Coach Dreams

As a big fan of the White Flower scent group, Coach Dreams is a blind buy that continues my super success 💋 It's a shame that Coach Dreams doesn't get more attention, I think its scent is very clean, fresh and smooth. I love this scent, the Gardenia and Cactus flowers seem to be blooming brightly on the background of Orange and Wood. Even though I don't smell the Pear clearly as the company described, I feel like Coach has really put sunshine in here, it's magical! Coach Dreams seems to describe an exciting trip of young girls throughout the American West. The first scent opens with the fresh taste of Bitter Orange and fruit. Perhaps this is the beginning of that poetic journey, when young people are spreading picnic mats, they exchange baskets of the freshest, most succulent fruits. After the initial period, Coach Dreams brought me to a new landscape filled with White Flowers of Gardenia and Cactus. I've never known what a Cactus Flower is like, but it seems to be very fragrant and suits my nose very well. I absolutely love this scent! It was like I was transformed into a girl on that very journey, standing in a convertible car enjoying the sunshine and wind, seeing myself speeding through deserts across the western United States. I saw the giant green Cactus bushes blooming with White Flowers, and saw the warm sunlight stretching across the road, that feeling was truly extraordinary and indescribable! And at the end of that trip, the car passed through the arid mountains, hidden in the space was the warm scent of Wood. Sunset seemed to gradually fall. But the end of the journey is not completely over. Behind the base scent, a late night scene appears in the middle of the desert, in the sky there are many, many stars... ✨✨ True to its name, the fragrance of Coach Dreams brings a beautiful dream. A vivid, joyful dream of youth songs, journeys of discovery, and a free and liberal lifestyle. OMG, I'm in love with this perfume, it's so poetic! For the hearts of dreamers 😍 Rating: 9/10. A dreamy, liberal love song of youth. It's a pity that the first blind buy can only buy the 60ml size. After using it all, I will definitely buy the largest size, a wonderful fragrance

I blind bought this about a week ago. The bottle is adorable and the notes sound nice and it was $23 for 1.3oz so why not?! When I got all my blind buys I sprayed this one on paper and thought, “hmm, yeah that’s pretty” 2 days ago I decided to actually wear it and my god, I can’t get enough! This is so beautiful and light but potent as hell on my skin. It lasts a good 9+ hours and projects for like 4. I wanna douse myself in this every time I walk by my fragrance dresser in my room. I’m surprised because I generally like deep boozy and darker gourmand scents and this is quite the opposite but I am also a huge fan of molecule frags—Ambroxan specifically— and I think that’s the note that really does it for me here. It’s not a scent that makes your nose grow tired because of its projection and longevity, like some gourmands or deeper/spicer frags can. I’m planning on buying the largest bottle this week when I get paid. I am also thinking about trying the Sunset flanker, but that one seems a bit more gourmand and not as airy (which is fine cause I am a gourmand girl). I’m really impressed with this scent. I definitely go through my phases with certain fragrances but this is just such an easy reach and amazing for every day wear. I don’t see myself getting tired of it. All in all, I’m probably gonna put some of my best friends onto this cause they usually come to me for suggestions and are always asking to borrow my perfume. This is definitely gonna be the one I hand them next time!

Clean, feminine scent for the office, lazy weekends, or coffee-dates...youthful, neat, fresh, crowd-pleasing. Best in warmer weather. Abit detergent-like, but in the nicest way. I feel like Coach Dreams is an updated, younger version of Burberry Weekend that my mom wore in the late 90s, it gives me the same vibe (cozy fresh laundry, dewy flowers and fruits), but lighter and white-floral-centric. The gardenia here is very clean, abit soapy, slightly creamy, I feel like there’s also jasmine in there. A touch of fruity sweetness, and the cactus gives it abit of a green dewiness. For some reason, the sweet fruity notes come through better on fabric and paper, but on my skin and in the air, it’s mostly a fresh creamy white floral, greenish and shower-fresh, with just a hint of fruit in the opening. Don’t overthink it, this is something you wear when you just need to smell nice, feminine and clean, and not offend people. You’ll probably receive compliments that you smell good. Moderate sillage and longevity. Good for all ages, safe for gifting to young teen girls, their 40 year old moms, their grandmoms, and any age inbetween. I prefer pairing it with Sunset Dreams, which is also a clean smelling floral with fruit, but it’s sweeter and more vanilla forward, they smell much prettier together than alone. Not worth full retail price for me personally, I got both this one and Sunset Dreams at a huge discount, so I’m very happy with the purchase. I think they’ll get used up quickly.

This one is beautiful. This is my wheelhouse of scent though. Call it boring but I love it. I cannot stand woody dark musky scents. This is floral light and citrusy all day. I adore gardenia so once I read that as a prevalent note I grabbed it up at Ulta. I had coupons and discounts. Plus. I got a bunch of free crap I could give as gifts 🤣 so win win even if I disliked the perfume. I do not! Very similar to other gardenia heavy scents. Yes. Reminds me of Liz Taylor’s. Gardenia. But has more fruity undertone. Also reminds me of both Kim Kardashians Citrus and Crystal Gardenia’s but they’re both unique. I have crystal and it’s very dark almost a woody gardenia. This also holds out on its own because it has that pear and cactus flower note! Which. I adore. B&BW has a cactus flower candle body spray and etc that I love and this perfume is like they took both gardenias and cactus flower and blended them with fruity pears and sweet lilies. Beautifully done. The bottle is unique. I like the shape. The paper on the front for the name. It’s actual paper. Not a stamp. The topper while confusing (I broke the display at ulta 😩) it’s cool and the leather surround at the top just shows the uniqueness that commands a Coach fragrance. I love the Coach brand and think this pairs well with any new leather good item from Coach as well.

Holy gardenia, Batman! I love pear in fragrances, but it is really fleeting in this one and I smell no other fruit after about 5 min because the gardenia bursts through the door at that point and commands the room for about the next three to four hours. It rambles from humid and heady to crisp and milky, before the 'fresh' note comes in around hour 4. Then I can also smell a nearby mountain spring, some other floral note (cactus flower, I guess - I'm still learning to recognize that note) that turns things kind of green, all mellowed by the ambroxan/woody base notes. It's a love for me bc I have always adored gardenia, but the force is strong with this one, so if you are not a lover, beware. Sillage is good (I still smelled it in my bathroom more than an hour later) and longevity is excellent. I wore it yesterday and still got a burst of it when I stepped into the shower this morning and the warm water hit my chest. Strangely, Dreams hangs out far longer on my skin, than on my clothes, which isn't often the case. It's winter here in SoCal and the juxtaposition of this gardenia bomb with the crisp, 40 degree mornings here is nice.
