Coconut Cove

This does not smell like soleil blanc in the slightest. What this DOES smell like, however, is coconut fizz from Guerlain almost EXACTLY once it starts drying. This is a very fresh, watery, zesty coconut. If you’re looking for creamy coconut, or suntan lotion coconut, look elsewhere cause this is not it. However, if you love coconut fizz but don’t want to pay the price for a bottle now that it’s discontinued, this is as close as you’re going to get. I wont pull this trigger on this as I already own coconut fizz and it would be redundant, but I love this scent profile. I little zingy, a little nutty. I like it a lot. If you like aquatic coconut scents, get this.

I may have discovered this too late in the summer because WOW. Coconut that's not sunscreen-y like many perfumes that smells super fresh and unisex. It's really unique. I sprayed this for work the last few days and I get little whiffs of it here and there and it just settles into something clean and sparkly. The citrus and the coconut work so well together. To get the lasting power you need you definitely need to overspray, but since I have just the sample a few does the trick for an intimate projection. Definitely something to grab next summer.

** I was sent this by the brand, but review is completely my own opinion** I personally find this to be my perfect coconut scent. Its not sweet, but its musky fresh coconut with a hint of bergamot. It lasts about 8 hours on clothes and about 6 on the skin. The first time i tried this, i smelled it on paper and i HATED it. I thought it was thick and salty and too floral but on the skin it mellows out and becomes a really nice airy musky coconut i personally dont get any florals when its on my skin

This to me is a warm & dry coconut scent. Slightly sweet from the Bergamot & Vanilla. I layered this with Madagascar Vanilla fragrance and it was beautiful together. On it's own though, it's a very easy wear. It's a warm coconut, perfect for a summer evening. Nothing unique that I haven't smelled before. But for the price I think if you need a realistic hairy coconut bark with a little sweetness in your collection then go for this.

The Gardenia and Jasmine really add nicely balanced floral notes to this Coconut fragrance. And the sandalwood grounds the base of the fragrance. Skylar "Coconut Cove" and 7 Virtues "Coconut Sun" are my two favorite "designer" Coconut fragrances. The Skylar has more floral notes whereas the 7 Virtues is absent of those floral notes.. but both are my favorites when it comes to "basic" Coconut fragrances. So basic.. but so Good. 😊

Just a delight to wear! Flirty, cool, floral, and warm all at once with that delicious note of coconut in the first few hours. Put it on in the afternoon yesterday, can still smell that faint warm and green fragrance this morning. I'm going to have to get me a big bottle of this! Perfect summer fun fragrance!

This smells extremely similar to Wild Vanilla Orchid by Floral Street on the dry down and in composition. This is a slightly green, complex and very floral coconut. I quite like the dry down on me which smells of orchid, helitrope, vanilla and coconut with just a hint of the brighter top notes.

I bought a rollerball(travel size) of Skylar "Coconut Cove" over 2 years ago and hadn't used it in about 18 months. I used it tonight and it still smells really good, lasts long(much longer than most other similarly priced fragrances) and has a nice sillage. 8.5/10

This scent is perfect for the hot, humid, tropical climate I live in. I could wear it day or night, love the coconut and it's just sweet enough without being cloying. However, it doesn't last at all and is quite expensive so I'm gonna go ahead and look for a dupe.

Immediately this smells to me exactly like coppertone sunscreen or oil from the 70s. I loved the beach so it is a good scent to me. I think of powdery coconut with a hint of light floral jasmine in the background. Fresh and clean with a slight synthetic trail.

One of the best coconut perfumes I have ever had, and one of Skylar's best as well. No sunscreen smell at all, and I also wear it in the winter. It is like a fresh, green, clean smelling coconut; sweet but not too sweet.

This actually had decent longevity compared to most Skylar scents I’ve tried. It starts out as a light, warm coconutty scent, and it dries to a resinous amber skin scent thanks to the ambroxan the lasted for hours.

I like this a lot more than I thought I would! I get coconut water and a creamy woodsy base that reminds me of oats haha. Not sure yet if I want a full bottle but my sample is a nice surprise.

It's coconut-ty without being too sweet. It's fresh and light due to the citrus notes with just the perfect amount of coconut. Nice to wear on a hot day.

So glad I found a cheaper version of Soleil Blanc. They are almost identical. Creamy coconut

Beachy, coconut, softly sweet, warm/amber, white floral, citrusy, lactonic, woody, musky, vanilla, floral, fresh, green, luminous, refreshing, natural, feminine, chic, transportive, nostalgic, unique On me this opens very citrusy with bright and tart bergamot, sparkling and zesty lemon, fresh spicy cardamom, and a soft and slightly musky hibiscus. The heart blooms with lush jasmine and gardenia, dewy green notes, and a very natural tropical coconut. The dry down intertwines softly musky and slightly salty ambroxan, sensual woodsy notes, the vanilla leaning floral heliotrope, and delicate vanilla orchid which really helps to ground the scent, and balance out the citrusy and green notes. I’m a huge fan of beachy/coconut fragrances, so I was super excited to finally get this one. Unfortunately, I don’t love it as much as I’d expected to, but it’s still pretty. It’s very natural and refreshing. I don’t overly enjoy the opening as I get a lot of bergamot, lemon, and green notes. However, the dry down is really nice! Also, this isn’t one of those beachy scents that smells like sunscreen/tanning lotion (although I absolutely love those). This does remind me slightly of Kayali Maldives in a Bottle (probably the closest in similarity, but still quite different), The 7 Virtues Coconut Sun, Alien Goddess, Nest Balinese Coconut, and Phlur Coconut Skin. However, I don’t find any of them to be that similar to Coconut Cove. It’s actually a rather unique scent. I do own several Skylar fragrances including Boardwalk Delight (my favorite!), Caramel Alps (2nd favorite), Vanilla Sky, Fall Cashmere, Nude Skin, Sweet Morningside, and Pink Canyon (my least favorite, it was a free gift with purchase). For reference, some of my favorite beachy/coconut fragrances include Tom Ford Soleil Blanc, Nest Sunkissed Hibiscus, Kilian Sunkissed goddess, Yves Rocher Monoi Eau des Vahines, Estée Lauder Bronze Goddess, Replica Beach Walk, Kayali Maui in a Bottle, Maldives in a Bottle, Utopia Vanilla Coco, JHAG Lust For Sun, Vanilla Vibes, Bobbi Brown Beach, Alien Goddess, Ellis Brooklyn Sand, Vanilla Salt, Miami Nectar, Phlur Beach Skin, The 7 Virtues Coconut Sun, Flowerbomb Tiger Lily, VS Tease Dreamer, SDJ 39, Rio Radiance/87, Beijos de Sol, Flor Mística, BBW Coco Paradise, Oahu Coconut Sunset, At the Beach, Bali Black Coconut Sands, Forever Beach Days, Copper Coconut Sands

UPDATE: I dislike the drydown for this one so much. It has that same musk note many other gourmands— such as certain Kayali and Dua Brand fragrances use. I have demoted it to "like" accordingly. I tried 13 different Skylar perfumes almost immediately upon arrival— despite that they will surely have at least a little bottleshock. And I was most pleasantly surprised by this one. Bergamot and ambrox notes are very hit or miss for me, but they work beautifully here. The greenness is beautiful and there's only a mild fresh bergamot and green coconut upon application. There's no muskiness, so it smells clean, but the subtle sweetness keeps it from associations with soap fragrances. Despite the name, it does not smell like sunscreen or suntan lotion, which is more of a salty sweet photorealistic coconut. If that is the desired outcome, Nest's Balinese Coconut fragrance oil is much closer, though also much subtler and luxurious. This is decidedly floral due to prominent gardenia and a touch of jasmine with those beautiful modern luminous wood notes, often found in the solar fragrance category. Another reviewer refers to this as akigalawood, and I am not familiar, so I will defer to their judgement until I can confirm it for myself or learn otherwise. None of the Skylar fragrances smell premium to me so far except possibly this one, Cherry Baby, and Fall Cashmere. Most seem to be plagued by an inexplicable saccharine note— as in the actual artificial sweetener, not overly sweet. But I will let them all sit and recover from their journey, and hopefully that will show them at their best. I ordered these in mid-April, ground shipped across the nation from California to nearly the East Coast, so it's possible they were exposed to extreme heat on the way as well as shakes and other misadventures. I look forward to reviewing the others soon enough.

I really enjoy this scent! Coconut is a tough note for me. I like it in theory, but it's often paired with other notes that I don't enjoy. I especially am not a fan of the sunscreeny-coconut that is super popular. It's not bad! But that scent profile gets tiring very quickly and its just not a type of scent that I would EVER reach for except when going to the beach/pool to swim or hang out in the sun. Coconut Cove, however, is very lovely! I can immediately smell the coconut, the lemon, a bit of white florals - but it's not too overpowering. I can also smell some musk in here and it works so well with the coconut. This is all within 3 minutes of spraying each of my wrists three times. This is really lovely. I hope the woodsy notes come out more. I'll update! Bottom line: This is niceeeeee. I think I could actually see myself buying a bottle (or a travel size if it came in spray form and not rollerball form) and reaching for this. edit: after 4 or 5 hours what was mostly left is just musk. Musk with a slight coconut note. Very pleasant, but the best part of this fragrance is the first couple of hours in my opinion. I don't know if I would actually buy a bottle of this.

Mmmm, I have a sample of this and tested this out for the first time. I sprayed it on my arm and went about my day, I like the scent during the first spray and as it dries down. After a few hours I came back to smell if the scent was still there and it wasn't. I gave this a second try and I am still liking the first initial spray and when it dries down I get the bergamot, and coconut. It is not overly sweet which is great for hot humid weathers. I am still testing this, I will definitely come back and write my opinion on the fragrance lasting. Update: I have made a dent in this perfume throughout the summer, which says that I really like Coconut Cove a lot. Though it does not last long on skin and clothing on me I am going to just wear this on walks, to layer with and to run errands.

upon initial application (rollerball)... smells kind of spicy-warm-sweet? cardamom, citrus, green notes, coconut cream. then after a few mins, a little white florals and woods. the coconut becomes dry but still creamy - like a sunscreen. eventually dries down into a slightly sweet ambrox. i actually adore the ambrox scent, and would put this as a 'love' if not for the fact that this is called Coconut Cove and the coconut doesn't last. i'll tolerate the strange opening just for the drydown! what's really fascinating is that i don't relate to many of the reviews below, and nobody else has commented on the warm citrus spicy opening aside from @sarahsra who mentioned tom kha gai. the ambrox likely makes this this smell different on everyone, so i'd say this isn't a safe blind buy.
