Leisure in Paradise
A relaxing blend of fruit, coconut, vanilla and woods, Simone Andreoli's Leisure in Paradise smells like a dreamy, papaya and sun cream soaked day at the beach. Vacation in a bottle.
From Simone Andreoli
The time of leisure, of doing nothing and pleasure. Caribbean beaches, white sand, creamy coconut and tender vanilla. Nothing better to enjoy the perfect holiday. Leisure in paradise is the warm Caribbean breeze which blows on Cuba’s shores; saturated with the delicious scent of sun cream and juicy fruit.

Returns
We do not accept returns of perfumes, simply because perfumes can't be resold once they've been opened and used. We encourage you to order samples before purchasing full bottles of perfume. And here's the good news — with every sample purchased, we'll send you a coupon code that allows you to redeem the cost of the sample and sample shipping if you buy a full bottle of the fragrance you tried (in other words, you get $10 off).
Please contact orders@ministryofscent.com if you have a question or issue related to your order or shipping.
Sample Orders
Samples are designed to help you evaluate scents you might want to later purchase as a full bottle. You may order one sample per fragrance, up to 15 total in a single order. Samples are non-refundable.
For sample orders, please check your packing slip for a special code that will allow you to redeem the price of samples and sample shipping when purchase full bottles of the scents you sample ($10 off full bottles).
Complimentary Samples
We provide complimentary samples with $75+ full bottle purchases. You may request up to 3 samples with any qualifying order. Please use the Order Note section on the Shopping Cart overlay to let us know which complimentary samples you would like. We'll try to provide the scents you've requested, but substitutions may occur if items are out of stock.
Very soft and pleasant smell. Creamy with hints of coconut milk and vanilla. It smells like vacation. 🥥🌴
I've tried a lot of coconut/beach themed scents. Most of which end up smelling very similarly, or falling a little flat.
This has a gorgeous coconut papaya top note, and the dry down is shockingly smooth. It doesn't smell fruity as it wears, it has a very warm musk. Someone said it smelled like a latte, and I'd say that's not far off.
Definitely repurchasing.
This is exactly what I was looking for in a summer perfume for everyday wear. It’s juicy, sweet, and tropical. I would say this is less “vacation-y” than Malibu-party in the bay, almost a more mature version that isn’t so heavy on the lime and is more juicy. This definitely lends more on the creamy, juicy side than the tart, bright side that Malibu scents to be for me. Personally love and I can smell it the next day. Will be getting the larger size eventually!
A very subtle scent, utterly lacking the professed papaya notes. Rather than a beachy Caribbean scent, this smells exactly like white chocolate, coconut, and vanilla. It is the latte of perfumes.
