The Essence Vault Virgin Island Water - 51 is an Eau de Parfum. Virgin Island Water - 51 opens with Lime and Coconut, settles into a heart of Hibiscus and Ylang-Ylang, and dries down to a base of Sugar Cane, Musk, and Rum. The Essence Vault's Virgin Island Water - 51 carries an Acquired verdict, a coconut-led wear.

A sweeter, louder echo of Creed Virgin Island Water's coconut-lime tropical idea - fun and immediately recognisable, but flatter and shorter-lived than the original's more refined, sun-drenched blend.

About

No. 51 recreates the sun-drenched, coconut-forward concept behind Virgin Island Water, opening with creamy coconut milk and zesty lime that instantly reads tropical. Hibiscus and ylang-ylang add a floral lift in the heart, echoing the original's more delicate tropical florals, though the blend here is simpler and pushes sweetness earlier and harder. The rum-and-sugar-cane base captures the boozy, holiday-cocktail feel the original is famous for, but fades faster and with less nuance than Creed's polished drydown. A cheerful, budget-friendly way to wear the coconut-tropical genre through the summer without the designer price tag.
