I bought this last year and as matter of fact I'm wearing it today. I love it!! I am an 80's/90's girl and this transports me back into my convertible Volkswagen blasting my summer mix-tapes on the way to the local swim gathering❤

[@MrKongsMom]

OMG did you have a Volkswagen Cabriolet????? I am literally so jealous lol! I drove a 1982 Honda Prelude.... which I promptly ran into a ditch not long after getting her lol!

[@julieg1413]

@MrKongsMom I just had a regular old VW that I sooped up with a paint job and lowered the front end - which was a thing back then, who knows why. My best friend had a frosty green colored Cabriolet though, I loved that car! Oh no! Preludes were awesome! I had a lot of friends that ran their cars into ditches 🤣

[@Sufferingsassafrass]

@@MrKongsMom Back in my high school days, Honda Preludes were called Qualudes. 😂 so funny to me, still 🤣

[@melissamartin6319]

I was thrilled to see your review on this perfume pop up on my phone! I truly value your opinion on products.

[@MrKongsMom]

Thank you so much Melissa! This scent is heavenly... the lasting power isn't great but oh man is it incredible! Layering it with the SPF would likely help!

[@hollyk2454]

Yayay I can’t wait for the coconut perfume upcoming video!! I’m ready to sit by a pool and smell amazing and drink a fancy beverage! ❤

[@MrKongsMom]

Same! Bring me a piña colada! Stat!

[@SnazzyStacy]

Your perfume recommendations are always spot on! I received Vacation today and I LOVE it!

[@MrKongsMom]

Love to hear it! Enjoy!

[@loriarnold6121]

I’m so excited to see your review on this! I need to check it out. Have a great week girl!

[@hollymyers4665]

Cant wait for the summer perfume recommendations! I am so glad you reviewed this one. Its been on my radar to sniff for a while now. I finally got samples of Beach Walk and Mancera Holidays & both are amazing.

[@MrKongsMom]

Ohhh Mancera holidays 😩😩😩💗. It’s so good!

[@artsymom31]

Yes! I sprayed this a few weeks ago and the nostalgia was real! It lasted fairly well on me for an EDT but my expectations were quite low. The pool and Lycra notes scared me but once I smelled them it just took me right back to simpler times.

[@MrKongsMom]

Right? It’s the essence of youth I think.

[@sisterhoodoffreespirtis6327]

I agree I just bought this and the smell runs out fast for the price . I thought the packaging was awesome 🎉. Smells good but stays on like a body spray . They should have made a body spray . The perfume needs to be stronger to last longer . It wears off fast . 2 hours if your lucky but the smell is so divine

[@MrKongsMom]

With it being an EDT there is only so much it can do in terms of lasting power, but I agree that an EDP would be well received! This scent is one of the best summer perfumes EVER!

[@laurenjohnston2956]

Can’t wait for your summer perfume video!

[@MrKongsMom]

I have some AMAZING recommendations and I am so excited to share them!

[@taramama6658]

I just bought this!! I love it!! It screams summer to me!!! I’m a child of the 80’s and this is great I layer it with coconut lotion!!

[@MrKongsMom]

The scent of this one truly brought me back down memory lane. Such a great scent! Smart to layer it!

[@highway65]

The review I was looking for !! Thank you 😊

[@MrKongsMom]

Thanks for being here!

[@NikParsons-bc1fu]

I went straight to this review when you mentioned this perfume in your recent wax chat video, i have such nostalgia of going into pool stores & smelling the mix of chlorine + inflatable pool toys as a kid & loving hanging out in my pool all summer.. thank you for recommending this, its an insta buy for me! Exciting! 🎉😊

[@MrKongsMom]

This scent is to die for! I have the candle I am testing right now and it smells exactly like the perfume! Ack so good!

[@christienglandhill7039]

Hi 👋 fellow pasty sister. I’m upon my yearly appointment with derm. I was dx’d with Melanoma in 2015 and have the 7” scar to prove it. At least we caught it early and didn’t have to have chemo or radiation. Each time I go, I get a slice and dice and biopsy. Aunt has melanoma with metastasis and is currently undergoing chemo. I definitely would rather be pasty than be in a position she’s in. I’m ok being whiter than white but some people don’t get it. On another note, I’m glad you did a review with this one ❤

[@MrKongsMom]

Oh friend! Thank you for sharing that. I hope many people see your comment and that it inspires them to get checked. It’s a really scary cancer. Very treatable of caught early. Extremely deadly if you catch it late 😔. I’m so glad you are here and can spread the message! Stay healthy! And pasty!

[@christienglandhill7039]

[@susanl.5226]

Oh, "Vacation" sounds so fun & I've already ordered a decant! And *THANK YOU* for your Most Complimented Perfumes video! I tried (and bought) Replica Beach Walk, and I just Love it!! So good! I have Tom Ford Soleil Blanc which I really enjoy, but the scent evaporates soo fast. And really, I think Beach Walk is a tad better anyway. Looking forward to more summer perfume videos! ;-))

[@MrKongsMom]

Oh yay! That makes me so happy to hear! Enjoy smelling like a million bucks!

[@snowisismoon]

I think I would really love this because during the summertime I purposely wear banana boat for those notes along with like a summer bombshell mix from Victoria’s Secret

[@MrKongsMom]

This scent is intoxicating! Try it out!

[@hollymadison6721]

I'm looking for a coconut sunscreen scent. I got Bobbie Brown beach it's too floral for me. I only like tropical flowers. Would I like this?

[@MrKongsMom]

I don’t think this one is particularly floral but there’s a lot going on it. It’s a fantastic scent with coconut sunscreen vibes but all the other notes mention are all mostly present to my nose.

[@hollymadison6721]

@@MrKongsMom Thanks! What scents are most predominate and what's scents are dry down?

[@franlevesque8490]

I just bought a bottle I am waiting for it I can’t wait to try it I love Hawaiian tropical sun tan lotion.

[@MrKongsMom]

It's so good! I hope you love it! I will be repurchasing this summer myself. I have already finished this bottle lol.

[@suegreene7841]

Hi Melanie I keep looking at that vacation perfume and wanting to buy it but haven’t been able to pull the trigger because of the steep price for an Edt. I grew up in the late 70s so I remember the smell of those bathing suits from when I was a young adult we actually wore those suits as well lol

[@susanl.5226]

I think Surrendertochance has decants 1/2 ml to 8 ml. This is what I'm doing to give it a try before committing to a full bottle.

[@MrKongsMom]

Honestly the price point is kinda nuts. Worth trying out the OG sunscreen from them tho! Same scent. Just to experience it 🤣

[@leslihaveman8801]

This smells like summer! But on me…. It fades within the hour. I always get compliments on my perfume, like multiple times per week. In the weeks I wore this, not one single compliment. 😞

[@MrKongsMom]

Oh no! Some body chemistries do make some perfumes fade a bit faster. And with this being an EDT that probably did not help. But dang it’s a great scent. Have you tried layering the sunscreen?

[@stacyinscoe3365]

I love this but it has the sorriest lasting power on me. I returned it

[@MrKongsMom]

I can understand that. I like to pair it with their SPF! Makes for better lasting power and some great SPF protection!

[@carriespackman762]

I just started the video but had to comment burgundy is your color you look amazing

[@MrKongsMom]

Awe, thank you so much Carrie!

[@Kathena622]

Wonder if this is anything like Bobbi Brown Beach?

[@Sufferingsassafrass]

God I loved that fragrance!

[@MrKongsMom]

Not sure but possibly. BB isn’t cruelty free so I’ve never even sniffed it out. BB has never really drawn me in in general.

[@matthewscoggins8727]

Say “like” more. Otherwise, great review.

[@EverythingQueen]

😂@ I don't really care...😅

[@christienglandhill7039]

I had the same reaction 😂

[@Sufferingsassafrass]

I used your link and Ulta has a new Vacation product called ‘Baby Oil’ 😅 The packaging looks just like J&Js! 😂

[@MrKongsMom]

I saw that! Might need it too lol.
