I waiting for Hiram green Moon Bloom to arrive! Supposedly a natural coconut tuberose 🥥 🌸 (your outtakes are hilarious!! You could be an actress or Disney voice 👑)
Wow!! I received moon bloom and slow dive yesterday and moon bloom is an amazing coconut tuberose!! I am definitely going to explore more from Hiram Green, have you tried it?
I ordered Vacation just yesterday! I don't have a single sun tan scent in my collection and I also have very fond memories of those tanning lotions from the 80's and 90's. Since I avoid it at all costs as an adult, I'm excited to at least smell like I get some sun 🌞 😃
Coconut is a top shelf scent profile for me too! I’ve seen Malibu Party in the Bay on Veronica’s channel and I’m on the hunt for this one. I mix my Coconut lime body lotion with Pacific Lime by Atelier Cologne and it’s divine! Utopia is already in the mail on it’s way to me. 🥰🥰 Hey Chris who doesn’t like a good smelling eyeball?! 🤣 It’s a dangerous hobby you got there! 😉
I’ve been loving coconut lately too as the weather is warming up in the Midwest ☀️ I have rirana coco nanas, city rthym Miami (incredible sillage and longevity), Bois classic paradise, house of oud keep glazed, v canto miserate and I just blind bought the newest one from thameen called blue heart. It has coconut as a note in it. It should be here sometime this week and I hope it’s as good as the notes look 🙂 I’ve been debating on those simone andreoli fragrances you mentioned. I’ve had small samples of them but they didn’t seem to last very long? Maybe I just didn’t have enough juice to overspray. They are really lovely though, especially leisure in paradise. I do own one from the brand called born from fire which is really nice in the cold.
I agree the SA are not powerhouses. But leisure I Paradise is so sweet…..I’m not sure I’d want it to be stronger….esp here it gets hot and really humid. I have a sample of Miami! I’ll try it tonight! Thank for reminding me. Some awesome ones you mention!
Fun!! Born and raised in Fort Worth, TX and graduated HS in the 80’s so I loved your references! One that has surprised me is Intense Tiare by Montale… was scared off thinking it would be too much and possibly screechy etc. but instead it’s creamy coconut and Tiare with slight pineapple banana vibe. I can’t really get anything done when I wear it because I’m just smelling my sleeves etc like every other minute! Also I love that it lasts and lasts! I love Kyse and will have to check out that one too! Big Love from Dallas❤️!
Love love looove Leisure in Paradise by Simone Andreoli, it´s my new signature. To me it´s mostly sweet pineapple and coconut in a smokey tobacco like background.
Well hello there!!! I see your name come up from my lovely scent twin Julija (scentsblings.ca). If you are a friend of Julija you are a friend of mine! 🥰😘Thank you for stopping by! And yes I forgot about the Stranger Things dishes! And phones….cars…….ahhh sigh. Good times! 🥰🙌
Great line-up, Chris! My favorite coconut milk scent is Moonlight in heaven by Kilian. Big hug to you and a huge bouquet of white peonies from my garden. They are now in full bloom and I can't stop smelling them.
Hello friend! Yes I ordered that one weeks ago! Should be showing up any moment (I already have the travel but needed the full bottle). 💕we just finished an amazing peony blooming week! 💕
Amen on all things Disney... I grew up in Anaheim, California, and would absolutely prefer the sunshine while sitting on Huntington Beach or Balboa Island as opposed to 3 hours in line for Small World. You're not a "curmudgeon" lol. I'd say you're completely normal. Btw, Dolce and Gabbana- Garden has a lovely coconut scent!! Have a wonderful summer! (Stay away from the mouse ears) 😉
Chris, your comments are always so insightful, however, you are about the last person on the planet that I would have ever guessed had a cupcake with Mickey Mouse ears on it! You are hilarious!
Hi Chris, I couldn’t have said it better myself about the vacation fragrance. Brings me back to my wonderful childhood and I just always want to have in my collection!!! Really want to try their lotion and sunscreen as well to layer!
I love coconut fragrances, they remind me of the sea🥥🥥. I’m so glad you mentioned Utopia again cos my Korloff Gold is way below half cos I had to overspray all the time🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️. I have a travel size of Coco Extreme and I find it extremely sweet😉😉. I absolutely love Cocobello from Heeley cos it’s a different type of coconut from the ones that I have🥥💚🌴. I also have Holidays and a travel size of Soleil Blanc🥥🥥. Awesome list as always👌👌. Stay gorgeous🥰🥰.
This video has me soooo ready for summer! Several of these I have never tried before, and I'm really looking forward to checking out CSP. My favorite tropical coconut fragrance is Hibiscus Palm by Aerin. I layer it with Waikiki Beach Coconut by Bath & Body Works. That combination lasts all day on my skin and its just dreamy.
I love Hibiscus Palm! That is going to be in my “Tropical Floral” video. And I’m pretty sure I have Waikiki Beach Coconut!!! Yay! Thank you for that. I’m sure it will be amazing! 🙌🥰❤️
You’re a nut 😄 (that’s a compliment). The shoot the duck comment at the end made me giggle 😁 I just checked my collection and realized I don’t have a single coconut fragrance. Perhaps it’s time to change that!
Hey lovely, you really should get your nose on Sienna Brume by Mihan Aromatics. It's a very refreshing coconut scent by a lovely niche Australian fragrance house. It's my absolute favourite vacation / summer fragrance. Everyone I show this fragrance to buys it instantly, but I never hear anyone else talk about it. Please give it a try if you can find it! xx (and the bottles are really expensive feeling - heavy with a magnetic cap etc)
Hello beautiful lady, I am definitely going to have to try some of your pics exclamation I don’t really have much coconut in my collection. Some that I have and I do like our dolce and Gabbana garden, dolce and Gabbana light blue sun, I know it’s really not coconut but it gives me that coconut And lime vibe is Tom Ford’s a eau d Soleil blanc, and my ride or die inexpensive is sol de Janeiro ; They smell So vacation like and so delicious! Coco cabana been my favorite! But the 62 and the 71 are also very nice for that summertime vibes in the sun. You have a great day
Yasssss you know I clicked on this so fast when I saw the coconut 👀🤤😍! So glad you ended up liking Radio Bombay as much as me! Summer time goodness! Arizona Bloom is another favorite of mine. Amazing video with great recommendations! ❤️
An interesting one for you to try is Arquiste Sydney Rock Pool. It’s a salty sea experience in a bottle. Coconut vibes without the overly suntan lotion hit.
Hey Leanne! You have great taste! I had that last year……it was super salty and musky on me. Unfortunately, No one around me enjoyed it when I wore it so I had to let it go but it was super unique I agree! And the bottle so pretty!💕🥰
Hi my beautiful friend! I didn't have any coconut fragrances last year, and now I have, like, FIVE!!! Awww, I love that your eye smells amazing! Coco alla Vaniglia is, hands down, the best coconut fragrance I have ever smelled, and I have you to thank for introducing me to the brand. I love this one so, so much. It's my July fragrance buy. THANK YOU! The Kayali to me smells quite like Holidays, and I can't wait to wear that! Yay for the 80s! We totally loved Stranger Things because it was so incredibly accurate in terms of how it looked! I wonder if Vacation smells like Holidays. (It's all about Holidays for me, I guess..) BLOOPERS JUST FOR MEEEEEE! I loved that. "Shoot the Duck?" Not familiar, but I can just see you at the roller rink! Those were such great times! THIS was a great time! I love how you love your coconut fragrances. And I love that you have occasion to wear them. We only get two hot days, and when I get the Kyse I'll have six coconut fragrances, so I'm covered. :p xoxoxo
A very good friend of mine gave me that “Mickey mouse” perfume fir my bday last yet and I just lost it! I’m a huge Disney fan….and a perfume fanatic. When she brought out that beautiful bag and the presentation, one of the most exciting gifts I’ve ever received ❤️
Anne. You are such an incredible gem. 🥰💕I want to meet your parents (and mom) so I can tell her/them what a great job they did with you. You are like the sweet baby sister I never had (stuck with 3 brothers)! 🥰💕❤️
@@ThePerfumeNest Oh my gosh Chrisss 🥹🤍🥹!! I feel the same about you!!! So funny, my brother is in your situation but swapped, with 3 sisters .. poor dude would love a brother 😅
@@ThePerfumeNest I came across it randomly while searching for something else. The entire line of Vacation products was on sale... it's online only though, not at the store.
❤️ The 80’s! Most of my happiest memories! Would play all day and return home when the street lights came on! GREAT video Chris! 💖 My favorites are Soleil Blanc and Eau de Soleil Blanc. I love coconut, but I’m super picky about it in fragrance. Definitely going to try some of your recommendations! ❤️🥥☀️
Oh my gosh yes! Or “be home in time for dinner!” Can you even imagine doing that now? I remember when my daughter used to play with a girl down the block. I would walk her or the mom was supposed to call or text me when she got there. Literally 10 houses down. And we live in a tucked away little neighborhood. Boy how times have changed. 🤦♀️
I must try the last one you mention, Vacation! I have one which seems a bit similar, called ERL Sunscreen by Comme des Garçons - it’s great but doesn’t last at all! Sunscreen, plastic pool toys and Lycra 😆 I just love it. Coconut can be tough for me but in the summer I love it! So many summer staples on your list. 💜
I don't have many coconut fragrances, but the two that I have are ones I really like. Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess Azur has that lovely Bronze Goddess base with an added aquatic note. My other one is DKNY Be Delicious Coconuts About Summer. That one is a stronger and sweeter coconut scent, but not as deep and ... well... "bronzed" as the other.
Hi my friend! I bought the BG Azur last fall but never opened it up until today! Yes! Gorgeous fresh citrusy aquatic opening but still settling into the classic BG base. It is so nice. I’m making my way through the samples. I’m blown away with your collection. Things I’ve never heard of before. Your taste is just beyond. I think I told you before…..you need a YY channel! 🥰🙌
Hello lovely lady! ♥ Looking gorge as usual! Where do I even start ?! 😍 I love ANYTHING coconut and you mentioned sooooo many loves here!!!!! I'm glad you also like Utopia as a sub for our beloved Korloff Gold; so far it's been the closest one to KG scent-wise that I could find. Bronze Goddess Oh Em Geeeeeee I can't live without it it's so so good!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Floral street! I couldn't agree more, such a light, beautiful scent! Malibu Party in the Bay is one of my favorites from Simone Andreoli and I also think it's the most unisex from their tropical line. Thank you so much for such a beautiful video and of course for the mention 🙌🙌🥰♥♥, glad to hear the Bum Bum cream helped you prolong Santal Complet's longevity; for me it's been a game changer; I wasn't entertaining the idea of repurchasing Santal Complet until I've tried layering it with this fabulous cream. PS: your bloopers are golden 😍😍😍
I absolutely agree….Pat has very clear cut lines what is “masculine” and “feminine” and he LOVED the Malibu!!! I think we will be battling over it this summer. 😉💕😂. Thanks for stopping by my dear! 💋
@@ThePerfumeNest OMG I Love it! Bought my first flanker back in 2011 or 2012 at Dillard's and it was thanks to the SA who was annoying as hell trying to convince me to try it 😂 and ever since I have it in my collection in one version or another because I don't know how many times it's been reformulated 😂. I lost the lid of my current bottle while filming a short video last year for my Hawaii Vlog; the bottle fell off my hands (thanks God it didn't break) but the lid fell all the way from floor 30 or so to ground and I couldn't find it 😫. Have you tried their shimmer oil? It's fantastic, it's kind of a dry oil and it helps a lot with longevity plus the shimmer is so beautiful and leaves a super subtle bronze shade 😉💕.
I was able to score Leisure in Paradise and I love the scent but I'm having trouble with my skin eating it(After chemically exfoliating my skin and lotion)😬 just need to shower in it, I guess🤣 I bought the travel Dolce & Gabbana Garden and I was surprised how much I like it😳
Bronze Goddess eau fraîche is nice. It’s soothing and then it transforms into an amazing skin scent. I also pair it with the body butter from Body Shop. ☺️
Omg, yes when you started talking about the memories of the 80’s it brought me all the way back, just loved it!! Man I miss life back then sometimes, I am 43 and can not wait for stranger things to come back, like you said so nostalgic, need to check that vacation fragrance!! Also, I absolutely love ordering from Arielle shoshana because I live in the VA alsoI get my order next day, it’s fabulous!!❤️
@@ThePerfumeNest me too!!! It’s in northern VA and I am in southern VA so it’s a little far from me, but def need to ale a day trip one day and just spend the day there!!
Hi Chris! I love your perfume/lotion combos. I just ordered the coconut body butter to wear with my Terracotta! I hope I got the old formula that you like. I read in the reviews that people are very upset with the new formula. Knowing you I’m sure you have your back up already! ❤️😘
Hello my dear! You know what is also good with Terracotta? It’s called SUN by BBW! Smells very similar! If I want to enhance the florals I wear SUn…..if I’m feeling more coconut I’ll go with my Body Shop coconut. I’ve got a few things to send you. 💕😉
Great ones..I do love coconut too I grew up in FL and moved back and warm beach days are my fave! I love wearing Bum bum cream layered w/ D&G The only one intense or La Nuit Tresor 🥥 🏖🤍
Great coconut 🥥 vid! I absolutely love your line-ups since they all still are unique in their own right. One of my fav coconut scents is Ylang in Gold. I’m sad that Gucci The Only One Intense didn’t make it here, I just bought it off Nordies Rack for a steal ($45 for a 50ml.)
And The Only One was ANoTHER perfume that I unfortunately wore / was testing on then went running on a blazing day. Oh boy! That was bad. I couldn’t wear it again. But I absolutely get the love for that. Gorgeous. I cannot wear stronger white floral /jasmines and go to gym or do sports outside. It’s the end of that perfume……😬
Great video Chris! You look absolutely beautiful! I am so sorry if you have mentioned this fragrance in another video (i guess you can’t search channels for specific topics on an Iphone). When you mentioned Fig, it made me wonder if you have tried Kalotinis Alluring Fig? It is the most fascinating due to how much it morphs from green/refreshing to creamy deliciousness. It is one of the most unique, scents in my collection and one of the few scents my husband ALWAYS compliments me on and nuzzles in close to smell it (even though you dont need to because it has impressive projection). He even has even sprayed himself with it a couple of times!
Hi Allison! You know I’ve had that perfume since December but never opened it until today and I read your comment! Wow…such a real woody twiggy fig!!!! Amazing you are right! 💕🥰 Thsnk you for reminding me to open that one up and give it a whirl! 🥰😘
I'm not a huge fan of Coconut but my ears very much pricked up when you talked about the 80s. I'm very much an 80's kid. . And i miss roller-skating! Stranger Things is brilliant. Anyway, i recently decided to take the plunge with Santal Complet. Love that one (despite not loving Sandalwood or Coconut. . Go figure 😅). I think it's the feeling and texture of it that is so addictive. Xxx
Yay to the 80s! 100 percent! I almost bought roller skates today but forgot that I actually had to come into work! 😂(thought I had the day off)…I will be getting a pair . So if you see me in an arm sling with gauze wrapped around my head on the next video…..you know what happened. 😂🛼
@@ThePerfumeNest ha ha. . I kinda want to get back into the skates just to see if i can. I always loved ice skating which i guess is the same movement and fun. . Just colder 🤣. I love Lucky! I agree it's underrated. I'm totally having a moment with Lily of the Valley and Lucky is definitely the most enjoyable. It's so perfectly clean, green and mouth wateringly refreshing for warm days! 💚
My favourites are Guerlain Coconut Fizz and Terracotta; Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess; SJP NYC Pure Crush; and all of the coconut ones by Comptoir Sud Pacifique - yes Coco Extreme is great
Lol!!!!😂😂I’ve wanted to try Coco Fizz for a year but it’s basically sold out everywhere and you are lucky you have the Yve Rocher. Not available here. I’d like a nice coconut water perfume. ❤️💕
@@ThePerfumeNest I Knoow! Coco Fizz is so hard to get even in Europe. My 2d best Coco water is from The Body Shop Coco mist, it's actually quite nice and it's my go to for the summer pool time with kids.😘
@@ThePerfumeNest I also loved this video! (I bought the Kyse fragrance on your recommendation and I love it!) I just know you have the best recommendations and I also love fresh, clean out of the shower fragrances!
Since you also like gourmand scents I definitely suggest you try nectar by Santa Eulalia! I love it! Amongst the heavier of my summer coconut scents but very yummy! Quite good performance too! And a classic I like so much is hibiscus palm by aerin. Not the strongest so maybe you decluttered it (or too floral?) but a firm favourite of mine.
I remember how badly I wanted to get my hands on Arizona Bloom when it first came out last summer.. but I guess it must do something weird on my skin because all of the wonderful notes were overwhelmed by a very strong smoky smell. And not like a cozy fireplace smell, more like burning garbage 😆 To make things worse, my little four-year-old niece was visiting and she literally told me I smelled dirty 🤣🤣 I still have the travel spray but I’ve never worn it again since. Can you blame me? Lol We took our kids to Disney World when they were young, they really didn’t seem to care if they were there or not, in fact they asked to go back to where we were staying to swim in the pool 😅 And we never went back to Disney in all the years we went to Florida! Nothing against it, we just weren’t that interested 🤷🏻♀️ So many great fragrances you mentioned in this video! You reminded me I had meant to try the bum-bum cream with the last of my sample of Santal complet to see if I can finally make friends with that fragrance 😉 As for me, I’m still reaching for alien goddess in the coconut department these days 🥰🥰 xo
@@ThePerfumeNest Intense Tiare or Holidays if we're talking perfume. But, I drool over the smell and taste of a blue coconut snow cone 🥵 in the Tx heat.
it's amazing, it's clean fresh coconut water and garden vibe rather than sweet coconut cream gourmand or suntan lotion - I get compliments every time I wear it and it goes fantastically well with white linen clothes
I should like coconut but it tends to go plastic on my skin..though the Bronze Goddess is a great summer fragrance! I do love Miami Glow..maybe because I don’t smell the coconut at all…
Me, too, starting to add clean and fresh and citrus fragrances. This past week was sooo hot where I live, but now this week is not going to be hot. Definitely having difficulty with my rotation because it's so up and down in temp where I live. But I don't have many coconut frags, so this is interesting. I hate fake-smelling coconut. Oh, and I'm not booing you about Disney- thinking of going to one of those Disney parks is like my version of hell, and I also hate Mickey Mouse. In general, kids stuff is not appealling to me- not a fan of marketing by infantilization, it's more of a turn-off to me.
Coconut sand???? Lol. You are so right! And I have Shunkoin but I couldn’t figure out what I was smelling. It smells like the dough my mom would use to make Christmas ornaments with. 😉💕
Bahahahaha I was playing this video as my boyfriend and I were getting ready for the day, we hear “I love sandalwood in basically all it’s forms except Santal 33,” our jaws simultaneously DROPPED and we started screamingg 😂😂😂😂 hahahah it’s all good, it’s all good, I know others get the pickle vibe too, but on Erik (it’s his signature scent) it’s outdoorsy, spicy, sandalwood heaven. He gets chased! People always compliment him on that fragrance 😝 Our reactions were just too funny I had to share 😅😅
@@ThePerfumeNest oh my gosh nooo not at all!! 😅 Your opinions and preferences are completely valid! That’s just one reason we all love you, you keep it 100! 🤍
I love Coconut fragrances. Coconut was my signature for years from about 2009-2015. Some of my coconut fragrances that you haven’t already mentioned are Coco Vanille Mancera Solar Bloom Clean Reserve What I Did On My Holidays 4160 Tuesdays Pacific Lime Atelier Cologne Datura Noir Serge Lutens Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue Sun I want to try Malibu Party at the bay! I like Tree Hut and Scent Worx Coconut Lime Lotion. I have Desert Essence Coconut and Tropical Coconut lotion as well as Yves Tocher Coconut Lotion. Not a fan of bath and body works. I had the body shop coconut body butter and it does smell amazing. Gonna have to repurchase! I love HEMPZ Banana lotion, great for tropical white floral fragrances.
Out of all the fragrances, what would you recommend if Lait de Coco is the only coconut fragrance I own? I love it so much but as you said, so soft and I want something longer lasting!
Aw thank you Donna!!! The best frangipani perfume ever was called Frangipani by Chantecaiile. It got discontinued. The next best I have found is Hibiscus Palm. I have a few other houses I want to check out. 💕
Hey my Dallas fragrance friend!!!!!🙌🙌🙌🙌Omg. What I wouldn’t do for an HEB here where I live. When I’m visiting family in Texas I literally make up reasons to go to HEB…..I even have pretty flip flops from there! 😂😂
Chris! Well, this is a fragrance note that I don’t have too much experience with, so, I’m ready for these! I’ve always been curious about Radio Bombay, love DS & Durga! Zafeer Oud Vanille is a favourite of mine and features coconut. ✌🏽🕺🏼♥️
Hello my lovely friend! I cannot believe Sir Richard doesn’t have coconut perfumes! We must change that ASAP! I think you would appreciate the artistry of Radio Bombay for sure! Then again, you might think it smells like oatmeal and your grandmas vitamins. 😂😂😂😂(I’ll never forget that). 🤣
Lol! I need some serious new storage….working on it. It’s too disorganized and in too many places to “show” on a video. And I get the enjoyment of those types of videos….it’s just hard to do. It might feel a little “showy” which is not how I want to come across. Maybe when I thin things out and get organized I can. 🥰
Hi Chris, love your videos! One question: what sunscreen do you use on your face? Your skin always looks great and you mentioned that you wear sunscreen everyday so I was wondering which one? Always on the hunt for great perfumes and great skincare ;-)
Hi Sylvian! Thank you! My absolute favorite sunscreen is pricey but perfect for my skin type….by Image Skincare called Prevention + (spf 50). It is perfect for dry skin. That is for everyday on my face. For sports or for my body (and face if being active) is La Roche Possay Anthelios 60 SPF. My daughter poor thing is so fair. Literally thinks of the sun and she will burn (like her dad). La Roche is the only sunscreen that will protect her. If I apply it properly, I will NOt get a burn even if I’m outside literally all day. And it isn’t chalky and doesn’t leave white film
I bought mine from two sites; one called 50ml in Spain. Took forever to get to states . The other I was very happy with…Excentia. Excellent response ….very happy with them.
You do like things a little unique (I’m blanking on the one you like with Metal in the title.). 😉❤️So just try Radio Bombay if you are out sniffing at stores. 🥰
It’s discontinued …sadly. If a perfume is discontinued and not available anymore I don’t include it in a video. Ppl find it too frustrating (I can see why). 😉❤️
Hello what would be your recommendation for a coconut perfume that smells very coconut nutty / caramel / sweet/ warm / pistachio … something long lasting.. please and thanks!!
I showed 15 here so if nothing in the video sounded like what your looking for then I don’t think I have it. 😂However this video is a year old and I need to do an updated version..
I watched the whole video, just figured I would ask if you had one that was the most sweet/ coco nutty/ out of all of them. With the details a said. Thanks
Hi! I have Utopia Vanilla Coco and it's very delishhhh! Uuuhhhh Leisure In Paradise sounds SO good, also Malibu hmm find to hard to decide which to get LOL 😛Where did you purchase it? 😊😎🌴🥥
Do you got one of those and how do you like it?;) I had a decand of Malibu Party in the Bay, but Leisure in Paradise sounds so good and Malibu wasnt such a great performer, im sooo close to blind buy Leisure in Paradise....🤪🤌😘
@@katharinanikol4206 I got LiP and I enjoy it a lot, very tropical! Malibu was too sharp to my nose, I prefer LiP a 1000 times :-) if you are able to sample it that would be better than blind buying cause it's expensive! 😋
@@MsChumelito uuuh ok, that sounds so good, and you are so right with getting a decand first, but now I know that I have to try LIP first, thank you a lot, MsChumelito🫶🧚♀️💫
