Bronze Goddess Aegea

I’ve been looking for light, airy, fresh scents for the hottest days of summer, and for that criteria this is an absolute win. On first sniff I find it very evocative; it definitely has those Aegean vibes! The opening is green, a tad citrusy, lots of violet leaf. A touch ozonic. After about 30 minutes it becomes sweeter and creamier, with the coconut milk becoming the dominant note against a background of watery florals. I’ve got to say, I love it. This is a surprise to me as normally I prefer scents that the neighbourhood can smell, and this one is quiet, clean, effortlessly sexy and put-together. It creates an intimate bubble of sweet yet refreshing scent, and never comes anything close to cloying. It’s everything I hoped, and absolutely perfect for summer. It’s not the longest lasting, but tbh I wouldn’t expect it to be; crazy longevity is not the assignment here and I’m happy to respray.

I completely agree with the review below. This scent feels light, watery, and green—with the coconut note leaning toward coconut water rather than coconut milk. It’s elegant and very office-appropriate. It bears ZERO resemblance to the original and doesn’t have any similarity with Philosykos or other fig-dominant perfumes either. I also pick up a tea note. There’s a similarity to Armani Prive Figuier Eden, but this is a more ethereal and dewy take. I have never tried Un Jardin En Mediterranee, but this is what I expect it to smell like. Update: after a few wears, that tea not is definitely becoming more prominent, keeping it earthy. I am now getting the fig and the association with Philosykos, but its faint and fleeting. Update 2: this pairs ridiculously well with LV Imagination

On my skin the fig smells more like a whole tree than just the nectar. It’s very leafy, green, and fresh. A bit of coconut water in the background. I quite like it but it’s definitely more of a fresh, seaside perfume to me than a tropical, coconutty one. That actually makes it a bit more suitable for my climate so I think it’ll be more of an everyday spring/summer scent than one I’d maybe save for vacation.

I feel the OG bronze goddess is a bit sickening and..cloying in a weird way. But this, this is a good one - it's fresh, flowery, citrusy and creamy at the same time. Now with that being said.. this really shines on humid skin. Definitely best in summertime (or for when your skin is hot). The dry down is really good. On me it ́s like "my skin, but muuuch better".

I think this is one of the most realistic fragnances I've ever tried on. No sweetness at all but coconut smell, violet leaf, flowers scents are so realistic and feminine. It is also a different perfume, not basic, but also not ugly like some other different/niche perfumes. Ending is so musky, this is the only thing I didn't like. My rating is 7.5/10
