As a coconut and vanilla lover, I had high hopes!

Almost has a passion fruit note - definitely fruity with coconut. Dries down super musky - I lose the vanilla and coconut completely

LATE late drydown is not good. There is something indolic in there that I'm not liking at all.

    So interesting how we perceive scents differently. This is an intensely powdery coconut for me from initial spray through the drydown. The powdery coconut gives me Queening vibes. I love them both, but was hoping for more incense/ florals with Alto Astral

      It is so interesting, isn’t it?! I blame it on the Jasmine note. I am finding I just don’t love highly indolic Jasmine. Queening, on the other hand, is one of my god-tier scents. I love it and it can do no wrong. 😂

      I wore Queening yesterday. They're great. If you like those you might like CH Cedar Chic or Diptyque eau Duelle edt (the edp is woodier for most people). Cedar Chic is insanely hyped right now, but I finally gave in and tried it (along with several dupes) and unfortunately the hype is justified if you like fresh woody scents. Rayhaan Cedrus Blanc and Dua Cedre Couture are a tad sweeter, which may appeal more to you since you love Queening. Land of Aahs is close to the OG.

      Eau Duelle has been on my list for weeks! I need to find time to run to Nordstrom to get my nose on it. Maybe this weekend!
