   My least favorite fragrance of the VS coconut line. Most of the time I smell just the coconut’s “chemical” like stale coconut oil on my skin blending in with the fig scent. Very unattractive smell, like something has gone bad (maybe I just got a bad bottle).
   But it just sat on top of my skin, the unpleasant scent did not go away (even though the fig scent seemed to get more dominant in the drying down process, but it still could not completely get rid of the other “bad vibe” from the “chemical” coconut scent.
   The funny thing is that after I washed my hands, the scent became true to what it supposed to smell like to begin with. I probably just washed off the “layer” of chemical and let the true scents do their work. But that would be a weird way to wear this fragrance for me (spray myself first and then take a shower?). It did have a long lasting time though.
   Overall it is still too “green” of a fragrance for me to truly enjoy it although I do like fig scent in some fragrances, just NOT in this one with this kind of odd coconut smell combined.

   Nude Coconut Fig is a rich, cool-weather fragrance. Like others have pointed out, it’s basically a higher-quality duplicate of Bath & Body Works Brown Sugar and Fig. VS and BB&W are owned by the same firm. Once in a while you might expect they are going to come up with a dupe or near-dupe based on the ingredients purchased for fragrance production, or maybe owning the rights. That’s just a guess. And to me, it’s not really something to discredit a fragrance.
   This isn’t a skin-scent at all. I have to disagree with the “Nude” part of its name. There’s nothing bare or scaled-back about it. In fact, it’s a bit overwhelming to me. It’s so rich and sweet — in a sophisticated, feminine way. The fig definitely is more pronounced than coconut, although I’ve heard that fig alone can smell similar to coconut. This has about as much coconut as Brown Sugar and Fig, which is “maybe there if you look hard enough, really go looking for it, or interpret it that way.” It coconut wasn’t part of the name, I wouldn’t have thought it was a note.
   Sillage can be explosive and longevity is impressive. Even if you think this is a skin-scent, please be careful.
   Now, in its own right, even without the coconut being a star, it’s a great fragrance. Deep, very feminine, and reminds me of a confident yet warm-hearted woman.
   I think this fragrance just didn’t work for me or my chemistry. It was too loud for me, even with a spray or two. It kind of just sat on top of my skin and didn’t really meld with me. But it’s a goodie anyway.

   Very soft and unintrusive. After 1st few minutes and into dry down, reminds alot of a low intensity L’Instant.
   I wanted something bolder but forgot about the “nude” part.
   Just a nice smelling skin scent.
   Update: Right about the 1 hour mark, I start getting whiffs of Crayola crayon from this one. Hangs around for awhile then drifts into a wonderful but short lived sweet amber dry down before it disappears completely.

   This is indeed similar to BBW Brown Sugar & Fig, but shockingly I find it less complex. It is beautiful but simpiler. The fig is less pronounced and it is just a smidge less sweet. The coconut is warm and custardy, like there is a milk or sweet cream note that isn’t listed.
   Edit: Just had to add that this one gets compliments!! My perfume picky friend said “What are you wearing today? It smells so warm!!”
