Coconut Leche

I feel like this is a really underrated coconut fragrance! To me, it smells like creamy cashmere and milky toasted coconut, with slight undertones of tuberose and soft vanilla. It isn't sweet and it's not going to be a stereotypical beachy coconut, that being said, it is a delicious and cozy coconut for those who don't want fake, overly sweet sunscreen coconut. It does smell a bit intense at first spray but not so bad that it would have to be put into perfume timeout to mature before using. But, I bet it will definitely get even better as time goes on. It doesn't have as much tuberose to it as I had hoped but I still love this fragrance and feel like the notes all work together cohesively. It is safe for work and won't offend if you keep it to under 4 sprays. It plays nice with almost any fragrance I layer it with too. It was a blind buy for me, I enjoyed Tropical Kiss from the same line and had a good feeling about coconut leche. I wish it was as inexpensive as other Arabian perfumes I've bought, but feel like this one is worth $50 because of how large the bottle is and how elegant and cozy it smells. I bought the EOS Coconut Waters lotion to layer with it too, I would highly recommend trying that if you love yummy roasted coconut and soft cashmere type scents

Okay so... Imagine a tray of fresh coconut shavings, on top of that you add a drizzle of sweet vanilla and, surprisingly to my nose, either macadamia nuts or cashews (which I haven't seen anyone mention, not even in the notes, It's weird) You take this tray, and put it in the oven. You remove it once everything is perfectly browned, and then you proceed to take those contents and whip them in a blender. It's a soft, well blended, sweet but not too sweet scent of roasted coconut with a nuttiness that makes it so rich. If this sounds too gourmand, do not fear, because they've added to this mix a few white floral notes, which take this from a gourmand edible fragrance to a mature, coconutty sweet fragrance. To me, it's incredible, and don't understand some of the hate it had gotten. It's coconut without being beachy, lotion-esque, or too summery. It's perfect.

Yea I also agree its a sweet fragrance not a smoky fragrance to me, it really does smell like the marketing. I think I must have received an already macerated bottle because I am getting straight coconut meat and coconut milk, with a hint of Rafaello flavoured sweetness giving it a bit of cakeyness to me. Its definitely a gourmand full stop and a lovely perfume. Its not too sweet and sticky sweet like Creme of Clouds which I would not repurchase again because the burnt sugar was overwhelming, this is far better its the most accurate coconut cream fragrance to me. Its about as sweet as Nebras Elixir which is my absolute favourite fragrance and the level of sweetness I think is just perfect for daily non overwhelming office wear. Love it.

I have only a sample but I love it and will buy a full bottle. I get it why a lot of people hate it, it is quite unique to my nose. I can smell the coconut in the opening with slightly flowery note. In the dry down I get some woodyness, smokiness, sweetness with hint of flowers. I hate woody and smoky fragrances but in this one it is blended perfectly. The dry down remindes me of Afternoon Delight by Replica but better and stronger. The woodyness fades away with the time, it is gettineg weeker and weeker. If you are looking for true coconut or raffaello scent this is not her in my point of view.

Delicious toasted coconut cream! I mean, thick, rich, sweet coconut milk. This was intended to replicate Vanilla Powder but I think somewhere in the “lab”, the accord took a completely different turn. Thankfully I must say. As a lactonic gourmand lover, I can confirm that Coconut Leche smells like a standalone fragrance (not a dupe); unique, sweet, special. Very potent too, so be careful with your sprays. I’ve already gotten compliments wearing Coconut Leche and will recommend it for the colder seasons and maybe, cool summer evenings.

I don't understand the reason why most users are so against this perfume. In my opinion, this is a unisex perfume with toasted coconut and biscuit as the main notes. It is a linear perfume that does not change its smell and is more suitable for early spring and autumn and as I said is definitely unisex. علت مخالفت شدید اکثر کاربران رو در مورد این عطر درک نمیکنم از نظر من این عطری است یونیسکس که نارگیل برشته شده بعلاوه ی بیسکوییت از نتهای شاخص این عطر هست عطری است خطی که تغییر بویایی ندارد و بیشتر برای اوایل بهار و نیز پاییز مناسب است

If you bought it and don't like it, GIVE IT SOME TIME TO SIT! Very misunderstood fragrance. I understand some negative reviews because this is a fragrance with sharp coconut and it needs to sit for a while. The same thing happened with Eclair Affair. First it was a sharp coconut scent and then it became amazing and I can tell this is the same case with Coconut Leche. It's actually sweet but the coconut for now is a bit too sharp. Check for example below Jamie85's review, she says basically what I'm writing.

Interesting. I’ve always been a big fan of coconut in fragrances but, sadly, they’re only a few ones that don’t smell like sunscreen. This one doesn’t. I like it but I don’t love it. I own coco vanille from mancera and qaed al fursan from lattafa and no, this doesn’t smell similar to any of those perfumes, in fact those are quite different just between them. This doesn’t smell beachy it smells clean. Nice

This is so nice!! I really do not understand the negative reviews, even though I know perfume appreciation is highly subjective. This is a well-blended toasted coconut centric fragrance. Def unisex and def for coconut lovers, def good performance. The trick is to let it sit for a few weeks. Coconut lovers unite :))

I love Coconut Leche. I love layering it everything I own. I layer with Rose Jam for Sweetness. Cocoa Morando for Quirkiness. Stick dates again to add sweetness. It smells like creamed rice with roasted coconut. When I layer. After 8 hours I can still smell roasted coconut after all other notes have faded away.

I was NOT a fan of this perfume at first and gave it a terrible review.... However, now that it has been in my collection for a year, it has become one of the most ultra rich, thick and creamy, densely sweet, toasted coconut desserts that iv ever smelt 😍 I was a hater at first, but now I’m eating my words😂

You really need to like coconut to enjoy this fragrance. Very heavy on the coconut, smells like roasted coconut in the opening which turns into creamy coconut milk in the dry down. Non cloying to my nose, and it lasts on my clothes as well.

I'm a guy and its just about almost too feminine leankng, but f%#/ it, I love it. Its a clean, sweet, cozy, warm coconut, lotion, lactonic vanilla scent thats amazing. It has above average performance rihht out the box aswell, its awesome.

Étant un homme j'adore se parfum, la noix de coco est une de mes notes préférés avec la vanille. Se parfum va tout droit dans la lucarne. Je peux le porter toute l'année et en layering il fonctionne très bien

Let it macerate. Let it evolve. I purchased Coconut Leche when it was first released. I have owned my bottle since March. When I first received it and opened the bottle, I was quite surprised, disappointed, and concerned with my purchase. Like many have commented it is not what you expect - it smells like coconut in a very artificial way; it smells heavy, and sugary. It doesn't wear the name Coconut well. For the first couple of months I would even describe it as smelling like a concentration of toasted coconut flakes - like coconut sugar. It is now summer and I used it recently and it smells like a much more pleasant coconut and in fact I am very pleased with it now. I see myself reaching for it more now that it has changed for the better. Be patient with your Coconut Leche. It needs some time to grow and develop. I hope this encourages someone!

Wow, the reviews on here are truly hilarious ("putrid", "smoked meat", "nail polish remover", "coconut really burning", "rancid"). I think this scent is stunning but clearly I'm in the minority, and to be fair there haven't been any coconut scents ever that I disliked. Potentially people might be put off due to the fact that this isn't a particularly sweet coconut scent?

i kind of get both sides of the reviews, there’s something screechy in the first sprays that i really dont like and puts me incredibly off, but if i wait a few hours it just turns into this beautiful, elegant, flowery coconut that i really like!! i really hope that maceration can kind of save this lol

I can imagine this is only good if you LOVE coconut, and i can see why a lot of people may dislike this, but i like it! It kind of smells like the crust of a Raffaello, and in my opinion its pretty yummy!

رائحة فانيلا مع جوز الهند لكن جوز الهند ليس المنعشة إنما الثقيلة ، أشبه ما يكون برائحة حليب جوز الهند ، عطر رائحته اقرب البودي لوشن يصلح للإستخدام المنزلي أو المكتبي الهادئ

I wanted to love Coconut Leche. I needed to love it. The name alone whispered promises of creamy tropical paradise, a milky coconut dream, perhaps a soft breeze tousling your hair as you sip something decadent from a hollowed-out coconut on a private beach. For a fleeting, shimmering 7 seconds, give or take, I thought it was that dream. The opening is glorious. A creamy, sweet, mouthwatering splash of coconut, like the tropical gods themselves smiled upon me and said, “You’ve done it. You’ve found the one.” And then the betrayal. Suddenly, without warning, it morphs. The creamy sweetness dies a violent death, and from its fragrant corpse rises a dry, musty, haunting ghost of... what is that? Wet cardboard? Grandma’s attic? A beach towel that’s been festering in a plastic bag in the trunk of a car since last summer? It’s not just off, it’s offensive. I kept sniffing, hoping the magic would come back. It didn’t. The fragrance had taken my hope, shredded it, and sprinkled it with expired coconut flakes from a discount bulk bin. It’s as if the perfumer captured the soul of a delicious coconut dessert, and then buried it under a mound of damp laundry. Look, if Coconut Leche stayed the way it smelled in that first heavenly moment, I’d be writing sonnets. I’d be petitioning UNESCO to recognize it as a cultural treasure. But instead, I’m here wondering why my wrist smells like someone tried to ferment sunscreen in a gym locker. This is not coconut milk. This is coconut mildew. May it live forever in my regret pile. Edit: Ok, wait up. I spritzed some on my elbow, and kinda, maybe like it slightly from afar. Up close, it's still musty. And now, after a rigorous training session, it's sweeter - almost pleasant. What is this sorcery?! Maybe I'll put it in the maybe pile for now.
