Comme Un Gant

That nostalgic feeling when you're a teenager again, and driving home from the beach where you spent the day playing volleyball and swimming. The car is playing Red Hot Chilli Peppers, and it's one of the last years when no one’s hiding their phone yet, just staring out the window. The smell of snacks and biscuits fills the car while you enjoy the smell of sunscreen evaporating from your overheated skin. Then there’s the unmistakable scent of a car’s interior warmed by the sun: slightly powdery, faintly synthetic, almost plastic-like. Strangely enough, the coconut and vetiver transform this familiar scent into something unexpectedly pleasant, making it seem more like an indispensable part of the memory.

What a beauty! I’m currently loving everything with sandalwood, especially this one... maybe because It includes most of my favourite notes as well. Milky sandalwood perfectly complemented by spicy cardamom, while coconut and vanilla add a soft, sweet touch. A fresh, creamy scent that brings you away to tropical escapes yet feels like home—cozy, familiar, and truly your own. Fits like a glove! The longevity and projection on my skin are more than satisfying. Definitely gets a place of honor in my collection.

This is the most realistic coconut fragrance I've ever come across. It's not synthetic or overly sweet in the slightest, it smells exactly like a fresh, real coconut.

On my skin, the milky (lactonic), woody, vanilla, coconut, and cardamon notes really shine through, which I am a big fan of. Reminds me of a sweet, iced chai latte or Bigelow Tea’s Toasted Coconut Almond Bark Black Tea when brewed. I don’t really pick up on the powdery notes, I’ve paired it with a floral/earthy body butter (Witch Baby’s “Graveyard”) which I feel emphasizes the woody notes a little more, and it does not disappoint. Not too overpowering, the scent lingers close to the body but leaves a pleasant trail in your wake. At a distance, the vanilla and coconut are the most prominent, but when close up the spiciness becomes evident. This is a lovely perfume. Sweet but not too feminine. It has definitely grown on me since my first spray.

I really like this one. It does smell slightly synthetic to me. The vanilla and coconut leave a creamy drydown. Softly reminding of whipped cream or raffaelo. 🥥 As a cardamom lover i have been disappointed though, it could be stronger for me (or my skin is eating it idk). Warm and a little spicy, all in all a good fall fragrance! 🍂
