  1. Smells like a fruit cake soaked in canned pineapple—super sweet and tropical. But the longevity and projection disappointed me; I used up a 5ml decant in three days. I like the scent, but for the price and lack of staying power, I wouldn’t buy it.

  2. I’m blown away by other people’s comments, but for me, it’s delicious: sweet, juicy, and very long-lasting thanks to the ambroxan. I smell coconut, piña colada, frangipani, and creamy sandalwood; it doesn’t turn bitter or smell like fish or caviar. What are people talking about with Rise? It’s a juicy tropical that stands apart from typical beach scents.

  3. Very fruity and juicy opening with pineapple and coconut, like a slightly milky and sweet piña colada. The frangipani adds depth to the coconut while the sandalwood brings creaminess. The pineapple fades, leaving a creamy, milky coconut from the sandalwood and tiare flowers, with a caramelized base and buttery touches from the toffee. Safe for blind buy if you like gourmands and sweet scents; I feel it’s unisex.

  4. Very tropical and summery. In my opinion, the opening is fruitier and sweeter than the dry-down. I recommend testing it on skin to see if you like the finish. For me, the tiare flower gives it an aquatic and perhaps bitter side in the dry-down, depending on the skin; with molecular notes, everyone experiences it differently. In my case, I would have preferred the opening to last the whole journey, as the dry-down seems herbal to me. It’s not 100% blind-buy safe; test before investing. Sillage is wide for three and a half hours, then becomes moderate. It lasts about seven hours, very summery.

    This is what ‘Iced Star’ should have been but fresher: a freshly made piña colada with frozen ingredients. You can taste a bit of frangipani. It opens super fruity at first, but on my skin it evolves terribly and breaks down quickly. I ended up loving it because, after showering, the dry scent is an incredible floral sandalwood. A friend said it smelled like cheap sunscreen on her. It didn’t give much projection, but it’s very evolving. I don’t think it’s that original.
