Why why why do I buy products first, and then check the reviews after? The description of this on the website sounded absolutely divine. I don't typically go for gourmands but thought I would give...

This is another of my favorite fragrances of all times. I can no longer tolerate most perfumes, and need a much more natural smell. I use this alone, or add it with my Philosophy Honey This...

Personally, I like the intial top notes on my skin it really smells of coconut tanning oil. After about 15 minutes of drydown it does get an artificial rubber/dirt type of essense, but there's...

Surprised to see all the negatives reviews on this one. It is exactly as described..almond & coconut with an emphasis on the latter. What impresses me with this scent is longevity. My biggest...

First review on this site! :D Got this as a sample and it smells like medicine mixed with milk and a tiny hint of coconut. It has a very plastic smell to it that I can't ignore. I'll even go as far...

So on the fence with Coconut Almond. The drydown is a heavenly coconut almond confection bathed in condensed milk! It's a gourmand that stays close to the skin and makes a very yummy edible...

Initially, I loved this fragrance, to me it smelled like a "grown-up" and classy version of coconut with almond and floral notes. Of course, the lasting power wasn't the greatest, but I could still...

I'm sorry but this is pretty yuck .It's overly done almond and coconut and it is underwhelming as a scent and overwhelming to my nose. No subtley at all. Horrid.

This is a pretty sweet mixture of both almond and coconut, however, it doesn't smell quite edible. There is a little woodiness and musk for balance. It is a very snuggly, comforting, and casual...

I loved it, although do not "bath" in this otherwise you will end up with a headache, over all light summer smell.. For a more lasting smell i do suggest applying a lotion first! Its a keeper :)

Wow, I'm surprised by all the bad reviews this fragrance is getting. I guess I'm in the minority because I love this one! I sniffed all the Gourmande fragrances and this one was my favorite. ...

A rare misstep in Laura Mercier's new Eau Gourmande line. It opens up with a lovely burst of sweet, pure, almond, but then the plasticky coconut and artificial vanilla burst in and clobbers it out...

I am very glad I tried this before buying because I really do not like it at all. There is a horrible, chemical tinge to it that makes it very unpleasant for me. It honestly smells like something...
