Electric

This is a under the radar gem that cost's $20 US. This is a Maison Lancome Figues & Agrumes dupe. Probably a Dyptique Philosykos dupe as they have similar note break down. When I saw I could get this same fresh scent at a fraction of the price I had to try it and it is really good. It's so close to F&A the only difference is this has way more lime citrus in the opening so it's extremely refreshing even way more than my Dolce & Gabbana Italian Zest that has a bunch of lemon in it..this packs a punch! And the green woody grassy fig notes are not as in the forefront as F&G. But I will say that I love that about F&G because I love green scents and F&G is denser and stays consistent all the way through. These fragrances both last and are so enjoyable but I think most would lean more to Agent Provocateur's Electric because it's not as punch you in the face green as that can be a note not everyone loves. As electric dries down you smell more of the green fig leaves and woodiness. The creaminess of the fig is there but not as much as in Figues & Agrumes where it feels slightly like it has coconuts in it. So there are little different nuances in this but they are almost like 95% dupes for sure. Do not miss out on this. I love this and its worth a buy and perfect for this time of the year in spring! I may have to get back up's it's that refreshing and such a good citrus scent.

This is hands down the most beautiful citrus fragrance I've ever smelled (yes, it beats light blue by miles - and I love light blue). It's an unbelievable bargain and you sure do get your moneys worth! I'm pretty sure it's discontinued but is still to be found on ebay etc. for a ridiculous low price for a 100ml bottle. Go grab one! Its lack of popularity is a true mystery to me, but looking at its sisters (the sultry, sexy, smoky perfumes from the same brand) I can understand why this one is a bit of an outsider. But like all outsiders, it has its very own shine - and does this shine! It's so niche that it doesn't get any more niche than this for a citrus scent. It's sparkly citrus, bitter and sweet at the very same time. It's simply amazing. Expensive lemonade and even better! Picture this: You are on a long get-away at the mediterranean sea in a small, cozy town with the person you love. It's hard to tell what time of the day it is, cause the sun is high all day and the warm breeze is lightly moving your hair as you stand in a beautiful light outfit on the balcony with a sea view. You are surrounded by purple and fuchsia coloured flowers. It's the most beautiful scenerie and like in a movie. The days are lazy, you are carefree and all you want is for this moment to last forever. That's where this perfume takes me. I've stocked up with 4 bottles. I LOVE this!

Electric is a long lasting, milky fig emboldened by a bright infusion of fresh lime and I love it! After about 30 minutes on my skin, the initial zesty acidity of lime fades just a bit while the fig note becomes less milky and more "figgy". I think lime clarifies and amplifies fig in Electric in much the same way squeezing a wedge of lime over certain foods enhances those dishes, sometimes lifting them from good to great. Such is the case here. I don't own many linear fragrances so the first couple of times I wore Electric I was prepared for the blend I loved at first sniff to fade and morph into something else, leaving me with a disappointing dry down. Like when you meet a delightful person at the start of a party but watch them drink so much they turn into someone you hope never again to encounter. I'm pleased to report that didn't happen with Electric: Miss Fig leaves the party hours later as sober, fresh and delightful as when she first arrived. Discontinued already, no doubt because it's so very different from most AP fragrances, excepting Cosmic (which is also discontinued), 100ml bottles of Electric are currently available for less than $22.00 USD on-line. For lovers of fig, IMO, it's a "must have". Electric is THE BEST and least expensive blind buy I made in 2019. And yes, I bought a back-up!

It's very fresh, and I feel like it's a unique citrus, and not just a sweet zingy blast... This is what bright smells like. And it sort of reminds me of the smell of a nice sushi bar- NOT fishy, whatsoever- I don't think that good sushi smells like fish. I think it's ginger? Ginger is not listed as a note, but maybe that's the fig that's crossing my wires? I smell a similarity to Mugler's Womanity, so it might be the fig, but it's less shrieky. Womanity is a masterpiece if I wear it behind my knees and ankles ( even if sprayed heavily,) and a nightmare if it's sprayed any higher. Electric is much more subtle, and not nearly powerful enough to require any such specific guidelines, but it bears a good enough resemblance to Womanity that I'm willing to love it. I sprayed it all over my sweater this morning and I'm really happy about it. I kept picking up a coconut note at first- there's no coconut mentioned...but I think fig just comes across oddly to me? I think it's the most unique scent from Agent Provocateur I've smelled so far. I'm happy with this blind buy! The more I smell it the more I like it! This is another one that would smell fantastic on a man or a woman, of any age.

So glad that I waited for this to be available in the States. This is lime central. But not a bitter zesty citrus, more of a lime PEZ. This has mainly lime with some lemon, lots of sugared sweetness, some bergamot. No fruity fig, sandalwood or amber that I detect in the top but then as it dries down, sandalwood is present. In the top, there was a burst that reminded me of vetiver or petitgrain but that quickly faded. Probably the bergamot. Very pretty for summer and different than all the other citrus frags out there. I wish there was some fig present with the citrus. There might be a hint of it in the base if I stretch my imagination. It was pretty shocking to find an AP fragrance with no rose in it.
