Aquatic Coconut

This is one of the first scents that I tried from dossier and I loved it! It smells tropical without smelling cliche. I enjoyed Dossier’s dupe so much that I wanted to try the original, Replica’s Beach Walk. They smell the same to me but Replica has a bit more longevity.

really nice... expected a lot more tropical and citrus though. it just kind of smells like soap and flowers. mildly disappointed but i hope the person im gifting it to for their bday likes it.

Smells like sunscreen but in a good way, definitely summer in a bottle.

Dossier Aquatic Coconut is very much a feminine scent and one of the more feminine scents I've own and I do own quite a few unisex fragrances even some that lean feminine. I think only one that I own is as if not more feminine and that was a take on flowerbomb that Bigelow and Bath and Body Works teamed up on. I don't recall Beach Walk being as much of one, but it is. If you are male and want a similar beachy fragrance, Dua #BeachVibes could be a good option. The reason I find it feminine is the ylang-ylang note that for me even though it is a mid note, it is a note I get mixing in with the citrus made of bergamot and lemon. I do also get the coconut up top but as much as the ylang-ylang. That said it dies off an hour in and goes more coconut. I do not really notice the pink pepper and heliotrope. The tonka is barely there but it isn't that sweet. The fragrance lasts about three to four hours. I feel it works for more casual use than I would say Beach Walk would be. Seasonality is spring but more so summer. I would wear it for days or afternoons but not night specifically. I wouldn't spray after 6. Aquatic Coconut smells beachy. I mentioned #BeachVibes as an option, especially since On the Beach is discontinued and was more expensive. That said it was more sandy and less floral. Of course if you want to pay for it Beach Walk itself is pretty similar though I think it was less ylang-ylang heavy to my nose than this is especially off the top. Dossier can make good Maison Margela clones so I was a little let down by this spring summer scent. Those two being Woody Chestnut is really good but not as good as say Stronger With You (but to be fair By the Fireplace is different than Stronger With You and its clones and dupes) and the amazing Woody Tobacco (how is this Jazz Club dupe missing from the database?) So I am not sure what it was here with Aquatic Coconut. For this I rate it a 7. I likely will pass it off to my girlfriend if I can.

Dossier has been on a roll lately. This is officially my go to summer scent. So delicious, sunscreen scent without being a true sunscreen scent. It’s absolutely amazing at an amazing price!!

Smells like a refreshing walk on a beach with a nice cold piña colada. Would be nice if it lasted longer. It only seems to last minutes.

Ordered a sample of Beach Walk and couldnt stomach the price tag. Aquatic Coconut is a perfect dupe, to my nose- though a lot louder than the real deal. If anything this one is less blended... I smell floral, melon, creamy coconut. It smells less like sunscreen and more like pretty, creamy florals.

UPDATE: I purchased and completed a full, new bottle of this off Dossier’s website with a coupon. I plan on purchasing again for next summer. An absolutely gorgeous interpretation of Maison Margela’s “Beach Walk.” Before trying the OG, this scent DNA was alien to me. This was a love-at-first-sniff for me when I tried a tester at Sephora. However, I refuse to pay over $100 for a toilette potency. Aquatic Coconut reads as a better balanced, slightly sweeter and more potent “Beach Walk” in that the notes and olfactory journey are near identical: bright, sweet but not too sweet. This summer stunner captures the feel of being on the beach in a visceral way. I love how it FEELS like summer. I get suntan lotion, yellow tropical flowers, solar notes & coconut meat. I’m honestly obsessed! t’s an utter tropical dream paired with Miami nectar! 100/10. For a freshie, there’s a surprising level of longevity & projection. I get a solid 2-3 hours at over an arm’s length of projection and about 5 hours on skin (in the heat). While unisex, I think this very comfortably leans feminine of center. On the dry down, to my nose and on my skin, I get an elevated spa-produced coconut sunscreen coupled with yellow flowers. I love it! 20/10 stars!

Smells like you're driving along the Pacific Coast highway with the wind whipping through your hair and the waves crashing upon the shore. Smells like "California" even though I haven't been there yet. This is always the scent I've had in my mind when I think of California.

Excellent dupe for Vanilla Vibes by Juliette Has a Gun! May be even more vanilla forward and better balanced. Very good performer, lasts and projects!

The Heliotrope sends this one into the ladies room. Dries down to a flowery sunscreen. Maybe layering some earthier scents will tone down the bouquet.
