GROOMED LA: THE PERFUME SO SEXY, THEY MADE A DINNER FOR IT AND YES, I WENT.

Last week, I found myself at an impossibly chic dinner at Soho House and the star of the night was Coco de Mer, the ultra-limited fragrance line born from the Seychelles — and let’s just say, it delivered.

Created by Sharon Bonne, a Seychellois Creole powerhouse (and her scientist parents), the Coco de Mer Collection is the first to capture the legendary scent of the Coco de Mer palm’s husk, a scent that was, until recently, nature’s best-kept secret.

Each bottle contains a rare extract from one of only 5,000 fiercely protected palms on Earth, making it less a perfume and more a limited-edition passport to another dimension (ideally barefoot, on a veranda, sipping something cold).

The collection includes:

  • FANM (red bottle): sweet, floral, fruity, ambery — like heat on skin after sundown.

  • OUD (black bottle): leathery, citrus-floral, golden-hour seduction.

  • LODAS: citrusy, spicy, woody — a punchy entrance, a warm linger.

  • SOVAZ: woody, fougère, fresh — smells like a good decision on a bad night.

  • ZONM (blue bottle): fruity, woody, with amber notes — think skin, salt, sex, secrets.

Less than 50,000 bottles produced annually.
Only fallen seeds are used — sustainably, ethically, beautifully.
