Baby Phat Dare Me

I liked some Kimora's frag in the past so i decided to give it a spritz. Wow! Immediately, i loved it. I thought it was tiare flower and coconut(it was magnolia and coconut) and it just smelled summery and light. Immediately, i had an image of beautiful sandy beaches, blue water and beautiful bronzed women, sipping pina colada. This is really light and airy fragrance, not overpowering at all. I did smell the magnolia note but its very light and fresh and almost right away coconut takes over. there is a hint of sandalwood and musk on the drydown but coconut predominates from start to finish. So basicly, this is coconut scent with just the hint of floral notes. There is nothing fruity about it so i don't know where other posters smelling fruit. And for the record- i smelled one from Harajuku Lovers and prefer this. I also own Exotic Coconut from BBW and Coconut Passion from VS and Dare me IS different from both of these. My H said it smelled like suntan lotion-mind you i concur but i think its really NICE suntan lotion. Lasting power is not the greatest-maybe couple of hours at the most so i layered it with Exotic Coconut from BBW to give it a bit more lasting power but i think any coconut lotion would do. Did i mention that it was $16 and i bought it on the spot? Heck, i really promised myself that i wouldn't buy perfumes impulsively but i couldn't resist this! And i love the pink and girly bottle! Notes: magnolia, coconut, honeysuckle, african milkwood, sandalwood, cream musk

I used to wear this perfume in high school, and I recently purchased a rollerball version for purely nostalgic reasons. This fragrance is as lovely as I remember. A lot of people have this pinned as a coconut scent, which the coconut is quite prominent, but for me the magnolia is what shines the brightest. The coconut and musk are more noticeable in the dry down. It has almost a solar quality to it upon first application... younger me had good tastes. I can see why I wore this so much. Its a lovely floral coconut scent, very inoffensive. It's slightly sweet, but not overly sugary to the nose. A great summer scent for a younger demographic, but even at 30, I know I'll still wear this... on days when I wanna feel 16 again.

I had this years ago and absolutely adored this fragrance. I had no clue it was a coconut frag cause I usually steer away from heavy coconut scents. I got absolutely no coconut in this but I’m considering buying some again even if it’s just for nostalgic reasons. I still have it’s “Luv Me” counterpart and I like it now much more than I did back then... but I still dream of having this in my collection again.

I love this perfume because I love coconut. It smells super yummy warm coconutty! If you are not a fan of coconut you will most likely not like this. I would have to say wearing this on a warm summer day would be absolutely delicious! **The more I wear this the more obsessed I become...this stuff is just fantastic!!! I love love love love it. Light, fresh, warm, coconut lovliness!!!

Even after all of the perfumes that I own and love, this one is truly my absolute favorite. I never get bored with this one. I like how the coconut stands out among the fruitiness and it just has the right amount of honeysuckle and magnolia without being too overpowering. I am in love with the muskiness and the sandalwood notes in this as well. It's sexy and affordable!

Oh it does smell a lot like beyonce's heat in the opening at first spray, then the coconut and the rest of the notes follow through , making this perfume unique in its own pretty way and not a dupe to Beyonce's Heat. Amazing fragrance! I could go through a bottle in less than a month or two (well the 30ml bottle anyway. And I definitely love coconut.

I love this perfume, it is gorgeous. I definitely get the burst of coconut upon first spray, which is delicious. I love the beautiful trail of woodsy, musky, floral goodness that is left at the end of the day when I wear this. It is a definite treat for any time for me.

This is pure guilty pleasure! I love the excessively teenage bottle and the hot pink crystal cap. Even the cheesy name is fun, though its hard not to laugh when telling someone that you are wearing Baby Phat. Love the tropical fruity scent although in no way do i find it new or original. Though less aquatic,its very similar to Victoria's Secret Very Sexy Now The Beauty of Brazil, which was last years guilty pleasure buy. Both these scents aren't very interesting on their own but something about their bottles and general design and marketing really drew me in. It added that special something...or maybe im just a sucker in a capitalistic world. Either way, this fragrance makes me happy and is for those days when its warm and i want to wear a skirt and not think too much. The pleasant surprise was that the woods in Dare Me really come out on my skin and turn a very generic summer scent into something a little more sensual and intimate.

I had a big ass bottle that lived in my car as an emergency frag from about 2012-2021, another reviewer mentioned Kmart, I must've bought it there, Kmart used to be my jam before they all were shuttered. I remember buying it because it smelled like suntan oil, I used to be all about those monoi/coconut scents. Reminds me of G by Gwen Stefani. Nice, tropical, but forgettable. I'm sure it's discontinued but you can find similar out there. Edit: If you like this, you will probably like Lancome's La Vie Est Belle Soleil Cristal, they smell very similar. LVEBSC is more mature smelling, though.

I was given this as a gift and didn't wear it for a while as all I smelt was coconut oil sun tan lotion. NOT a smell I particularly enjoy.. However, I randomly decided to wear this one summer day and got so many compliments! People seem to like sweet coconut spice smells. It's not an every day perfume and for me? I tend to wear this on hot summer nights when going out on the town! :) Downside: Besides the very sweet sickly smell at first, is that the perfume itself doesn't linger very long so you're having to re-spray more often than not.

I really like this, close to a love even. The coconut, woods and magnolia really stand out.. Sillage started out very good but in less than an hour it was almost gone and after an hour not a hint remained. What a shame!! This will be another 'pillow' scent for me.. Spray on my pillows for sweet dreams and I wont be disappointed when it disappears so fast.. A+ for smell A for cute bottle C for sillage F for longivity

I like Dare me. Especially now in summer. It's a very nice coconut scent. Of course you have to be into coconut for liking it :) So, if you liked Avons Tahitian Holiday, this is a good and longer staying replacement. So far I only bought a mini-bottle, because I had to blind-buy. But I would consider buying a bigger one afterwards. PS: I also don't agree: it does not at all smell like Heat by Beyonce.

Ok, so it arrived! It is sweeeeeeeeeeet with a capital S! I currently smell like a coconut slice, and it's making me seriously hungry. It also has like a hair spray kinda undertone, which I actually like. Does that make me strange? If you love coconut, you'll love this. EDIT: I just layered this with Jess Simpson's FANCY. The result is spectacular! Nom nom nom

I have a different comparison to Dare Me than Heat. EL Pleasures Delight, add a tart fruit note. I can't decide overall what I think but in general I like it. It has a sharper fruit note on my skin than it did on paper and I really liked the softer quality it had on paper. This is where I can't quite decide. Nice, not in love, but I like it.

This is the only perfume that has coconut that I can actually stand without getting a headache. I love coconut. There were some perfumes that I had, that had coconut and they were just to strong and cloying. I felt like I couldn't breathe. But not this one. This is softer and creamier, which I enjoy.

The coconut is very prevalent. The fruits and wood notes seem to stay in the background. It reminds me of suntan lotion but this is much better because of the additional supporting notes. Like backup singers where the coconut is front and centre. I think it will be fun to wear in the summer.

I have tryed Dare Me and it does smell alittle like Beyonce's Heat. Maybe when you open the bottle other than that, the two don't smell alike, at least not on my skin.

I was looking for a playful, summery scent for the daytime on the weekends & found this perfect scent!! It's fruity & creamy & totally is a summer fun fragrance.

i just received it today. its girly, fresh and can be used for evey occation - in general i like it, but its not long lasting... too much coconut!

I wore dare me on one wrist and heat on the other, they are pretty much identical. The lasting power was the same on both
