My favourite so far, along with Matin Câlin.
I’m still discovering CSP EDT, so wait and see!
It doesn’t smell like suntan, which makes me happy.
Nothing much to say, this is literally coconut milk, with discreet coconut shreds.
Perhaps a bit too soft… I feel like it’s lacking some oomph factor.
The fact that it fades away so quickly doesn’t help.
But since this is a sample I’m testing, I haven’t experienced yet how the sillage and longevity behave when sprayed.
Once I get the spray version (this is my favorite uncomplicated coconut scent so far), I’ll update my review ; ))))
Yura962 – :
Beautiful, summery scent – after about an hour and a half of wear, this seems very faint (contrary to the extreme in the name) so needs frequent reapplication
marat1976 – :
Intro: I am someone who does not enjoy summertime much. Bare with me, where I live, summers are often very hot and humid (over 110 Fahrenheit, 42 Celsius degrees).
The grass isn’t lush and green but often yellow in places by August and leaves dry out and fall down, although of course most stay green and stick to the trees, lol.
With that out of the way 😀 I decided I am going to enjoy this summer no matter what. 😀
Coco Extreme is my signature for the summer.
The top notes aren’t my favorite, they’re very similar to Yves Rocher’s coconut line and to me they smell plasticky. But as it progresses it becomes toasted coconut, the kind you find in desserts. It’s not sugary sweet, but milky and lovely.
So, here I am drinking coconut water and coconut milk, occasionally having a Bounty chocolate bar, wearing bright colors and hibiscus and orchid hair clips, smelling like coconut Godzilla and adding music to my summer playlist.
And guess what, this summer isn’t nearly as hot or humid as the last many were and this perfume is great to layer with coconut scented shampoos, fabric softener and cold pressed coconut oil/butter on your skin.
Now, where did I put that Pina Colada?
ETA:
Sillage is very low and so is longevity. Whenever I see such differences in perceiving both I am convinced it’s the same case as is with many toiletries and household products for different markets. They’re NOT the same.
I always ask my friends for opinions as we all enjoy fragrances and often comment on them, and all of them agreed that the scent is very very light and can only smell it when they get very close to me, as in a hug.
We have an ongoing joke that they know I went downstairs in our building as there is a scent trail behind me. No trail with Coco Extreme.
Still it’s lovely and I will use it up, just faster than I thought I would. 😀
Layering with Kuumba made Black Coconut helps. 🙂

I am a guy and I love CSP releases. They are very potent, very right on point. And this one makes no exception. It’s like eating coconut with all the freshness and the juice. You actually feel like hitting into the flesh of a delicious coconut.
I don’t wear this directly. It is too strong for me. I spray a mist and walk into it. Then after, I spray some shots of Set Sail St Barts or Nautica Voyage or Invictus Aqua.
I swear, Coco Extreme goes well with any summer aquatic fragrances for men. It is very rare that I layer fragrances, but with CSP releases, I feel that just add another layer of personality as long as you don’t overspray, it’s strong!
If you are a girl and you a reading this, consider adding an extra shot of coco to your boyfriend perfume. If he’s into aquatic scent, he might becomes hard not to bite if I follow my gf’s opinion about it correctly.
I also got to try 10 other samples from CSP and they dont disappoint. Just look at the notes, it will be exactly what you will get.
Thanks for reading my review!
indi888 – :
I think I get nose fatigue quite easily with this one, but regardless, it is the most natural smelling coconut I found. Just for refernce: Versace’s Black Crystal is to me very synthetic.
gevrich – :
To the people saying this is weak…
Holy hell… give your nose a break from perfume then come back and reassess.
I wear two sprays of this and it lasts very strongly all day. I was unlocking the front door at work the other day and my friend shouted ACROSS THE STREET ‘are you wearing coconut?’
So there’s that.
teodorfest – :
This is amazing. I bought this to wear during the summer when we do things outdoors. My boyfriend and I go to the beach and I love to wear this because it doesn’t have that fake tanning lotion coconut smell. The coconut and vanilla really come out on my skin from first spray to dry down and I love it. My only complaint is that it doesn’t last all day. I do have to refresh it after about 4 hours. My boyfriend loves this scent on me. Now I need to buy a bottle since I only purchased a sample bottle to see how well I liked it.
Orange_Fox – :
Heavenly, delectable and mood altering!
Lol…I had to take a swimsuit back as a return. The man handling the return asked me if I had worn it to the beach? I told him no and asked him why he would have asked that…his answer: “because it smells like coconuts, sunshine and somewhere tropical”. I laughed and assured him I had not worn the suit at the beach. Then he said:” Maybe that is your perfume I am smelling”?
Yup, he hit the nail on the head, I had on CoCo Extreme. He then said “That is the best fragrance I have ever smelled.”
This mix is juicy, vibrant and wildly real smelling. Uncomplicated and pure, it never fails to garner compliments when I wear it.
Silage is better than average. Last for hours and hours.
Such a simple, lovely scent!♥
WCHohjard – :
Creamy milky sweet coconut. It’s a very good true coconut with no floral or fruit notes to interfere. I thought however that “extreme” meant this was going to be very strong but it’s an EDT with so so silage. Here’s hoping for decent longevity!
snakedor – :
The description written on the official website of Comptoir Sud Pacifique, summarizes it all:
“Intensity and smoothness of an extreme coconut fragrance, sun tan lotion accents in which the pulpy, powdery coconut is wrapped with captivating creamy notes that conjure up the wonderful image of a sunny beach.
Top note: Vanille flower, Coconut pulp.
Heart note: Tonka bean, Hotmilk mousse, Coconut powder.
Base note: Candy sugar, Coconut, Vanilla from Madagascar.”
Quote ended.
sveta_k – :
Sugary almonds flavor on coconut kisses.
This fragrance is superbly enchanting, although it smells sort of like coconut milk pudding, or probably some cake, but it’s just mesmerizing.
Coconut is kept at minimal as dozes of vanilla, milk, and sugar with almond coated sugars are conquering the essence. This is gourmand in the 1st degree and truly it’s not a coconut based fragrance as i want it to be, but this could be from the coconut collection for coconut gourmand lovers. The sugar is not cloying, and the vanilla is not overly exposed, just blended quite good and balanced.
sokolova22001 – :
Last Summer I was left very disappointed in this. I was expecting to get a huge pure white coconut power hit…but was so disappointed in the small projection. This year I have been wearing it layered with Body Fantasies coconut fantasy, and have been getting crazy compliments from people! My hubby, who usually doesn’t mention my perfumes said I smelled like a tropical beach.
I will admit this is one I have to spray on my clothes to last, but that way I get lovely wiffs of this beauty all day. To me this is a gorgeous refreshing pure coconut cocktail straight out of the shell with umbrella and all…highly addictive!
oronia – :
This is a lovely coconut scent. It smells exactly like Bath and Body Works Exotic Coconut EDT. I wore that scent for years before they discontinued it. Unfortunately, Coco Extreme is much more expensive in comparison. It does have a synthetic smell, but it synthetically smells natural (if that makes any sense). This is not your sweet dessert type of coconut. This is what a brown-shelled ripened coconut cracked open would smell like. It has great lasting power and layers with other frags wonderfully. If you are a true lover of coconut and want just a true coconut scent without the added frills of florals or other types of notes that smother its essence, try this out.
black_wolf.68 – :
I tried this layered with something floral because on my skin, it just smells too foody, just like coconut essence.
Layered with Paul Smith Rose it was beautiful but wearing it on its own became unbearably sickly.
the alon – :
I got a small sample spray of this from Surrender to Chance. Based on the reviews here I was certain I’d love it & it would be the perfect year-round perfume for south Florida. Alas, my search for a perfect coconut continues.
This has a nice, comforting, warm vanilla scent that stays close to the skin. The scent was completely linear on me. There is a creamy, milky note that is quite pleasant. Perhaps there is the faintest hint of coconut, but this is NOT the pure coconut Hawaiian Tropic scent I was going for. I’m so glad I didn’t get a full bottle. This would be a nice body or room spray, but I have too many other fragrances that I love to put this one in the rotation.
yesman1991 – :
Opens with a realistic coconut water-type note and dries down sweeter, milkier, more plasticky. The name is appropriate, coconut lovers only. I feel like the vanilla and almond is quite subdued, they are backup singers turned way down in the mix and coconut is the crooning diva. I noticed that the more you disperse the fragrance, the more the other notes than coconut come out, so this one is a different animal depending on if you spray or dab.
alenochekk – :
This is wonderful.
I just got it yesterday and I am in love.
The coconut is made creamier by the tonka bean and vanilla notes and it is just so cozy to wear on a cold day.
I did not grow up associating coconut with summer and so the soft, cozy, creamy coconut feels like a scent that is perfectly comfortable during the winter months.
I like it much better than either the Yves Rocher or The Body Shop coconut scents, the former is too fleeting and the latter is too raw for me.
Coco Extreme lasts very well even on my middle aged, dry skin, I would guess around 8 to 9 hours in total, and on fabric it lasts much longer.
I am unable to identify the almond note but am pretty sure it must be part of the coziness of this fragrance.
A big thank you to all the reviewers who have loved this fragrance and gave me the courage to try it.
jmo507Negeltzex – :
I really like it. Coconut, but not to sweet. I wish would be a bit stronger. It lasts quite some time, but its presence is really subtle. Close to skin. Nice for summer.
Ladcaluagma – :
This was a blind buy and I was disappointed. This one ended up being used as a room spray unfortunately and then I think I ended up giving it away with a few other perfumes that didn’t quite make the cut (at least I had happy work colleagues!) It was too synthetic smelling and overpowering. I wonder is the Vanille Passion is nicer.
Petlia777 – :
Milky, synthetic something. If the vanilla and almond would open up at all, it might help. Otherwise it will have to be layered. I wore this last night and it had not improved by this morning. Stick with Lavanila version.
MARKANT – :
smells great but I have a victorias secret splash that smells almost exactly on me
3bounceborul – :
Yummy-yummy sweeeet coconut scent.For me it is not natural couconut, but really sweatened vanilla coconut. I adore it, it makes me smile 🙂 Unfortunately I does not last long.
maxcrow24 – :
I bought this blind because I love coconut in just about every form. It does not disappoint, I am currently sick with a head cold so my nose isn’t the best. As a result I wouldn’t call this perfume *strong* (but will update if that changes as my head clears). But it is pure, straight up unprocessed coconut. Not the sweet dried baking kind, or the fake sort of smell that’s in everything. This is fresh coconuts split open on the sand. Milky and natural and delicious. It doesn’t smell like candy, it doesn’t smell like sunscreen. It’s almost a back of the mind scent. Most of the time today I just found myself thinking how pleasant the air smelled, and then I’d catch a wiff and realize it was me.
If you love coconut, try this.
drumqq – :
Yummmmmy yummmmmmmmy yummy. Want to marinate in it.
sfotich – :
Let me start off by saying that I am a complete idiot. I blind bought this thinking coco as in cocoa. I hate coconut lol! To me this is the closest to coconut that you can get but I just dont like what my skin does to coconut. Makes it smell like burnt plastic or a tanning Kardashian
adax37 – :
*dreamy sigh* THIS is the coconut I’ve been searching so hard for all summer! And of course now that summer is nearly over, I find “the one.” Oh well. The only reason I waited so long to try this is because CSP’s tend to be overly sweet, with a strong, heavy vanilla note that never works on me, especially in the heat. However, after trying, and failing, with a number of much loved coconut suggestions, I decided “WTH do I have to lose?”
Now I’m kicking myself for waiting so long to buy this!
This is coconut, coconut, coconut. I don’t care that there are other notes listed. This is plain ol’ coconut. Nothing synthetic or sun tan like or sun block like. Just as said in the reviews below, Pure, Fresh, Milky Coconut. Did I mention the coconut?
Seriously, if you’re looking for a solo coconut perfume that works year round, look no further. This will be great for layering as well. Longevity is about 10 hours and projection is actually strong to moderate. It’s amazing!
I spray this in my hair every single day. My husband and kids always comment on how good I smell.
Also, side note, this smells identical, and makes coconut magic, when worn with OGX Coconut Hibiscus lotion.
димас – :
Pure Coconut…Coco Extrême, or “Extreme Coconut” is a fragrance (like many in the Comptoir Sud Pacifique line) which is true to it’s name.
Now, coconut is the main player here. It’s in the name, it’s in the composition, it’s loud and it’s “extreme”.
What I get from this is the many facets of coconut throughout this perfume. The fresh aspects, like the juice, the pulp and the flesh… and the dry aspects; the powdered coconut, the coconut butter, the cream. It’s like all of these aspects rolled into one. I also get the aroma of coconut biscuits. The ones made with fresh butter and lots of sugar. This is definitely a delicious perfume, a great example of a “gourmand” scent.
Overall though, Coco Extrême can be one-dimensional. It’s all about the coconut from start to finish. I think that if you like that sort of thing (i.e. you are someone who enjoys the smell of coconut and has a craving for a purely coconut smell), then look no further, as this is the one. If you are looking for something that is more than just coconut, or dislike the note in general, then perhaps it would be best to look elsewhere.
As for me, I like it! Although I wouldn’t reach for it everyday. Again I would have to be “in the mood” to wear something like this, or smell like this all the time. I will say this though, it did bring a smile to my face, and if a perfume can make me happy like that, then it isn’t such a bad perfume after all…

The opening will immediately feel the coconut (but very original, pure coconut) fresh, relaxing !! The evolution of this fragrance is slow .. and it needs time to prove altogether. In the “middle notes” becomes softer and slightly ‘dusty’ while remaining cool, thanks to the almond and tonka bean … milk is imposed along with coconut, giving ‘creaminess’ to the composition! About me lasts a long time (8-12 hours) the sillage is moderate .. Overall a good scent, definitely summer, which gives freshness and sweetness.
Sillage: 6.5/10
Longevity: 8/10
Scent: 7/10
Overall: 7/10
liana5 – :
Aaaahhhh,where do i start? Well everybody who has smelled this fragrance simply loves it!!! I dont care about a whiny reviews complaining about it because in the end this is pure sweet coconuts with hints of vanilla that is just remarkable! so if you like sweet scents and coconut I suggest you try it out it’s one of the purest creamiest coconut I’ve ever smelled I love it and by the way you can see my avatar I am a man and I love this scent, on me!!!!!
Chibugander – :
The initial blast of synthetic sour alcohol nearly burned my nasal membrane off. The scent turns into a pseudo-green chemical coconut before mellowing down. It’s surprisingly difficult to find a coconut fragrance that depicts the nutty, delicious creamy toasted scent of coconuts (similar to the scent of extra virgin coconut oil) in the market, and Coco Extreme is no exception.
NutOwewshouts – :
Once it dries down the synthetic feel is gone as the almond and milk notes make their emergence. Beautifully done and very long lasting. I think I sprayed too much as it has been cloying over the last half hour or so but I still love it. Not really unisex IMO as I doubt that I could ever wear this outdoors and be comfortable. I do love Lavanila Laboratories Vanilla Coconut a bit more. Maybe because it does have a light woody base? All in all I would love for my woman to wear this but not myself.
clubbicle – :
Just got it today and tryed it on my wrist.
When spraying a lovely coconut smell arised, but it turned quickly into some strange – a bit synthetic smell, on my skin ??
After about ½ hour I begin to smell the coconut again, maybe I “damaged” my nose when sniffing too hard at first, will try it again tomorrow.
Perhaps I need more experience with this ?
Edit:
Yes after this – for me – strange syntethic-albeit short periode, it change to this beautifull coconut smell again, and this is the staying power= really nice
Anybody experienced the same ??
arv2010 – :
My bottle just arrived,and my first impression of this is really good,,imagine a coconut split in half with the milk still in the shell,,smells delicious.. if you live in the UK, there’s a company selling 100ml bottles of this for £26,on amazon,half the price compared to eBay’s prices, grab a bottle before they’re all gone.
Update,, this is powerfull stuff, I can still smell it on me, and it’s the next morning. I definitely get the almond and vanilla smell that people are talking about, and it’s very welcomed, as I went a bit heavy on my first testing of this frag, and it was starting to wear me out,,I wish all coconut frags were this powerful, I’ll go lighter next time.. this stuff is amazing..layer with tommy bahama set sail saint barts for a really decent imitation of creed virgin island water..9 outta 10..
27061993 – :
Please forgive me for the harshness of my review, this evoked a sudden and intense emotion – instant dislike! I was looking for a light hearted summery coconut scent. What I got was a tidal wave of sweetness (it reminded me a bit of the sweetness in Pink Sugar), plus burnt vanilla, and a synthetic/cheap car air freshener weak attempt at coconut. It was headache inducing and a scrubber.
I don’t know if it would have mellowed or bloomed with time, it was too much and I only lasted 10 minutes with it.
IMO St. Tropez Dispenser is much better. If you want the ultimate of coconut perfumes (but hideously expensive) then go for Shunkoin, it’s a classy/elegant coconut that is simply amazing.
nerko-volg – :
I think this is THE holy grail of solinote coconut perfumes. It’s almost sacred to me. I don’t have much to add to what other reviewers have said, except to say, yes, it’s ridiculously potent and unforgiving coconut bliss.
To answer Sherapop’s query below, I prefer to wear this in addition to my sunscreen in order to boost the coconut facet. Does my sunscreen really need the boost? Of course it does. I want my coconut to erode the sand dunes with its strength, and make the seagulls spiral out of the sky.
Jeopollumutle – :
I wanted an overpowering coconut fragrance and Coco Extreme is it. A recent and unexpected coconut lust led to a very happy quest of testing many perfumes advertising the note. The search for a perfect perfume coconut, for its iconic fatty milkiness, and as featured in retro suntan lotions, like Hawaiian Tropic, is now over, thanks to Coco Extreme — and, especially, thanks to the many Fragranticans who recommended Comptoir Sud Pacifique for the house’s especially faithful, rich, delicious, powerful, and long-lasting coconut note.
Underneath a massive milky coconut is a sweet and warm vanilla and a very noticeable almond, exactly like old-fashioned Good Humor Toasted Almond ice cream bars. And there’s not much else here. Because of Coco Extreme’s relative simplicity, I layered it with the tropical fruity and floral beauty Estee Lauder Brasil Dream, of which I thought the coconut was sadly underemphasized. And using the two I am presently in tropical beach olfactory bliss.
The Too Long; Didn’t Read version is this: If you are cuckoo for coconuts, get CSP Coco Extreme.
Ваэрон – :
Calling this perfume would be the same as praising baby shampoo for it’s scent. Banal, yet soothing. It satisfies my inner child, that had anything “coconut” only on special occasions. Ok, I obsessed over it for a few days, now I’m over, and for good this time.
aleksei_krasilni – :
When I was a teenager in the 70’s, loved the super mega trendy Hawaiian Tropic Tanning Oil. When I went to the beach anointed myself with it and smelled coconut for the rest of the day. For the good and the evil.
Use the Hawaiian was a proof that you were a cool person. You were distinguished with many stars in the teenagers’ beach universe.
Good times of surf, sunset at the sand and first loves. Not always successful.
I’m sure nothing has changed except me. Thanks God.
A bell rang in my mind when I saw a promotion of this perfume (50 ml for $ $12,00). May it have the same smell? In fact, my intuition said it would be a “yes”.
I was not wrong: coconut greasy is the best expression to define the scent of this fragrance.
I’m no longer a teenager for a long time and I don’t think today want to walk down the street wearing this perfume. But on any given laziness Sunday at home, it’s a lot of fun.
Who knows on the beach, to give an air of Hawaiian Tropic into my insipid and politically correct sunscreen factor 60. One day I’m going to try.
Update: I read Sherapop’s now. Glad to see someone else remembered the Hawaiian.
nikolay0288 – :
this one reminds me of BBW exotic coconut, minus the “kaka” dry-down… this one is just a pure, milky, creamy, coconut lovers dream! i must go… will be laying on my couch, nose to my wrist, imagining sun and sand… please leave a message 😛
digdryday – :
This is a coconut bomb, plain and simple. No need to ramble on and on about any other barely detectable notes because you will have to be Sherlock Holmes to find them past the coconut. Yes, there is a dose of vanilla of course as it is CSP but this is all about the coconut. This is full blown Tarzan yodeling monkeys swinging from the vines coconut. Or maybe Panama City Beach, I’m not sure. Part of me is thinking far away remote island while the other is thinking bad perm and twice a day at the tanning parlor and tropical wine cooler. I am not quite sure what to think of this but all I know is that it is not for me. It is in the Ebay box.
Creditloanusa – :
Ok ok…I finally get one bottle of this, in sale. What can I say? I get what the name promises: coconut, sweet coconut. The fragrance is ok, very summery and nice, my only complain is that you really do not need to spend lots of money to get this kind of parfum, there are nice coconut scents chaeper and similar.
I have to add that this one has a very good stayng power.
Neadekvatenby – :
No one can say that I was not warned! With a name like Coco Extrême, on a perfume from the house of Comptoir Sud Pacifique, I could have easily predicted that this would be a suntan lotion facsimile scent–and it is!
Especially in the opening minutes, this creation smacks undeniably of Hawaiian Tropic suntan lotion: coconut in a creamy and somewhat overwhelming concoction designed to withstand wind and seawater, sand and sweat! In this case, the scent tones down quite a bit and becomes less sweet and coconuty after several minutes. By the drydown there even seems to be a touch of woodiness.
Not a subtle perfume, but it will match your suntan lotion, so that’s a virtue, I suppose. Plus sometimes it’s nice to bring back the memories of a vacation when the prospects for one are rather remote–say in the middle of winter, with months to go before summertime.
On the other hand, why not just slab on some sunscreen?

I decided to buy this the other day and I’m very surprised that I did. I had my heart set on Amour De Cacao (which I still may get when Fall comes)…but Coco Extreme was incredible on my skin. I do like the smell and taste of coconut, but wasn’t quite sure I wanted to smell like one. This is not what I expected at all. Not as sweet as the other Comptoir offerings. This is a sophisticated, slightly mysterious coconut…if a coconut can be at all attributed to those qualities. I picture a Tahitian beauty with dark eyes and a deep, smouldering secret. Haha, well, you can just chalk that up to my overly dramatic imagination.
Sometimes citrus scents evaporate on me in the warm weather. I know I’m going to love wearing this in the summer when something a bit heavier is called for but not too cloying. Thoroughly yum and sexy scent!
Kpu – :
This is really very very much like Yves Rochers Coconut.
den125 – :
I am quite keen on coconut, and I’ve gotta say, this is really very good. Nice and authentic. I do slightly sense milk and almonds alongside this lightly sweetened freshly shaved coconut. It is creamy, soft, pretty, tropical – but without the unwelcome addition of other attention stealing tropical fruits or flowers. Pure coconut. It shares a likeness with YR Coco Malaisie, but is also different. It is more present, thicker, and tropical. YRs coconut is cleaner and translucent, and I don’t want to eat it. However, Coco Extreme does not truly boast the sweetness of cakes, cookies, or candies in my opinion. It is a sweetness you’d find in nature. It’s gentle. It’s pleasant. I could wear it anytime. Solid A for this coconut.

smells like a fresh coconut. its very basic. nothing special. but if you want a coconut thats fresh and summery, this could be the one.
insider1 – :
Quite a heavy coconut smell, not something sophisticated as you would expect from its posh name and packaging. I absolutely love anything coconut-y but this was just missing something to transform it from edible/yummy to haute parfumerie. The truth is that every time I wore this I had a lot of compliments, but mainly because it was so creamy and coconuty that everyone noticed! I also was asked a lot if I was wearing suntan oil! All in all, a true coconut smell, not something elegant or something that feels/smells expensive
monamix – :
While initially hitting the skin with a slightly harsh snap, it settles in beautifully. I get compliments about “how good I smell” every time I wear it. Light, summer scent perfect for the beach, or for the winter, when you wish it was summer at the beach.
Virutexsrud – :
I absolutely love coconut smells. I was looking for a similar small to Profumi Forte Apuani and THIS IS NOT IT. I sprayed it on about 20 minutes ago and i am still nauseous. It overly done. Coconut smells synthetic and toasted, almond scent is faint and just adds to the nausea. It is a blind buy that I regret but one of my employees loved it so my error is their gain.
kosmos.tar – :
This was a blind buy for me, and I really regret it.
I was so sure I would love it because all the notes mentioned are my absolute favorites and the reviews seemed so positive.
This is not an oriental. Its extremely sweet and heavy and quite frankly I don’t get much of any of the notes listed. Sure there’s a little coconut but it’s not that nutty exotic smell that’s so unique. Instead its a very sugary synthetic coconut with tons of banana and pina colada.
I also found there wasn’t anything “intense” about it, for the first few seconds the sticky sweetness hits you like a ton of bricks and then ‘poof’ it just disappears leaving the faintest moldy/rancid tinge behind that sticks close to the skin. No lasting power to speak of.
This is as far away from being a unisex fragrance as I have ever smelt too, its waayy too cloying and sweet for that.
In sum, this smells like ancient suntan lotion.
Maybe this is just a fail with my skin but I’m still so very very disappointed.
Better luck to the rest of you!!
v7777 – :
Wow…this is one heavy sweet smelling coconut.
Thick and creamy..I really dont know if it would be suitable for summer though, I honestly think it could be headache enducing.
Very long lasting and strong for an eau de toilete.
On the strength of the reviews I ordered from the usa, and everyone was spot on with their reviews…exactly what I was expecting.
hosevushetaa94864 – :
The perfect coconut perfume.sweet ground coconut ,sugared cream,light almond and a thin vanilla veil.not powdery and nothing to complicate it.just pure coconut goodness.i have found my coconut perfection in a bottle.
HeadCrash – :
This is a more expensive and a more “yummy” version of Yves Rocher’s Noix de coco. Or so I thought at first .. but I must admit, although I’ve been loving the YR one, this has so much more to it, it’ so so so special. If you ever had those Raffaello coconut truffles, imagine eating these on a sandy beach, while putting the coconut scented sun lotion on! That’s the smell you’ll get if you spray this. I personally love smelling like suntan lotion, coconut and summery things like that. This is a true coconut, but not the plain one, but a very gourmandy, tasty, coconut, with a slight vanilla note to it. I can smell some almonds too, which to me often comes from Tonka in perfumes.
Pretty long lasting, I must admit that on my weird skin it lasts for more than 8 hours, I even smell it on my hair/clothes several days after applying it. Draws compliments and it is pleasant for wearing. Don’t put too much, a little goes a long way. Recommendation!
Dimitradze80 – :
On me this is pretty much just coconuts, and it lasts and lasts! I sprayed my arm 8 hours ago and it’s still there.
vanille coco- yellow or white cake with coconut shavings
coco extreme- coconuts, coconuts, and coconuts.. oh and a little vanilla I guess. & it is buttery like mentioned.
_aaa_ – :
Coco Extreme is the only coconut scent I’ve encountered that does not have any fruit or pineapple which turns the whole thing into a Pina Colada or a icky sweet concoction. Simply pure, unsweetened coconut, nutty almonds with a little vanilla. A very easy to wear and comfortable scent.
This and CSP’s Aloha Tiare and Eau De Naphe used to be my “go to” fragrances in the summer. Eventually summer will arrive this year and I’ll probably use them again on occasion. I’m not such a coconut fiend anymore and I’ve discovered there are other fragrances that work well in the warmer months.
charluha – :
What a disappointment! I was hoping that this would be a natural smelling, not-sugary coconut for my boyfriend and I to wear. This couldn’t be farther from what I was wanting. The almond is way too dominant, giving it an almost butter-like scent. Now I like butter on my bread, not my fragrances.
