I’m going to be candid - I have no idea how to describe easily what it smells like other than “cologne”. To me I detect no Fig or Coconut. I hold GD’s Coconut Rum scent as really good and accurate, my favorite scent of his. This one is a pure head scratch from a scent profile.
I brought my tub to my PC desk and spent several hours last night periodically giving it a sniff. The all I could detect was almond and maybe the honey. Sometimes I'd think I got a whiff of coconut, but when I tried to detect it, I couldn't find it. In the end though, this scent is excellent.i
This is exactly the type of issue I had with Mallard Pineapple Rum. I was expecting more pineapple and rum. I couldn't figure it out. I finally settled on a rum barrel accord scent with some pineapple lurking in the background, almost a cologne scent. I too felt the prior year's Coconut Rum Mallard was truer to its name. I missed on the new Tonka Mallard though I do wonder what reaction I now would have to that one. OTOH, the Passion Fruit Mousse is right down the pike. Nothing to complain about with either of the two I purchased but some bewilderment on my part did occur WRT the Pineapple Rum.
