I wanted to give this a higher rating, but at this price point, I just can’t. My wife said the opening smelled like Banana Boat tanning oil, and while the dry down is decent... but it ends up being a skin scent pretty quickly. I used to LOVE Creed fragrances, but their performance and longevity have steadily gone downhill. Will I wear this in the summer to the pool or beach? Yes. But with so many great alternatives to every Creed fragrance out there, I’ll have to pass on this one and find something with better performance.
Creed Virgin Island Water is a fresh, tropical scent with notes of lime, coconut, and rum. It’s ideal for summer, offering a relaxed, beachy vibe. Longevity is average, but the quality and uniqueness stand out.
This is not my usual perfume. I wanted something for Summer beach vacation, and this hit the mark. It smells like a drink you would sip by the pool. On me the lime was VERY strong. But the other notes start to come through during dry down. I would have given 5 stars but for this price point, I need a perfume to last more than a few hours.
Smells to sweet for a guy
Great smell. Strong sweet coconut, doesn’t last as long as I’d like.
Coconut and a sandy a beach, enough said
Very clean scent with mandarin and coconut notes. I do wish it lasted longer on me, but it’s a great day fragrance
I enjoyed this perfume from the moment I sprayed it. The coconut scent really comes through on me. I’d wear this scent alone and layered. Would buy another full size.
i like this fragrance in the bottle a lot but on my skin it smells like bug spray. I feel like i can't wear anything with pineapple in it. it always smells weird on me. It's a bit too manly for me so i gave it to my son. He really likes it.
Smells amazing, but I wish it lasted longer
One of the best smelling colognes period.
This is a great summer time fragrance.
A perfect summer scent. Opens with burst of lime, dries down to a warm coconut. My only issue is it does not last long on me, even with over spraying.
Smells like a warm, salty, island vacation. I can smell the coconut, the salt.
This one is fantastic. Reminds me of an upscale CK one a bit. It’s super fresh and perfect for summer will be getting this one again!
Smells good to me
I have a few good summer scents and a few great summer scents. Virgin Island Water is one of the greats. I am strictly talking about the scent only. The lime and coconut is so delicious to me almost making it gourmand. My favorite fragrances are tropical scents because of the amount of days I can use them in the climate where I live. I wore Virgin Island Water to work on a day where it was about 104° and got about 7 hours before it faded.
Smells like a mixture of spicy sunscreen and a nursing home.
One of my favorites!
This a summer Saturday morning in a bottle. It has a nice clean, fresh scent with light citrus notes. It’s doesn’t project like crazy and sits close to the body. Definitely an office lunch date and a day out with the fellas fragrance.
This is the best Creed scent hands down. It's long lasting, it's effervescent it is Summer vacation in a bottle. It transports me easily to a beach with white sand and umbrella drinks ...oh and i love to smell it on men too. 10 out of 10 i recommend
Unisex white musk pina colada. Caribbean cruise in a bottle. Timeless, breezy, fun.
Smells like fancy sunscreen, so glad I didn’t waste the money on this
It’s a beautiful coconut-lime summer breeze in a bottle. I just wish it projected and lasted longer for the price being.
I'm very much a winter parfum person which led me to scentbox to try more summer scents. I was pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed the notes. It is not sunscreen-esque as other's noted. I could wear this as a 45 y/o business professional to the office and to a business dinner, or out on weekends. Reapply is necessary as it is not long lasting, but the after notes/dry down is lovely. Would have 5 stars if lasts longer than 6 hours.
Nice smell fades out kinda fast
I don't know if I got the correct scent, it smelled very feminine.
Creed Virgin Island Water is a fragrance that exudes a sense of weightlessness and freshness. It's like a cool breeze on a sunny day, with its invigorating blend of fresh citrus and lemon notes. While some people mention that it smells like a piña colada, I personally didn't get that exact vibe. However, I can understand why people might make that association due to its tropical undertones. In terms of performance, Creed Virgin Island Water has a decent longevity, lasting around four hours on my skin. It's not the longest-lasting fragrance out there, but during those four hours, it leaves a delightful and uplifting impression. Overall, I think Creed Virgin Island Water is an amazing fragrance. While it may not be my absolute first choice, it's definitely a scent that I would want to have in my collection. Its unique combination of citrusy freshness and tropical vibes makes it perfect for those warm and sunny days. That's why I'm giving it five stars! So, if you're looking for a fragrance that stands out from the crowd and brings a refreshing twist to your collection, I highly recommend giving Creed Virgin Island Water a try! ??????.
I am obsessed and can’t wait to see the difference on how it smells with my man’s chemistry. It starts out completely lime. So citrusy, but then the rum and sugar pulls through almost smelling like a cocktail, then as it starts to dry down, that jasmine and coconut come through and pulls it all together. It is so beautiful. Refreshing. I would repurchase again and again. This will be perfect for the summer. And very unisex!!
Great scent
Smells like lemon scented pledge
Awsome!
The perfect classy beachy summer scent. Long lasting and intoxicating in a good way. The coconut and citrus really stand out for me. Glad I wore this on my last tropical vacation because every time I smell it, I remember the amazing times in Puerto Rico!
It's smells good but it wasn't the Island vibe I wanted
Well the smell was nice but don't last long enough for me
Love this! Was very pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoy this perfume!
I loved this! Clean coconut/vanilla scent! It is a light and airy scent.
Very light floral citrus scent. Definitely a mix of a spring summer mix. Scent is fruit forward smelling. Perfect to wear on a Caribbean vacation.
Coconut definitely stands out with a hint of citrus and sugar. Also can pass as a light cologne. Summer scent for sure. Not sure how long it lasts yet but right now sits close to the skin.
nice summer scent
I smelled this in stores and thought I would like it because of the freshness that it offers. I don’t know if it’s just the sample or what but this fragrance was weak. I couldn’t smell it
Not my favorite but a nice summer scent
Not my favorite. More of a light men's cologne with coconut notes.
Love the scent.
Very easy reach tropical summer fragrance. Silage and longevity were somewhat weak.
Fades fast but is pretty good, nice summer scent.
Scent itself is 4 stars… but the poor longevity and poor sillage make it 2 stars. I finished my travel size in onlt a few days because I was constantly having to re-apply. I’m glad I tried it, but would never spend the money on a full bottle.
This scent screams vacation mode! It's fresh and clean and smells like a tropical breeze. I love this one but I'm really happy that I have a decant versus the full bottle because it's really a summer fragrance.
A lovely summer/holiday scent
It's a lovely light fresh scent, with unique notes. You can definitely detect the coconut and lime. Only 4 stars because it's not very versatile, this is a summer only scent, and just not one of my favorites.
I smelled like a mojito. Go for it if that’s your goal. Lol The smell did not last long on me. Wish I had exchanged this.
My favorite creed scent!
A blast of coconut and lime with a hint of cologne. I was an instant fan. I can’t imagine wearing this any time other than in the summer… it would feel really out of place lol. It doesn’t last long (most Creed don’t to me). I don’t think it’s worth the price but I’m really happy to have this as travel size.
This is the most tropical fragrance that I have smelled. It's a beautiful lime and coconut scent. Would recommend to anyone. Wish it lasted a bit longer though. Just reapply throughout the day.
Great fragrance for summer time at the beach. I don’t wear it a whole lot as it’s imo a style made for beach wear or pool wear it’s heavy on that side but it is nice and one of my favorites.
Probably one of my favorite scents from Creed
Great honeymoon scent!
Great vacation fragrance.
This is one of my favorite creed scents, second being aventus. The scent starts off strong but it quickly mellows down to a sweet scent of the beach, coconut, and citrus. The only con to this fregrance is that it doesnt last very long. Maybe 2 hours on a warmer day. I catch myself having to reapply througout the day which is why I rated it 4 stars out of 5.
Smells like a spicy lime lotion you would get at Walmart. The lotion would at least last longer and project further. The smell lasts for 1 hour max. All hype. Better to get a lotion from bath and body works.
I like this spring summer fragrance put some heat to this fragrance it will show off
I love the smell as soon as you put it on it makes you think of a tropical place. Id definitely rock this as a daily.
Did not live up to the hype. It's a great opening to be sure but it dries down to boring, barely there, muted coconut water and then disappears from my skin. I'm lucky if it lasts an hour on my skin. I expected something with more depth and nuance at the price point Greed sells it at. The projection is ok, nothing to write home about but I suppose it projects more in high heat/humidity. It does stay smelling great on clothes though. Definitely would be worth buying and respraying if it was priced like the body mist it is. My younger sister says it smells like a bath bomb in a good way. "Smells like something at Lush that's definitely yellow," were her exact words.
Perfect summer scent.
Smells amazing- very fresh, summery and a little bit sweet. Does not project well, or last long
It opens up with a nice fresh lime scent, which unfortunately quickly fades once it dries down. You can smell a hint of coconut but I could mostly detect musk with a bit of rum. Overall, it gave kind of a tropical "vibe"...somewhat like what you would smell while sipping on a nice rum drink with lime in it. This doesn't project well, however, I can still smell it (faintly) on my clothes and skin for hours. I have heard of dupes for this that I will probably try out to see if it projects better than this, since it's quite expensive. I would also add that it definitely comes across as unisex, maybe slightly masculine leaning.
Perfect summer scent. Very fruity. Just wish it lasted longer.
Smells like a pina colada. Very coconut after dry down
Wasn’t sure if I liked it at first but it definitely grew on me. Scent lasts a lot longer than most other colognes I’ve tried on here. Solid fragrance
delicious mojito smell, i love it for summer
Not my favorite, more of a masculine scent. It’s growing on me
This fragrance is great. Long lasting and the mrs. loves it.
The fragrance smells great, with that being said it's a little too feminine for my liking.
This one surprised me. It's a great scent with great longevity!
This is a very feminine scent. My wife loved it. I didn't notice is was unisex until I got it. I didn't like it on me at all smelled very cheap. Also doesn't last long.
Fresh, lime, salty, long lasting. Virgin Island Water is the right name for this, but it doesn't really strike me as tropical or beachy - at least not your typical beach scent. Very upscale, and totally unisex. This isn't my signature Creed scent because weather plays a big role in when this is best worn (warm weather) but it's great, and this is definitely a fragrance I would keep in my collection.
Smells amazing, very tropical. The lime and coconut really pop but over all a very nice scent. I get a lot of compliments and asked what I’m wearing. I’d give it 10 stars if possible.
This was disappointing to me. I have heard about this scent for a long time and thought I would love it. I love all tropical scents typically. This one smelled just like Bath and Body Coconut Lime Verbana when I wore it. It had a little more mature vibe to it but the lime was overpowering to me. Didn’t last. The dry down was very peppery on my skin.
Smells like a Caribbean vacation without the long flight. Girls seem to love it too... I get lots of compliments. Scentbox version doesn't last as long as the cologne I buy in stores, but smells good. Grab it when you can cuz it will not last!
One of my favorites. Cant go wrong with this one
One of the best summer fragrances of all time. A must own.
Liked the fragrance...didn't last long...but this is the best way to try pricey colonges.
Smelt decent but , to citrusy at first but after it settled decent.
The reason for my 5 stars is the quality of the scent. Its undeniable. A very pure, real, tropical beach smell. It doesnt have any synthetic notes. Its like I dunked my nose in a Pina Colada on a yacht off some golden coast. Many scents like these come off as a fake "coppertone" scent. This is as pure as it gets. So if you are looking for a HIGH quality beach vibe scent that makes people think you own a yacht, this is a prime contender, even if it cost as much as one.
I honestly expected more for the price tag this has. It didn’t catch my attention like something fancy. It made me feel like I went on a tropical getaway with my older mature boyfriend. It is nice pina colada vibe w/ some spice when it sets down
It smells good but not worth the price.
Smells amazing. Unfortunately doesnt last long maybe an hour.
Good smelling has a sun tan lotion vibe but great for casual summers . Price point is the issue . You can get similar smells for 25-30 bucks .
Smells very nice. Kind of like Jovan Musk ( an old school perfume) Definitely would not spend money on a full bottle. The scent does not last long at all.
Perfect summer beachy scent!
Smells fresh and clean!
Not the best from the house of creed.
I usually love citrusy scents. Lime, when done a certain way, is amazing! This scent, however, gives me heavy Lysol vibes. The Lime hits very harshly and is reminiscent of a restroom cleaner. I guess the plus is that it doesn't last long. Once I sprayed it on my skin, the scent melted away within the hour.
Ordered this one for a friend. He did not care for it too much.
Way too weak of a smell
To sweet and fruity
Too “lemony”
An excellent summer scent. The lime off the top is excellent and marries really well with the coconut to give this semi mineral oceanic vibe.
Not a winner for me .. smells more like a room deodorizer..
Amazing smells tropical but so fresh at the same time
The scent is well blended for sure however it just doesn't last. I over spray and layer with body butter and body mist. It smells like a vacation in a bottle. Love the scent.
Good vacation scent
Smells fresh but doesn't last.
Smells like a coconut/lime beach vacation. The scent is very light and does not last long. At first I was not impressed but after using it I really enjoy it as a light everyday scent after a shower. To be honest it smells more like a body spray than a perfume. If you are looking for a light everyday clean scent this is for you.
This smells like you are sitting on a coconut beach with a drink in your hand. The only downfall is the scent doesn’t last long.
It is alright, would not buy again though.
A, Doesn't LAST BUT 5 MINS. Disappointed i would not recommend.
Amazing it’s a great unisex fragrance.
Nice
Great, fruity summer smell. First things I smell are coconut and lime.
It's ok
orange, fresh, suitable for summer, very short lasting. not a buy for me, too expensive for the lasting time.
Like it. Thought maybe more topical, but it's nice smelling.
Smells like the beach. It's a soft scent that lasts a few hours.
Great combination of tropical island fragrances - lime, coconut, rum, herbs. I agree with other reviews that it starts big and dries down quickly into something more subtle. I wish it lasted a bit longer as I found myself applying again and again to get that potency of all the notes together. But it’s delicious without being heavy, at least for me. A really nice summertime fragrance for day or night - or really anytime of year that you need a pick me up.
This is a really good scent, but I must admit that I like it on my husband more than on me. At first spray, it honestly smells like spicy fruit loops. The dry down is boozy and tropical. I love the smell, but not on myself. The longevity is a little lacking on this this one.
Great scent, but it's not worth the money. Longevity is ok at best. It does have a good lime and coconut vibe. Save your money and buy Tommy Bahama for $25.
The top notes surprised me of how citrusy a perfume can smell but that's not negative at all, it's refreshing and lasts for a short time, then it's very coconutty. Amazing summer scent that will make you wish that you're sitting on a beautiful beach somewhere while enjoying piña coladas.
Wife and I both enjoy wearing this. I get a lime and coconut tropical vibe here.
Good quality fragrance, definitely leans more to the femine side than masculine but has its applications. Very fresh smelling no chemical smells at all, a natural scent . Like everyone has said it doesn't last very long at all, you'd have to be pretty close to smell it after an hour.
Perfect summer fragrance! Really hope they keep this one around.
Smells so fresh. The main things I can smell with this perfume is lime and a hint coconut and sunshine. I wanted a perfume that would make me smell like summer, and this is it.
It’s a very nice scent but in my opinion it doesn’t last very long.
I love this scent. It smells like a beach trip in a bottle. Lasts a decent amount of time on skin. Tho its deff a summer scent, I could also see wearing it during other seasons for an aromatic getaway.
Classic summer. Like being on a beach in the Caribbean. Rum, lime, coconut. Summer in a bottle.
Seriously, one of the best summer frags out there. Don’t be a sissy sprayer and it will last a long time! A full bottle is out of my price range, but it sure was great to sample. I’ll enjoy every drop!
Last long, smells great. Only see myself using this when going to the beach.
One of my favorite smells, very tropical, Doesn’t last long though also is quite weak, I guess that’s why it has the word water in it, but it smells really nice though
More compliments on this than any other premium fragrance so far. It is soft and I have noticed people go out of their way to get closer to smell it and ask about it. It does last long while for me but like many others have noted it does not radiate very far.
very clean and citrusy
Summer in a bottle! If you're not a fan of citrus, don't bother, but I love it. It's clean, warm, and fresh all at the same time. Probably the best scent I've had.
Smells amazing but it’s pretty weak.
When I first sprayed this I thought it was very masculine. It starts out with very strong lime and then somehow morphs into a beautiful coconut scent, no longer so masculine. It could be worn by anyone. It’s perfect for summer!
It’s a beautiful scent. I have gotten several compliments.
Smells amazing, very coconuty which is what I wanted. However, I was dissatisfied with the longevity and projection. For the price, it should project much better and last all day.
I am very easy going with rating perfumes. But THIS perfume absolutely was a huge disappointment. All I smell is Coconut rum and that’s it. Lasts literally 15 minutes and projects 5...maybe. Will not buy this again lol.
It’s really a really clean summer smell. Perfect for summer. I love it.
Wow this smells great. I get notes of vanilla, coconut, sweetness, kinda like a high end sun tan lotion smell.
I love it. Received a lot of compliments. The frangance lasted a long time for me. Very beachy like smell
I love this scent! It smells like a tropical island ??
Smells amazing
The reason for 5 stars is that it smells great. It doesn't last AT ALL. Sits close to your skin and when you can get little whiffs of it here and there it reminds you of a little beach vacation. Costs waaaaaaaay to much to not last very long.
This smells great!! Like a tropical island. With all creeds I have tried tho, it becomes a skin scent within 15 mins and for the price I would never buy it
It's a good smell to it but the only dislike is it wear out fast
This was a surprising smell, very lemon like at first, then very fresh and nice. runs off to fast
Good
????????
Nice scent but sits close to the skin. Barely noticeable after a few hours.
Scent wasn’t bad at all, very subtle, but the longevity was not good at all. I couldn’t smell it after at most an hour.
Great summer fragrance. Fresh--coconut & lime, maybe a hint of sugar-- like a great beach drink. Not great projection or longevity, but I don't mind that in a summer fragrance. I don't think I would wear this fragrance after Labor Day.
Smells like the beach...
Not good at all ??????
Wouldn't recommend
This scent smells amazing. Reminds my wife of Key Lime Pie and she loves how it smells on me. Nothing else smells like and I don't think you can go wrong with the scent.
I'm really not convinced by most of the Creed scents that I have tested or tried over the years. I am currently all about citrus based, and summery scents - helps living in Florida - and thought I would give Virgin Island Water a chance. Well I was very pleasantly surprised. It is bright and bold as soon as it hits my skin, but it dries down quickly but stays strong. I was surprised by how forward the coconut accord is and never thought I would ever say I enjoyed coconut in a scent, but it really works here. As VIW continues to dry down, it becomes a bit of a closer scent and the floral complexities come to the fore. But you don't lose the citrusy lime and coconut throughout.
I wanted to like it. Unfortunately, when I put it on, it smelled great for a minute and then faded away. So disappointing.
I wanted to love this. I didn’t want to fold to the reviews but this really smells like Sprite. When you first spray it, it smells like a lime, then it settles into a powdery, smooth pleasant smell, but you can only smell that if your sniffing yourself. It doesn’t radiate what so ever so it’s almost pointless to wear. I definitely wouldn’t recommend this.
Excellent Summer fragrance. Longevity and sillage kept me wanting more
Ordered it twice. I really don’t like it compared to YSL or Zen. My bottom line is it’s a clean lemon smell with a slight hint of bug spray.
It's a very enjoyable scent. I can definitely smell coconut and some rum notes in this. Reminds me of some kind of coconut cocktail. Perfect for summer and hot weather. The performance is great. It lasts me pretty much the whole day.
ooooowwwww I love love it
Reminds me of coconut sunscreen!
Absolutely love this scent. It’s not overpowering, and it lasts all day. I’ve gotten many compliments on it.
Liked the lime smell. It was somewhat tropical but hubby thought it was too masculine. Now I just use it at home. Don't want to smell like a guy!
Love the Smell, but it didn't last at all
Long lasting but smell like an older person really not my type
It smells nice but by the end of the day the scent was gone
Smells beautiful, but didn't last long at all. Three hours after applying , it isn't even a skin scent. Smells so tropical, like salt and coconut at first. Reminds me of Bath and Body Works old Coconut Lime Verbena, but more complex and sophisticated.
I love this scent. The coconut stands out and I love it. It's summer in a bottle. :)
Very lovely dry down.
Long lasting. Just not my type of scent
Love it
My first time smelling a Creeed fragrance. I was blown away. Makes me want to dump anything less- which makes for an expensive hobby. Brilliant.
Very light but powerful. I received several compliments while wearing this fragrance
Love it!
Perfect for that summer scent you have been looking for. Lime and coconut with rum tones. Never thought I would find a more perfect scent. Definitely a summer go to.
A nice light scent to wear daily or even for a outing
This is a perfect summer holiday, fun in the sun type frag. Realistic lime, coconut and rum--delicious! 4/5 stars for longevity (3-4 hours MAX).
Smells like lemon Pine-Sol
Top-notch fragrance. Close to my favorite, but not quite. Very fresh, clean scent with tropical tones.
This fragrance smells delicious! Super fresh and suave I would only wear this during summer time. The note more noticeable is coconut 100% I’m only giving 4stars because of the longevity, i was expecting much more from the Creed House...
Gives you that beach feeling lime coconuts maybe pineapple, sweet freagerance.
Love this fragrance, best description I can give is a lime juice, coconut, sea spray sexy man. It’s very unisex but I love it!
This once is good. Very fresh smelling. Didn't like it at first spray until the dry down. Definitely a winner.
The smell is unbelievably great. Piña Colodaish scent after it settles down. It starts with a very nice lime scent once sprayed then it calms down to a coconut smell. Only thing preventing 5-stars is longevity. Probably get 4hrs and need to reapply.
Amazing smell! Poor longevity :/
Love It ..
This really is about chemistry, smelled great on my nephew.. as for me, my chemistry made it smell like Bug Spray. He even sed Wow! This smells soo weird On you .. To me it leans more on the Masculine side then Feminine.. but to each there own , this fragrance is really based on your body. I’m just shocked at how different it performes on everyone.
Absolutely love this fragrance. I couldn't stop smelling myself when I wore it. It didn't project well so people will have to get up on you to enjoy it.
Smells like coconut sun tan lotion. Not for me at all.
As a chef this is truly the most delicious smelling scent I have ever experienced. I am currently researching and trying to look to develop a dish that is influenced by this sent. Thank you scentbox for the opportunity for me to have this scent.
I feel like heading to a tropical island when I wear Virgin Island Water. It's a nice, light scent. Kind of piña colada-y. Doesn't last very long or project very well.
It smelled like cleaner. I gave it a chance and put it on but I didn't like it at all.
Gorgeous refreshing cocktail--like a caipirinha. Very unisex, one of the few coconuts I like cause the lime and general freshness keeps it from smelling like suntan oil or heavy like a hair product.
Didnt last that long and the smell was alright nothing to brag on
Smells to older for me
Its very airy and overall sexy. Its soft but not overpowering. I feel extra feminine and romantic wearing this scent. I may add this again to have 2
Too light and didn't last
Tropical smell, last long
I did not like this one, it smells like a suntanning solution. Do not recommend it!
Just smells like citrus not that great
Hate the scent
Has a sweet and synthetic smell.
Very pleasant.
Too light. Doesn’t last long at all
Love this scent! Smells very refreshing. However, didn’t last long.
I like it. Nothing I would go out and buy a bottle of. It smells to me like every other coconut summer fragrance Nothing really outstanding or special about it considering the price for a full bottle. But it is nice. I guess I just expected more for what they charge for a full bottle.
Smells like lemondrop candy -- not my personal preference but may be yours
Smelled like a lemon more for girls I think
Love it
Good smell, agreed on longevity. Hopefully are wonderful scentbox hosts aren't cutting it to much.
The power of a good fragrance, first and foremost, is in the mood it can put you in. Versace Eau Fraiche, for example, makes me feel fresh-out-of-the-shower clean, all day long. Creed Aventus makes me feel like a handsome, high class lady's man, etc... This fragrance, Creed Virgin Island Water makes me feel very clean and relaxed! As if I am on a beautiful island vacation. I love the Pineapple\coconut projection. Very tropical. This is a fragrance that I'd wear to a casual event. Like an outdoor barbeque, on a date to a dimly lit, cosy restaurant n a warm evening. On a night when after after a few drinks at the bar, my beauty and I are taking a romantic walk. This fragrance says, "innocence, relaxation, letting go and living in the moment. No worries. Everything is perfect. Life is perfect. This moment is perfect. Life is an amazing vacation and I'd rather be with no one else, in this gift of a moment, but you"... On longevity. I disagree with the reviews that claim the blissful smell doesn't last. It DID for me! The way I test is by spraying on the neck area of the shirt that I'll be sleeping in and if I can still smell it in the morning, when I awaken, it passed. This fragrance stays with you all day long! Creed truly makes some HIGH QUALITY products!!!
This is a beautifully balanced fragrance. Notes of citrus and coconut. It smells like a tropical paradise.
Smells good but it’s not very manly. More of a vacation in the tropics or woman’s scent
Don't get me wrong, this fragrance smells great. The longevity is the problem. I swear it doesn't last more than 1+ hour.
Don't get me wrong its a great fragrance however as a man I can only give it 3 stars, on my wife though I'd give it 5-stars. It's too feminine in my opinion to be unisex
Indeed I do love this fragrance. However I wish it did last just a bit longer. It does put me and the mind of in nice beautiful summer day. It is something that I would actually wear on a date. However I would have to be very close to the woman I'm dating just for her to smell it. Nonetheless is a wonderful fragrants
i like this scent, wish i got it with warmer weather! It is a casual scent,definitely a day time/work - i wouldnt wear something this LIMEY on a date. i personally get very strong hints of lime, i can almost smell nothing else. but not in a overpowering way.
I love VIW. Its so fresh on the opening, like you just got blasted with coconut in the face. It does not last the longest which I think is its only downfall. I give it a 5 star because of how amazing the opening is. If you havent got this one i suggest it.
The opening with its bergamot, citrus, and the signature coconut set the tone of tropical freshness; and the gradually developing rum-infused booziness firms the hints towards the Caribbean theme. Further into the drydown, a floral theme is added into the mix, with ylang-ylang most prominent on my skin, although jasmine and a good measure of ginger are present in the background. The base adds a touch of sugar cane, but through the whole longitudinal development it is the rum and the coconut that constitute the core components on my skin, with the coconut at times rather heavy and creamy at some stage. I get moderate sillage, excellent projection and a very acceptable longevity of eight hours on my skin. A rich tropical creation that puts Caribbean inspirations into the bottle. At times some notes are pushed a bit too much to the periphery, but overall the concept works well. 3.5/5.
Love it. The first time I tried it I went out several minutes after 2 sprays, and I was stopped by a woman passing by me asking what I was wearing. It's a very unique scent. It might not be for everyone, but it is definitely for me! Awesome cologne 5/5
This is my favor summer scent I have ever smelled. It doesn't last more then a hour. Plan to carry the little travel size with you.
A great summer scent! Girls tend to love this scent.
Smells like a wonderful Beach Vacation
I really like the scent! It’s fresh, fun, and full of notes that give it a great spring/summer flavor. However, it seemed to wear pretty quickly.
So very good! Creamy coconut with an attitude and slight edge. Why is it out of stock? Bring more please!
It smells amazing!! But does not last :(
Lime, coconut, suntan lotion, lumber, a bitter sweetness..rather unique and light on the skin. Undetectable after a few hours. Not a love but a fun, uplifting daytime scent.
Lol I really liked and didn’t know it was men’s
I'm a big fan of Creed I do like the scent a lot I like the more Unisex scents lately and feel Creed does a great job with their Unisex smells wish they had more of them :)
Smells very citrusy and a little too sweet for my taste. It's not bad at all but just in my opinion this is better suited for a women. Didn't seem to last very long either. Very much a outside summertime vibe.
Summer in a bottle! Very cocktail-ish with the rum and coconut notes, which are very prominent. Average projection on my skin (1-2.5 hours) and pretty good longevity (7-8 hours). Solid daytime/beach/pool scent!
Magnificent, thanks again!
Just didn’t do it for me. Smells more like a perfume than a men’s product
Love this scent everything i expect from the nose's at creed. Love the opening but even better love the long game as far as scent is concerned. Seems though that if your in a place were its warm the scent wears fast. If you wash your clothes a particular way it sticks great If your body's Ph levels are off it will effect the overall long game. Im very picky about potency and strength.. if im paying 90 dollars to 200 dollars for a fragrance i want it to last. And i hate to say it like this but aftershaves seem to last longer on scent than alot of mainstream colognes. Why? I have no idea. But if this scent lasted as long as say OLD SPICE or the old English leather it would impress me and i would gladly pay the full price
For me the coconut was too much. Reminded me of wearing sun block on the beach. Not a bad smell but not one I want to wear off the beach or when I am not pool side. I was expecting more of a citrus given the name and without reading much about the fragrance. Note: my expectations were pretty high with the Creed name.
Dry down is better than opening but smells more like a cleaner than cologne to me. To each their own...some people love it!
The opening is great. There's a tiny bit of coconut and a load of lime in the beginning. Within half an hour, there is only a loud lime. Soon even the lime fades; within an hour there is nothing left. I have tried many clones of VIW, and to be honest, the clones are better than the real thing. Scent and performance in no way match the price.
One of the best fragrances I have ever smelt! Vacation in a bottle! Summer time! Will Smith! I just wish it lasted a little longer.
I have had several clones and I was anxious to smell the real thing. There is no doubt, it smells of quality. The first hour is a wonderful thing. The problem I had is after about two hours, it dies quickly. If it lasted, I would say it might be worth the price tag for a full bottle. For the price, I will go with the Alexandria version. I am very happy I got it however and hope SB gets in other Creed.
The scent was ok... it’s still a bit chilly where I live so I will be trying this fragrance again once it warms up a bit.
Not my favorite but it's not the worst dont know if I would pay the price for a full bottle of this. I hope scentbox gets ahold of a few other of the creed products look forward to seeing some new options.
Smell like vanilla and coconut cream
I got a weakartificial coconut with some vanilla and neither did anything for me which was disappointing since I'm typically a fan of Creed.
Great scent.
Maybe more a 3.5. Not impressed but one of a kind so... very feminine. Very tropical
This fragrance is fantastic! Another great one from Creed. Garners lots of compliments. Great summer scent.
Nice scent..... I get a salty mojito smell from this fragrance. Nice sillage for first few hours. Then goes away really quick on my skin. I have to reapply a couple of time if wearing the whole day. Thats why only 4 stars.
It smells really nice creed is one of my favorite brands. I'm planning on getting more. I wish scentbox had more creed brand colognes.
I like the coconut and citrus smell very nice one of my favorites colognes .
Smells like sun tan lotion....
Nice coconut sent I like it but my wife did not that’s why it’s getting 4 stars
Very nice once it dries out
I like the scent. It does give you an island vibe smell.
Not sure about the hype, It does smell different from fragrances I own..it's ok
Awesome scent
I love the subtle hints of fruit and the cleanliness or the fragrance
Reminds me more of room spray.Its smells great but not as perfume in my opinion.def summer.my man said no way for him.so sure glad paid $14.95.
Smells mostly like vanilla to me, smell fades after a few hours, i found myself reapplying, which resulted in running out too quickly.
I just got this fragrance and I'm basically obsessed. I want to bathe in it lol It's so ME.
Just ok
