Coccobello was launched in 2013 by James Heeley. It’s what I wear anytime I want a sublime tropical beach experience.It opens with a gentle green note from palm leaves and a note of fresh coconut - not cocoa butter, suntan lotion or the sweetened coconut used in baking. It smells tropical, it smells good, and when a heady note of indolic gardenia wafts through it, Coccobello soars. Bourbon vanilla - named for its provenance in the tropical islands of Madagascar, Comoros and Réunion and not its alcoholic content – adds a creamy sweetness while an ozonic note smells like a gust of tropical sea air coming off the water. The base is woody and dry from cedarwood and sandalwood, slightly sweetened by the vanilla aspect of benzoin, with oakmoss rounding out the woody, slightly sweet dimension.Coccobello thrives on warm skin but never gets loud or cloying. The drydown is sophisticated, chic and relaxed as a samba. This is a five-star beach vacation on an exclusive tropical island.Notes: Palm leaves, fresh coconut, gardenia, Bourbon vanilla, sea salt, Virginian cedar, sandalwood, benzoin and oak moss.
