Coco Extreme by Comptoir Sud Pacifique, 2006

On the day that I sampled Coco Extreme, I had Vanille Extreme on my other hand. It was an interesting contest between these two "Extremes", and I have to say that Vanille was the more entertaining and wearable. Coco certainly shares that ability to slake that thirst for freshness, but it just becomes a little too much after only a couple of hours. It is by no means cloying, but I clearly possess insufficient insulin to counteract the prodigious sweetness. Better fragrance options exist elsewhere in the considerable CSP hit parade.

Funny notes. Definitely smells like milked coconut cream. Do you like Pina Coladas?

I love this one too...on me it starts off coconut, then turns into the most wonderful creme caramel sprinkled with a dusting of almond. It lsts forever, and by that I mean ALL DAY.

I'm wearing it in the middle of winter, and it's getting me through the coldest, darkest days, reminding me that yes, there are sunny beach days ahead, and this is what they'll smell like.

This is a great scent if you are looking for something COCONUTTY. It is that, and not much else. That is what I was looking for when I purchased it, so I am happy, but I do not pick up much of the "island flowers". It is a great scent for summer, and has a very tropical beachy feel to it. Just spritzing this I am reminded of warm summer days on the beach, and tropical getaways. Doesn't really seem appropriate for winter (althought it may give you a pick me up on a cold dreary day). Quite pleasant and easy to like. Perfect for the coconut lover.

Dude, i thought this was a mans cologne,cuz im rockin it & my only complaint is the longevity!

This is my favorite fragrance in the whole wide world besides Bath and Body Works Ile de Tahiti Fei Banana! When I buy a scent that's named after a coconut, I want it to smell like coconut! This does, meaning it doesn't smell like flowers or anything else added. Just pure coconut. It's cool because the warmer you get outside, the more the coconut wafts up to your nose. It doesn't give me a headache and it's really soft. Love it!
