Thorough scientific work bears fruit, people! 🙂
Do you remember my study about the intricate relationship of men and coconut? Obviously this post also resonated with the lovely (male) people of Honoré des Pres, since they contacted me with an incredibly generous offer- an offer for you, dear readers!
Honoré des Pres will give 50 (yes, fifty) random readers a sample set containing Love Coconut (formerly known as Love, Coco) and Vamp à NY, both fabulous creations by Olivia Giacobetti.
To win a sample set, please leave a comment on this post AND then email me at olfactoria at gmail dot com (or use the contact form on the blog) with your mailing address. Fifty commenters will be randomly chosen and will receive their sample sets directly from the brand located in France.
Please leave your comments until Tuesday, June 14, 12pm GMT, at the latest.
I think this is a fantastic chance to test those two perfumes, don’t let it slip by!
Good luck everyone! And don’t forget: Men love Coconut, it is scientifically proven! 😉
Olfactoria's Travels 
I’m all about science! 😉
A generous offer, indeed. And thank you for hosting the give-away 😀
And I happen to like coconut in scents, too – so I guess this would be a win-win situation!
Fantastic! I love coconut in perfumes and this would be a great chance for me to try these lovely perfumes! 🙂 Thanks!
Thanks, for offering the giveaway, Birgit! I’d like to be included. I have not smelled many fragrances with coconut, so it would be fun to win these samples.
Coconut rules!! 🙂 Thanks for draw!
Sorry, wrong website: bellatrixperfumes.com
Brilliant offer! I would love to be included, too. I’m looking for a summer coconut scent – in my experience your science is spot on! 🙂 I love what Honore have done with this packaging, making perfume playful.
Thanks!
This sounds like a fantastic giveaway !The smell of coconut is so alluring especailly when its the middle of winter here in South Africa .The smell and image of coconut will transport me back to the balmy ,sunny beach lined shores of Mauritius and chase away the winter blues.
Thank-You
Rene

I have wanted to try these for some time – what a great draw! The smell of coconut is summer and beaches!
My childhood smelled like coconut. I’d love to try Love Coco, love coconut, love thus summer’s Love Drug (the ubiquitous BG), love it all! I’ll hit that beach any day, even if I am…as white as…coconut! 😉

I am a guy! Don’t I deserve one? 🙂
Sure you do! It is just as I say: Men love coconut, also on themselves! 🙂 Good luck!
I love coconut, too. (And men! And men who love coconut!) Can I be in? 😉
A very generous draw by Honore des Pres! Their two fragrances definitely sound worthy of a try, not in the least because of the talented Olivia. Please include me in the draw and thank you both 🙂
Sah-weet! Please enter me in the draw. I’d love to drive my man wild. And I love coco nut too. Mmmm, mmm, loving this.
I am not usually swayed by packaging, but this looks so chic. Does it really come in a paper coffee cup? With the tray? Can these be ordered within Canada?
Hi Carole,
It comes in the paper cup, but no tray as far as I know! 😉
I know that beautyhabit.com and anthropolgie.com both carry the line, they should ship to Canada.
If you are interested in entering the givaway to try the samples, you need to email me or use the contact page with your mailing address. Good luck!
Recently found your blog. Have been slowly reading the backlog of posts with great interest. I am also in Vienna by the way: I saw you had a shout-out post some time ago, before I was a reader, about geographically-approximate fellow travelers.
Please enter me for the draw — I am a man and I do love coconut, so you can chalk up another case study that confirms your theory.
Hi Miguel,
great to see a fellow Viennese here! You are entered in the draw, good luck to you and I hope to see you here often! 🙂
I have been wanting to try Vamspss NY forever. Please enter me in draw
They sure look great. And coconut is never wrong in my book. 😉
This is a great giveaway, I have been so curious about this line! Please enter me in the drawing. Will email.
I definitely would like to enter the price draw, as my husband really only likes coconut scents. As you know.
Any chance that this coconut is semi-unisex? I love the idea of a coconut fragrance for men (I heard that Creed’s VIW is supposed to be coconutish, but it was mostly aquatic on me)
Hi Sean,
I don’t think of Love Cocnut as especially feminine, I am sure it would work well on a man! I hope you get the chance to try it!
My sweetie does indeed love coconut. Thanks!
I usually don’t enter giveaways but this one I must. 🙂 I found you via Carrie (eyeliner on a cat) and have been following your posts for a few weeks. Learning a lot from you guys! xoxo
What a great offer! I love Olivia Giacobetti’s perfumes!
This offer is spectacularly generous I love Honore Des Pres ! Please enter me in this fabulous drawing.
Hi, I’d love to be entered in the drawing!
I have never tried Honore Des Pres. Please enter me in the drawing.
Did i win? Did I win????
The winners will be posted at 4pm today! You’ll have to wait until then… 😉
I know I am way too late to enter the give away – but I am searching online for coconut inspired perfume as I love the whole Summer/beach/holiday fragrance- the only one I have thought got close is one of the Gwen Steffani Lovers teenage scents – not quite what I am looking for!!Where can I get a sample of this fragrance in the UK? Or better still, purchase some…..my searches are proving fruitless! (Excuse the pun!)
Hello Melanie,
Without googling myself, I only know that First in Fragrance carries the line, they ship to the UK (samples as well) and are trustworthy and usually very quick.. I believe you can also order directly from the company’s website.
Another lovely coconut/floral scent is Estée Lauder Bronze Goddess (there is also a review on my blog), that may be easier to find for you.
I hope you find your summer scent! 🙂
