Island Very Bali

The hiss of an ocean breeze through palm fronds, where salty air meets a bouquet of white flowers and soft woods.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2011 by Michael Kors, Island Very Bali is a Floral Aquatic fragrance that captures the essence of a balmy tropical escape. The composition opens with marine and salty accords, evoking the fresh, crisp air at the water's edge. This gives way to a heart of white florals and rose, which provide a delicate yet vibrant bouquet. The woody base notes anchor the scent, grounding it in earthy warmth that lingers long after the initial freshness has faded.

How to wear it

Apply Island Very Bali in light layers — the marine top notes are bright but fade quickly. The floral heart and woody base develop gradually, so it's best to let the scent evolve naturally over time. Ideal for daytime wear when you want a fresh, yet enduring presence.
