This is one of the most authentic smelling and properly made Monoi that I have come across. I really love the smell of tiare flowers and fell in love with this oil and body butters that were...

I've been on the hunt for straight up moon de Tahiti oil which is just tiare flowers soaked in coconut oil. That's it. It smells sexy, fresh, beach, and just gorgeous. This doesn't smell anything...

I absolutely love this stuff. This is an inexpensive mixture of coconut oil and Tahitian gardenias. "Monoi" refers to the concoction that results when you soak the flower petals in the oil, which...

I have been using Monoi of various brands on my skin since I was a teen as my mum is from the Philippines and (like most islands) they have used a preparation such as this for centuries. It's great...

I got this oil too late in the summer, plus I already had a tan, so I can't provide much input about it being a tanning oil. I used it on my face once, and I didn't like the residual waxy smell...

I'm using the 'Tipanie' (frangipani) version at the moment, which I bought in order to compare it with Elemis' Frangipani Monoi Melt. I'm not a huge fan of having to warm up my oils to liquefy, but...

This oil moisturizes OK and absorbs easily; also, the price is pretty good. However, I can't stand the scent (I purchased plumeria). It smells like a combination of cough syrup and...paint thinner?...

I bought the sandalwood fragrance because I don't really like to wear florals. It smells all right; the scent wears off. When my bottle runs out, I'll probably go back to Longs and see if the...
