Tropical niche scents ?

post #1 of 11
Thread Starter 
I want to add a tropical scent to my summer collection......something along the lines of Virgin Island Water,........maybe with a little more longevity and less coconut. What niche house has something I can sample ?

I found Tommy Bahama Set Sail St Barts to be VIW without the heavy coconut. Dunno about the longevity. Not exactly niche, but pour it into a decant and you're good to go.

I like Bond No 9 Fire Island for the beach scent and Bond No 9 Coney Island for the Tropical Drink scent

I also thought of MPG Bahiana right away. Fun but also very much a thoughtfully composed frag with dimension to it.

Thommy Bahama Very Cool, it is like a mojito.

Virgin Island Water if your skin gets longevity on it, many people are different
Fire Island by Bond No. 9 - beach scent with no coconut that smell like tanned oiled skin. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2SGnav3UJs
Coney Island by Bond No. 9 - tropical fruity boozy edible scent
Comptoir Sud Pacifique Motu Aqua - reminscent of the beach as whole including the hot sand, ocean freeze etc.

Other than that not many spring to mind. Tommy Bahama is nice but longevity is horrible.
