Malibu - Party in the Bay

This scent was very lime forward with some coconut and boozy undertones. For me, it was a weird combo that I don't want to smell on my body. I would drink this cocktail though!

I catch a hint of musk here that's very nice, but for the most part, it's just cheap coconut suntan oil on me. Maybe it's just my skin chemistry, but it's definitely a disappointment.

I originally had purchased this for myself as a citrus forward summer scent, but it just didn't work for me. I gave this to my partner, and he smells incredible in it! I would consider this to be slightly more masculine and has a wonderful bright lime opening and dries down into a clean, citrus and sandalwood scent. I would not consider this to be a "beachy" scent per se, but it definitely screams summer and is a gorgeous realistic lime, without being gourmand. Warmer days are perfect for this.

While the lime and the coconut notes sounded very appealing, this was a big miss for me. I expected the coconut to stand out a bit more, but instead this smelled more like a high-end cleaning product because of the strong lime notes.

It does smell clean. You can smell the coconut and lime for sure. It's a warm summer evening kinda smell. It is a little musky, but just barely. I only purchased the sample. I'm not a fan of the fresh clean musk, so this isn't for me. But it does smell good. Clean fresh lime musky coconut sums it up. Reminds me a little of the Parrot Bay alcohol in a better way.
