It's a little funny about the fragrance, I don't really think it smells like coconut, but I can't say what it does smell like. I like to have people guess what the orchid smells like--maybe one out of 6 say coconut outright, everyone else mostly guesses vanilla or something else. But once I tell them it is also called a coconut orchid, they say yes, of course it smells like coconut!

Yes, the coconut scent of sun tan lotion or coconut rum is common. More intense than actual coconut in my experience.

I agree. The smell that I detect is not that of coconut but I can't tell what it is.
