GourmandWhat does Sun-Kissed Island smell like?
Its sillage is rated strong, and most voters describe a scent that carries easily around the wearer. The number of votes is small, so that picture is tentative. As a unisex scent it sits comfortably on any skin.
It opens with ginger, cardamom, mint and lime for a spicy freshness, while red kelp adds an aquatic edge. The heart brings ylang-ylang, jasmine sambac and Grasse rose, with tequila giving that stage a gourmand touch. In the base, coconut milk, blond woods, musk and amber settle it into a creamy, lightly sweet finish.
