Short Story Long

This is a fragrance that smolders. It’s rich, warm, and transportive—not in a sugary, cocktail-on-the-beach way, but in the way a slow-burning fire glows under a sky streaked with the last embers of daylight. It’s tropical, sure, but not in the obvious, sunscreen-and-fruity-drink sense. No, this is the scent of heat rising off skin, of salt drying on sun-bronzed shoulders, of something wild humming just beneath the surface.

A deep, musky sweetness lingers, threaded with the bite of sun-scorched spice and the kind of warmth that clings long after the night fades. It’s the air after the storm. There’s a whisper of resin and vanilla, not the cupcake kind, but the kind aged in barrels and cracked open under moonlight.

It doesn’t ask for attention—it owns it. It rolls in like a slow, confident riff, a little dark, a little reckless, leaving a trace of heat and mystery in its wake. This isn’t just a scent—it’s an atmosphere, a mood, a damn good story waiting to be told.

Consider Wearing This...

In a convertable with the top down.

On a beach...with the top down.

When you dream of the heat of summer.

When you are the heat of summer.

A rum cocktail without smelling like alcohol. Dark and warm with tropical twist. Vanilla comes in with the coconut and a few transparent florals that add a touch of brightness. An island getaway in a bottle. Take me back!

The Dry Down is Worth It!

I’m not a sweet fragrance person most of the time and the discovery sets have been amazing to try the brand out. Holiday is a nice middle ground for me. The opening is a bit too sweet for maybe a half hour but the dry down was beautiful! It lasted all day and I loved getting the wafts of rummy vanilla and tonka throughout the day. Great for the hot SoCal summer and I’m going to enjoy my sample while I have it this season!

A vacation to remember

Holiday is a beautifully warm and intoxicating departure from the typical beachy coconut fragrance. It’s inviting, cozy, and somehow manages to feel both sun-drenched and comforting—like golden hour by a seaside bonfire. MDA has a way of bottling “warmth” better than almost anyone, and this is no exception. The toasted coconut and spiced Jamaican rum greet you with a delicious, heady embrace—rich but not cloying. That warmth melts into creamy vanilla and tonka, all anchored by a soft, smoldering woodiness that brings to mind pimento wood crackling gently by the beach. It’s cozy, but also fresh and open, like a breeze rolling off the ocean at dusk. Perfectly balanced and truly unique. It’s the feeling of a sun-warmed memory, lingering long after the sun goes down.

Great scent but I wish it lasted longer on my skin.

I wish I loved this.

I wanted to love this. But I don't. I wanted a scent that smelled like a vacation in a bottle, and this does. But I don't like how this smells on me. This lasts a long time and it's a good holiday in a bottle without smelling too coconutty, but it didn't work for me. But still, this is a great scent if this is your vibe
