From the very first spray, Jet Setter transported me to a scent memory so vivid and luxurious that I’ve been hooked ever since. This fragrance isn’t just a perfume—it’s an experience, a passport to an endless tropical escape.
While not a gourmand in the traditional sense, Jet Setter leans gourmand-adjacent. It opens with an effervescent burst of fizzy pineapple, mingling effortlessly with lush florals. Imagine yourself in an opulent hotel lobby—marble floors gleaming under soft lighting, high wooden ceilings framing the space, and the fresh ocean breeze carrying the scent of tropical flowers. This isn’t just a fruity fragrance; it’s refined and refreshing, with just a whisper of sweetness—like a perfectly balanced cocktail topped with delicate froth and garnished with a dried pineapple slice.
As it evolves, the fragrance transitions from juicy brightness to a creamy coconut heart. The coconut is seamlessly woven into the composition, blending so beautifully with the florals and fruits that no single note dominates. There’s a touch of salt, a hint of warmth, and an addictive quality that keeps me coming back for more.
The imagery this scent evokes is specific: checking into the Four Seasons Hualalai on the Big Island of Hawaii. You step into the open-air lobby, where guests are greeted with chilled mango Mai Tais, the scent of sunscreen lingers in the air, and relaxed travelers move in flowing linen outfits, unburdened by deadlines or responsibilities. Jet Setter captures that carefree luxury—the intoxicating bliss of knowing you have nowhere to be except exactly where you are.
The first time I wore this fragrance, I stopped by my hairstylist’s salon, and she immediately asked where she could buy it. No need to gatekeep—this is a fragrance that deserves to be shared. It has the sophistication of Tom Ford Soleil Blanc, but where Soleil Blanc leans into thick, creamy sweetness, Jet Setter is its lighter, fresher, more effervescent counterpart—like swapping a decadent tropical dessert for an expertly crafted beachside cocktail.
This is an easy blind buy for lovers of elevated tropical scents, and it’s versatile enough for daily wear—even on a flight, where it won’t overwhelm. Quite frankly, this perfume deserves a spot in high-end department stores worldwide. But for now, it remains a hidden gem, and I’m more than happy to spread the word.
