“She gives great advice. Yes,” the Friends alum said of Coco, 20, who inspired the brand’s Cocomoi collection, released earlier this year. “When I was doing the mood board for Cocomoi, I told her the idea of what I wanted,” Cox recalled, explaining that she thought it should look “green and wet and woody.”

“I collected a lot of different things and I gave Coco a few choices, hoping she would pick one that I knew I would use,” she said. “And it is.”
While the mother-daughter duo may agree on fragrance, there is one area where they differ.
Cox, who is a self-proclaimed “clean freak” like her icon Friends character told PEOPLE last month that Coco “doesn’t” share her passion for organizing and cleaning.
“Every once in a while she’ll say, ‘Mommy, I cleaned my room and I feel so good.’ And I say, ‘That’s a feeling you can have all the time,’ but it just doesn’t happen,” Cox said.
“She’s getting older and living on her own, and she’s proud of it, which I think is a good thing,” Cox added. “But no, I don’t think she has my gene in the same way that I don’t have hers. Listen, she’s a great singer. She is a great writer. She has so many qualities that I don’t have, so that’s fine.”
