The first year they came out with this was the best ever! They had some the next year after this "original" was released, that wasn't quite as nice and with a cheap looking bottle. The original was expensive looking. I've never found a better scent, coconut or anything else, that compares to this. It seems they would keep this if they were making money off it. The original should be offered each summer instead of coming out with so many other coconut scents that just don't compare. It's expensive to buy online. The best scent ever from B&BW. I'm sorry I didn't get to buy the perfume to go along with this, very sorry.

***DUPE ALERT*** For those that love this & can't find it, Victoria's Secret Coconut Passion is an almost, if not exact dupe. I'm so glad I found it.
This is my favorite fragrance of all time. I smell mostly a soft vanilla, but there is a coconut scent in there as well. Since both coconut and vanilla are my two favorite notes, this one is a winner. I hate bbw for discontinuing it.

This smells...SO...good. I realize everyone has different skin chemistry, but this is an amazing gourmand scent on me, and it even uses that bamboo note without being yucky.
Top notes: carmelized coconut, vanilla, spice (coriander?)
Middle notes: coconut, cotton candy, vanilla, bamboo (very candy-like at this stage)
Base notes: bamboo, musk, vanilla
I have the pump bottle, the formula sinks in fairly quickly, and it's an appropriate weight for a body lotion. It has no SPF and is very strong on me, so I usually mix it 1:2 with another body lotion.
I got this on clearance about two weeks ago at Bath and Body Works, so while the price is good, I don't know how much longer this will be available.

Oh, I love this moisturizer!!!! First, I love to smell 'edible', so I gravitate towards food smells, like vanilla, creme brulee, buttercream frosting...you get the idea. If you're not into yummy scents, you might not like this. I also like anything tropical, so the blend of coconut with a food scent was an instant winner with me. It's a very light scent though, nothing obnoxious or overpowering. Beyond that, I find that the lotion itself is very hydrating. It rubs in quickly and doesn't leave a greasy residue when you're trying to work. I even find that I can rub whatever residue is left on my hands into the ends of my hair and the monoi oils (or some ingredient in there) make the ends look a little healthier, at least until my next shampoo. I only wish they offered this year round; they bring it out each summer and then threaten to discontinue it. So each summer I stock up in case it turns out to be the last summer it's offered. Yes, I am that annoying girl that bought the last one just before you got there!

I LOVEEEEE this scent, but this lotion didn't work for me. When I put it all over my body, it would smell like sweet medicine. It was okay but got really musky after a little bit and I guess it just didn't work with my chemistry. Love the body wash and the EDT though!
