Skin & Vanilla Eau Fraiche

Skin & Vanilla Eau Fraiche is a light, beachy, and inoffensive fragrance with a watery coconut and warm vanilla musk base. It evokes a simple, clean scent reminiscent of sunscreened skin or a tropical beach towel — fresh, non-creepy, but not particularly bold. The top features mandarin orange, red apple, and subtle hedione giving a bright, clean lift. The core presents a soft blend of coconut, vanilla, and musk, balanced with hints of chocolate and ambery warmth, forming a slightly sweet, summery profile. The vetiver adds a faint herbal detail, while the ambroxan helps the scent linger just enough. Longevity is moderate, fading noticeably within hours, especially on drier skin. Sillage is intimate and quiet, only noticeable up close. The perfume feels casual and relaxed — perfect for daytime wear in warm weather. It’s not luxurious in its composition — raw notes like the alcohol and minimal depth prevent it from feeling complex or dramatic. While several users find it enjoyable and relaxing, others describe it as simplistic, fading too quickly, or smelling vaguely like 'play dough' in the dry down. The sense of quality comes more from its unassuming pleasantness than from any component beauty. Most appreciate the price, which feels more generous than the actual scent experience.
