Tommy Bahama Very Cool

I've been intrigued by these Tommy Bahama fragrances and I've seen a few in the discount shops like Marshalls but never wanted to take a chance on a blind buy. I live in Florida, and need refreshing scents for the summer that can perform in the heat and humidity. This and Set Sail Martinique were in the Two for $60 case at Perfumania this weekend, and Hubby got his pick of the other one. I almost picked out Martinique for myself, but ulitmitly settled on Very Cool and I'm very happy I did! Upon Dry Down with was much preferred. As I'm smelling it again today, it is very true to its notes. Its sort of a musty citrus. You get the Tangerine and Mandarin, yes the pomegranate is there. The cactus and cassia are aquatic and musty, the hibiscus sort of dusty. The nectarine is there too! I don't get a musk smell, but I know its part of the mustiness. Musty sounds like a bad word to describe a good smell, but trust me its smells good! The sales lady told me it was somewhat like light blue, and if you think of a perfume that is more orange than lemon than yes it is sort of like light blue. I think I will LOVE wearing this freshie over the summer!

It smells like summer! Very fresh and refreshing...clean even. Whenever I wear this it makes me think of sand, salt and fruity orange infused drinks (maybe orange margaritas!). It literally smells like the beach. Every time I spritz it on I am amazed by the saltwater note and immediately start thinking about the beach. Its slightly sweet/ fruity and tropical but I really enjoy it. I usually like flowery or woody --earthy scents -- rather than fruits but I find this very interesting & crisp. Its definitely a scent I have to be in the mood for because on me it has a good sillage and lasts for hours. Can be overpowering sometimes other times it just wafts up to my nose like little waves. Its not an everyday scent for me but I like smelling the bottle. Will reach for more when things heat up again and I find myself longing for the beach as I lounge around the pool.

Very Cool is awesome. Took me a few tries to realize I loved it, as at first it seemed masculine. Well, it had staying power and every now and then through the day- it reminded me it was still there and pleasantly. It quickly became a favorite of mine. I have found it's always good to give a scent a second and third chance if you stray away your favorite notes. Since Very Cool- I always let the cologne speak to me. I now wear scents I never thought I would or could.

I have this and I love the fresh vibes it brings, it uplifts the spirit and transports me to a tropical island. Definitely smells like Island Fantasy by Britney Spears that is also very fresh, soft and very beachy smell. It's a winner! Highly recommend during summer on a hot weather as it has cooling effect that will keep you feeling fresh and lovely. Anyone can also pull this off when the weather is cold but to wear this during summer is just perfect! 10/10

I bought this as a blind buy at Ross' and I couldn't be happier with it! I love the opening aquatic citrus scent and also like the the soft dry down of the scent as well. It's lite and not offending so it could be suitable as an office scent. I notice as it dries down it lies close to the skin. Maybe it's a little generic for some, but for me it's a nice break from my usual Burberry Woman or Acqua Di Gioia.
