming beach holiday!!! Sadly not to the South Pacific though.

Reminds me a little of Calgon's great body mist, Hawaiian Ginger and VS Very Sexy Now Beach. Young and summery and simple and clean -- salty coconut with a hint of fresh musk. The monoi is not overdone. I get charged up by these simple scents in the winter and sometimes wear this to bed. I am on the lookout for shower gel -- is there even one? Can be had cheaply and doesn't smell like your typical Avon scent. How did I ever miss this? The bottle is cheerful too. Nicely done, Avon, even though you had to start testing on animals again, didn't ya, after being one of the original leaders in this area.

I adore this perfume. It's definitely a summer type fragrance. It really reminds me of being on a hot tropical beach, bathed in tanning oil. I wear this religiously come summer time and it makes me happy, every time I wear it. It's heavy on the coconut fragrance, but there a slight floral to it that reminds me of tropical flowers on the breeze. I love this so much that I"m on my second big bottle and already half way through that one! I hope they never discontinue this one! It's a winner for sure!

Omg, YUM!!! What a hidden gem! If you love coconut but hate sugary synthetic coconut that is everywhere these days, this is for you! It's a light, slightly marine, slightly green, and very natural (surprisingly) coconut milk scent. I know it will sound crazy to compare to such an expensive scent, but to me, this does to coconut what Malle's carnal flower does to tuberose. A MUST HAVE for those who like their coconut to smell like it's fresh off the tree :)

The fact that I really love the coconut scent makes this amazing. Truly it reminds me of summer when I was growing up and we'd go to the creek or the rare occasion the beach and we'd use the coconut scented sun screen, I loved that smell and this reminds me of that. I recommend this scent, but strongly caution you if you have a problem with coconut, that is the dominating scent, but it's GREAT.

Loved this, bought many, MANY bottles of it so I never ran out, as I LOVE coconut scents. But disappointingly it never last long, so I would go through a lot of it. If it lasted then this would be my all time fave perfume ever, but it has been easily replace with Harajuku lovers G with its sweet coconut scent and lasts waaaaay longer than tahitian holiday. So 'G' is my new perfume love.

non ancora in ferie, indosso un profumo di vacanze. è uno scherzo, un gioco: aria di mare, cocco e tiarè. come stare sulla spiaggia spalmandosi l'olio solare. breve persistenza, quello sì, ma da un'acqua così economica ed estiva non si può chiedere di più. coraggio, cardiano, qualche giorno ancora e poi si stacca!

Wauw this is a holiday fragrance alright! Like Cisco said it is a natural Coco fragrance, with extreme staying power and sillage. Where I found Bath & Bodyworks Exotic Coconut WAY over the top and not natural smelling, this perfume does live up to the promise. Thank you Orchidlover, for this wonderful perfume!!

I don't even usually like the smell of coconut or sweet perfumes but this was great. Once I smelled it in the Avon magazine, I was hooked. Super sexy, especially when you're at the beach. I'd always spray some of the hair mist in my hair and.. OH LAWRDY, I'd feel happy. Lasts a while too. 8/10

I love it. All Avon perfumes seems to smell the same, but this one stands out. It's different, it's sweet and coconuty. Sad part is that it doesn't last long since it's eau de toilette. But it's still amazing, i love it, perfect for summer.

A delicious coconut mojito. I was way too young to be wearing this as a child, but I remember it so fondly. Tropical, sweet, fresh coconut with a hint of lime. I wish I could smell like this all the time.

I love this and wore it all the time as a teen. I still have a bottle of this and it still smells as it did all those years ago, I now also have Maison margiela beach walk and find them identical

i only had the body mist and even it smelled awesome. it is great for beach or feeling like on the beach when ure at home. im sure all the mediterreneaners would love it.

Yum! Coconut lovely! If you are a coconut fan then this is a good one for your collection. This smells like the beach in a bottle! Vanilla Coconutty-licious!

I love this scent from Avon, the coconut stands out alot. sorry they discontinued it. Bring it back Avon

I love using this on a bleak autumn or winter day. Instant summer. It makes me happy.

Oh and I forgot, this is not a floral perfume. This is a spicy gourmand to my nose!

It was the best summer fragrance i have ever had. Sadly it is no longer available.

As I love Summery coconutty sun tan lotion smells, I have this, Yves Rocher Monoi eau des vahines and a bottle of Jovan Island Musk in my collection. Out of the three Avon Tahitian Holiday is my least favourite. I almost really love the smell but it does have a very annoying underlying synthetic smell that is a bit off putting. However it was also the cheapest of the three. I am happy to wear it, but it is nothing as powerful, coconutty, Summery and natural as Yves Rocher Monoi Eau Des Vahines, which is my Summer favourite. It has a very similar vibe though and reminds me of it a lot. Island Musk is more flowery and not coconutty but is still a very lovely white floral musky light Summery smell that I like a lot. Avon Tahitian Holiday I only just like... it sits in between the two others in terms of notes which is why I mention them both here, with the addition of the musk. All three are such great Summer budget buys, they all make you dream of lying in the hot sun, ever so slighlty sunburnt, with your turquoise bikini, palm trees swaying in the breeze, cocktail in hand and the gentle sound of crashing waves in the background... All three are very dreamy and exotic. If you love Monoi, and Island Musk and are looking for another Summer cheapie you will probably like this too. If you already own this, and like it, I'd recommend going for Yves Rocher Monoi next time as you will most likely be blown away by it as I was!

Sun kissed skin with a slight red sun burn glow, a few freckles on the nose making their annual summer appearance. Tahitian Holiday is the perfect perfume for sun worshiping by the pool, on the lake, or on a beach holiday or day cation. This is that beach-type tropical vacation blend. If you are looking for something that wears in a simple, pure, clean way - with a more simplistic version of Estee Lauder's Bronze Goddess, THIS IS IT! There is a part of me that really loves this. If I had have come across this when I was in junior high or early high school, this would most definitely have been one of my spring/summer perfumes. This is very close to the smell of the leading tan oil that I remember when on vacation in Hawaii - The name of that tanning oil was Wiki Wiki Tan Tan - and it was truly fabulous! This is not bad with my chemistry, although slightly a more natural, casual type genre than I typically wear. This may be a great perfume to layer with other perfumes that are along this same line. I will have to try that.
