White Coconut

Although this is called White Coconut, it is a Chypre fragrance - think citrusy and woody with a marined coconut cream. It opens VERY citrus, although I'd say more bergamot than fresh orange, with the coconut developing from a fresh throught to a toasted scent as the vanilla, amber and woods open up. Very summery. Not quite a 'suncream' like Bronze Goddess, it swoops too close to the vanilla for that, but overall a nice scent. For an actually quite complex fragrance it's almost playing dumb in the simplistic description, but that is the point of this M&S range.

This is such a great perfume for the price! I mixed it with Le Monde Gourmand’s Fraise Fouettée and it’s my new favourite layered combo. A smooth, warm coconut which stays on clothes really well. It isn’t ground breaking on its own, but if you wanted a nice spray for holiday it would be a great one to take with you. I can see myself wearing this a lot when it comes to summertime (though honestly it’s warm enough that you can wear it in the winter without it coming across as odd).

This reminds me a little bit of Alien Goddess which is probably why I like it, but it’s not a dupe. The coconut in this is very woody rather than sweet, which I love because I find a lot of artificial coconut fragrances too sickly sweet. Fresh and clean, a little soapy and salty. Quite unisex, my husband enjoys wearing it too. Longevity isn’t great but it’s around £10 for 100ml. They do an edp version now, which does last a bit longer.

On my skin this transforms into a cologne or body spray version of MP Vanilla Powder. There is citrusy coconut with a salty amber incense. It just smells so good. This is not a gourmand Vanilla but a WOODY Chypre just like Vanilla Powder. I have no idea why this smells this way on me. I get a ton of compliments and people really think it's a weak dose of MP Vanilla Powder

This smells like a beautiful beachside vacation!! When I need a reminder of an island getaway, I just need a whiff of this stuff!! In fact I brought my bottle to the beach last week, it performs quite well in hot weather.

Nice little coconut cheapie. Lasts about 2 hours. Smells similar to ariana cloud. Very nice to layer with other perfumes and carry around to spritz over longer lasting coconut scented perfumes to give it a boost

It's beautiful! It's a fresh coconut amber perfume, but not the citrusy type. It's fresh but with a warm aromas mix. I love it, but it doesn't last long...

A brilliant scent, My favourite marks and spencer scent. It smells so beautiful and coconutty and fresh with just a hint of lemon. It smells beautiful.

What a beautiful perfume. I don't understand why people say it's longevity is poor. I could smell this on my shirt after 48 hours.... Just wow....

Coconut and beach scents are one of the things I can never get enough of and for the price point this is a really nice, distinctive take on the theme. It’s not a suncream or gourmand scent - opening is actually quite bitter citrusy chypre but the coconut comes through reasonably quickly and it settles to a very clean, very summery and unisex scent. Smells like the ideal of being effortless on a Mediterranean beach holiday - hair styled by seawater, linen sundress, sunkissed, wine in an ice bucket, not a trace of sweat, sunburn or seagulls - and in that respect serves as a decent dupe for Creed’s Virgin Island Water (which is imo the perfect coconut scent if not also the perfect summer scent). It doesn’t have the boozy note of the Creed, and no, it obviously isn’t as perfect, but given VIW is basically never going to be in my price range and this is £6 I’ll take it as a perfectly serviceable alternative to the same “classy seaside coconut” vibe!

It's not the typical coconut sent I was looking for - its OK. I don't love it or hate it. I detect a harsh citrus note on the first spray, and the coconut right behind it. The coconut is a very "dry" smell, not creamy or sweet. It's the coconut you get when you've smashed open the hard shell, and you can smell the hard inner shell that smells of woody coconut. The woody smell is the same smell you get when smashing open a Brazil nut. The smell of the woody coconut stays with a hint of vanilla throughout the day. It's different!

it's not really the sweet coconut most people would expect. it's quite... airy? like the smell of fresh air almost. it actually leans more masculine than i expected which i like. a good coconut androgynous perfume, which i think is rare since as i mentioned a lot of coconuts tend to run sweet and for more feminine scents. it's extremely cheap and cheerful so i can't really complain about it lasting for about 2 hours. the 30ml costs £7 after all.

Bought the discovery set, and today I'm trying white coconut. I had read that this was a dupe for sol de janeiro crush 62, which I have. And I do see similarities, its a much softer version, I don't get vanilla though. I don't think this one will make it to the full size bottle for me. It is beautiful, but I already have the crush 62. Great budget version. So far silliage is quite good.

This reminds me of Beach Walk and it’s super lovely. I think for the price of this you can’t go wrong really especially if you like a beachy scent. Don’t be fooled by the name although it’s a coconut scent it’s not a main character note and I find it well blended and totally wearable. M&S scents are well worth checking out.

Just had it delivered to me today. Nice citrusy scent. I can barely get the coconut or vanilla in it. I live in a hot climate so it works for those days when it’s so hot, I can barely breathe and don’t need any heavy fragrance.

the sillage is very weak. and the longevity is so short, gets quite soapy after a short time and also smells like a hair spray. might get overwhelming over some time

Lovely bargain perfume, smells very similar to the White Company scent Seychelles

It smells fine just nothing spectacular.

Beach walk muadili yorumları nedeniyle kör alış yaptım ve pişman oldum. Beach walk ile tek benzerlik ilk fıs ve ilk 10 saniye, ilk 10 saniyede güzel bir coconut kokusu alıyorsunuz ama hemen kayboluyor ve yerini yapış yapış patlayan şeker (portakallı) kokusuna bırakıyor. Bu yapışkan patlayan şeker kokusu hiçbir değişime uğramıyor, kuruyuş çok kötü. Bir de yaz mevsiminde kullanılabilirliğine bakıp ona göre bu parfümle ilgili kararımı vereceğim. This one was a blind buy because of the reviews about the Beach Walk similarity and I regretted it. The only similarity with Beach Walk is the first spray the first 10 seconds, you can smell a nice coconut scent in the first 10 seconds, but it disappears immediately and is replaced by the smell of sticky popping candy (orange). This sticky popping candy smell doesn't change at all, drydown is very bad. I will also check this one in summer and make my decision about this scent.

Tried this from the 2ml sample from the discovery set. To me this is a dupe of beach walk on my skin. To be honest I have yet to find a coconut perfume that I really like, it is not a note that I gravitate to. To be it's ok. Smells pleasant but doesn't lift my spirits or give me an intrigue. I would recommend this for those looking for a beach walk dupe as this is so cheap.
