Beaver Moon: Coconut Cream & Guava

Coconut Cream & Guava.

This duet is mostly about the coconut cream throughout wear. The guava is most noticeable during the wet phase of the scent and for an hour or so afterward, bright pink and pairing perfectly with the coconut cream. Sadly, the guava does not stick around on me and it becomes all about the coconut cream after a while. The coconut cream is not buttery whatsoever and is somewhat reminiscent of the coconut pulp found in Son of biggerCritter.

 

I'm generally not big on coconut scents, but this is one of the better ones that I have tried. I don't think I need a full bottle of it, but I think I'll keep my decant around to try layering with its moon (which I will be ordering in my next order)!

Same experience as @doomsday_disco. Really yummy juicy guava during the wet phase but it eventually concedes to the coconut cream. Which is pretty but ideally if I'm going to FS, I want it in equal measure for the whole wear.

I think my experience was a bit more balanced than either of the above folks. In the bottle and definitely when first applied the guava comes out in full force. As it warmed up, it got even stronger, almost to the point of it being like a Guava Single Note. After drydown, it settled down a bit, but in a way where it came into balance with, instead of dominating, the coconut cream. The coconut in this scent is delicate and soft- this is not overtly food-y, not does it veer into suntan lotion territory, nor is it the "cool" coconut note of, say, Obatala. Saying it's a coconut *cream* is actually very accurate as it really gets to the vibe of it in the blend.

In all: a low throw, close-to-the-skin scent, gently tropical without being "HI I'M FRUIT SALAD", this is a delicate daytime scent perfect for warm weather (or dreaming of the same). I anticipate getting a lot of wear out of this over the summer! 🥥❤️
