Berdoues Koh Phi Phi Fragrance
[affiliatelink/productsample] It may be a bit late to find the perfect summer fragrance, but none the less, I think I might have found it. I’ve actually never been to Thailand but been on enough sandy beach holidays to know that sense of relaxation that only the sight of a palm tree can bring.
This fragrance steers clear of the obvious – much as I love a fruity coconut scent, Koh Phi Phi focuses more on the floral aspect of being on far flung shores. Ylang Ylang and tuberose feature strongly but not heavily – there’s an ozonic back drop that freshens everything and a very light solar aspect too giving the floral notes a warm earth finish.
The initial spritz is sun-cream and sand before becoming a heady floral and settling eventually to more of the solar aspect. The settle is lighter than I expected because the opening gives you that holiday feeling and then some! It’s highly evocative – I can imagine spritzing this on a winter day and then wearing my summer smile because of it. Berdoues isn’t in wide distribution, more is the pity, but you can find it HERE for EU60.

I have an old bottle of Berdoues somewhere in a cupboard (Violet?) which was lovely. That’s a lovely description Jane. I may purchase online from them and see if there’s an introduction to brand type box too. Plus it’s worthy of a place in any perfume collection based on the gorgeous box and illustrations. Have a great rest of the week. Xx PS have you seen the Shay & Blue brand box on their site? Choose your scents and handcreams = happiness for a super reasonable £25. One per customer..just saying xx
That sounds good… off to have a look!
Just seen the S&B box is now £35. But still worthwhile. Hmm..
I went to their website to purchase this fragrance. Shipping to the US costs 120 euros. LOL Seems to be an error. I didn’t complete the purchase, of course.
what!!!!
I know, it’s so weird. See below. This brand is available at Sephora in the US but this particular perfume is not..
