Rockstar

Definitely a niche scent! Imagine you're on a beach in a tropical country, then you walk by a fruit stall. Since it's hot out, the scent of dalandan, mango, and coconut water mixes with the salty sea air when a light breeze goes by, giving this refreshing, fruity sweet, and uplifting scent that cuts through the heat and humidity. Performance: Longevity lasts around 6-8 hours with soft to medium projection (arm's length) until the 3rd hour, then it becomes a skin scent. The dry-down feels powdery and clean, which is an interesting contrast to the juicy tropical opening. When to wear: Perfect for the beach or summer vacation, and casual afternoon strolls. For the office, it depends on your workplace culture. In tropical countries like the Philippines where these fruit scents are everyday and familiar, it could work for more casual offices and give off a refreshing vibe. But for conservative corporate settings anywhere, it might lean too sweet and tropical.

Wow, this blew me away. The most balanced and intentional tropical scent I've smelled my entire life, I'll be ordering a full bottle soon. I specifically love how it dries down and it projects so much. I also loved the other perfume which was the Baguio Verde and found out they're made by the same perfumer Shale Albao. They don't smell similar, but they feel similar on how both fragrances are made. She's gotta be my favorite Filipino perfumer right now.

🌞🏝️ Rockstar - A new way to experience a tropical scent that does not have pineapple or a creamy sunscreen coconut. This is a happy fresh fruity aquatic, together with a refreshing coconut water and florals. Grounded with a woody base, without the scent being salty. It reminds you of how energized you are after drinking Gatorade’s Tropical Punch (the red one), ready to begin again and feel the extra energy coursing through you.

Oh, wow! The mango, black currant, and salt is just perfect. A solid 10/10, obviously.
