A little island in the sun
I decided to give Dalimania its first full wearing on the first really hot day of the year. I don't find it a wintery perfume a all. Just the contrary, it's light and cheerful for a summer day if you're not in the mood for something green or citrusy.
It's listed as oriental, but to my nose it's far more on the tropical side - that is of course due to the coconut that stands out very much.
The coconut and vanilla seems to interchange all the way through the top, heart, and base (strangely enough). Other than that the peach and iris come forward the most when I wear it.
It's definitely very sweet, but not edible - the coconut makes me think of old travel agency ads with the photos of those amazing white beaches with palms and blue sky and serenity. Those that make you want to rob a bank to get to that place.
Sillage is not exactly huge. It could easily be worn in a crowded place.
My only complaint would be the longevity - about 3 hours on me, which I consider below average.
I like it very much. If only it had been louder and more persistent, I'm sure I would have loved it.
