Released: Return to the Big Island
This begins sweet, a little woody, definitely the driftwood and maybe a hint of sand, which is a little “dusty.” If there was supposed to be a plate of malasadas nearby, though, that plate has long been cleaned of its occupants haha. I get no hint of coconut, custard or fried dough. This is mostly a very “clean” linen/candle type of smell. It’s not bad, just not what I was expecting! I personally find this better suited as a linen spray or something.
This is not a terribly strong scent overall, though it did last a good amount of time. I get a lot of the woody note and some of the fried dough, though I wish more of the creaminess and coconut came out.
This is super calming and tropical, like a mental vacation. It manages to smell like lightly coconutty doughnuts and fresh air at the same time. It also smells pretty natural. I love it!
