Bronze Goddess Eau de Parfum 2019

Beachy, gorgeous, warm, exotic, tropical, lush, floral, softly sweet, slightly woody, luxurious, sensual, feminine, chic, elegant, luminous, transportive, nostalgic On me this opens with fresh tropical coconut and exotic and sweet Tiare flower. It’s a fairly linear fragrance, but as it dries down I notice the warm, sweet, and sensual vanilla, the golden warmth of the amber, and the creamy woody scent of the sandalwood a bit more prominently. The notes that are the most prominent on me throughout the wear are the coconut and Tiare flower. I absolutely adore Bronze Goddess, and I’ve owned it for several years. It’s always been such an easy summertime reach for me. It’s something that I plan to always keep in my collection. It has such a beautiful monoi oil scent to it (I love the smell of monoi oil!), but with more depth than just your basic monoi oil. I also get a soft high end sun tan lotion scent only more chic and elegant. It’s a really nice balance because you get that sun tan lotion scent, but it’s not overwhelming, it’s more delicate instead. The overall vibe I get is of a luxurious tropical beach with sun warming bare skin, warm golden sand, and watching a bright sunny sky become a beautiful sunset over the ocean. This feels very feminine to me, and like it would suit women of any age. I prefer wearing this the most during the late spring and summer, but it’s also nice if you want that beachy vibe during the colder weather too. I think this is suitable for pretty much any occasion including work and/or school. To me, it’s basically a classic, and it’s very hard to go wrong with (as long as you enjoy these kind of beachy/coconut fragrances). I get great performance with Bronze Goddess. The longevity is really good, it lasts the majority of the day on me. The projection is nice, it radiates out about an arm’s length from me For some reference, some of my other favorite beachy/coconut fragrances include Tom Ford Soleil Blanc, Nest Sunkissed Hibiscus, Yves Rocher Monoi Eau des Vahines, Kilian Sunkissed Goddess, Replica Beach Walk, JHAG Lust For Sun, JHAG Vanilla Vibes, Bobbi Brown Beach, Kayali Maui in a Bottle, B&BW Coco Paradise

I got this in a sample size for Christmas 2020. I waited til summer 2021 to use it and from first spritz I just fell in love!! Once I started I couldn't stop...i wore it everywhere....day and night. It didn't take long to use the bottle up. And the heat just does something to it - illuminates it, intensifies and refreshes it! I would describe this scent as equal parts coconut, vanilla, tiare flower and amber. I would also describe it as similar to Bath and Body Works Sensual Amber but crossed with coconut. Though lighter and not as cloying as Sensual Amber. Now every time I sniff my (empty☹️) bottle it has me nostalgic for hot lazy summer afternoons spent visiting my grandmother and drinking Dunkin' Donuts iced coffee...and sitting on the porch with my son counting the number of boxcars together as the freight train thunders by... I'm very much an Autumn girl but this perfume gets me so nostalgic for heat and lightning bugs and twilight strolls around town... So many perfumes give me a headache but this one, surprisingly, does not. This is one I would repurchase, no questions asked, and would have no problem going through an entire bottle. I would consider this 1 of my 2 signature summer scents!🥥🍦🌼 (#2 would be Heiress by Paris Hilton for a lighter, fruitier summer scent.) Since I love this one so much, I would also love to try some of the other Bronze Goddess perfumes!

okay, i got very surprised when i tried this perfume because this smells like creamy, powdery lavender to me. It's a very clean scent and not sweet as it was described by many. I can also detect the vanilla in the background, but it's mostly freshness on my nose. I love it a lot, it's definitely a heat-friendly fragrance that any woman of any age can rock. It's the kind of scent that can be your signature, at least where i live, cause it doesn't seem popular, so it's unique. Extra specific, BUT it smells just like the Starbucks ice macha tea latte with lavender, JUST like it!!! and i happen to love this drink, so i love the perfume too hahahahh Edit: It took a bit of time on me to become a sweet scent. Maybe it was cause the bottle was used for the first time that i didn't get the sweetness at first. Now i smell creamy, sweet coconut and vanilla. It's SO juicy and delicious. Perfect for summer, either for day or night. 10/10. If you know someone who loves sweet perfumes (yourself or a friend), it's a safe buy imo. Just be careful not to spray too much. Two spritz are enough when it comes to hot weather. Just make sure to use a good moisturizer before you spray your body so that the scent lasts longer.

This is such a gem to me. Absolute love at first sniff! I have been eyeing this one for awhile now but didn’t want to blind buy in case I didn’t like it, however, I stopped by Ulta today and someone had accidentally left a sale sign up so I got it discounted and figured today was the day! I have zero regrets. This smell magically transforms me into a 125 lb beautiful, slender, tan, “bronze goddess” (in my mind, anyway haha). The name is very fitting, in my opinion. The smell of this transports me to a secluded island with coconuts and the scent of tropical flowers in the breeze. I don’t get any creamy suntan lotiony smell (which I wouldn’t be opposed to if I did). It’s not a “clean” or “fresh” beach smell. I also don’t get citrus. It’s pretty, simply put. I can definitely smell the similarities in comparison to YSL Black Opium - but to me BO is great for cooler nights whereas this reminds me of a day in the sun. Great longevity and silliage without being overpowering and smothering. I have found my summer scent! I really did not want to be curious about the skinscent version but I love this so much it may be worth checking into as well.

This took me completely by surprise. I had seen a few reviews, and it was generally well liked and positive, so I tried it at a store recently...OBSESSED! So a full bottle was purchased and I haven't looked back. I'm not into coconut fragrances usually (the odd exception like Alien Goddess Intense...interesting coincidence in the name) but this is just gorgeous and by far my fave. A perfect mix of vanilla and coconut with a touch of white flowers makes this a gorgeous tropical and bright fragrance. The dry down is where it's really at though. That smooth coconut and vanilla blend makes it edible. It's just delicious. I had sprayed this on one chilly morning while still wearing my dressing gown and the next morning as I put my coat on again, that scent just wafted out like a welcoming hug. Haven't worn anything else over the last week since. I'm even happy to say this could be a signature scent for me. Its not a long lasting fragrance on the skin, maybe a couple hours, but it is on clothes. Like it's hard to wash it out. I don't mind though 😍

Beachy, gorgeous, and elegant! One of my favorite warm weather fragrances! Bronze Goddess gives off the most beautiful beachy vibe! I really love the coconut and Tiare flower notes in this and how they stand out! It has a really pretty sun tan lotion scent only better and more chic! It reminds me of Bobbi Brown Beach (which I do love!), but I think it’s softer, more sweet, and more elegant! I truly adore this one! I’ve owned this for years and rotate it regularly during the warmer weather months along with Tom Ford Soleil Blanc, Replica Beach Walk, Nest Sunkissed Hibiscus, JHAG Lust For Sun, and JHAG Vanilla Vibes! I think it fits in quite nicely with these others I mentioned! They’re all similar and beachy, but have their own uniqueness! I get great performance with Bronze Goddess! The longevity is excellent, it lasts the entire day on me! The projection is great too, it radiates out at least an arm’s length from me!

Initial smell is warm, citrusy, and coconutty. It reminds me of the sea and the beach, on a summer's day, but it doesn't smell like sunscreen to me - maybe because I've never used any type of coconut scented sunscreen. Then after a few hours, the coconut fades away, and what remains discernible is the warmth and citrusy element, and an element of fresh soapiness. It never veers very sweet smelling for me so the vanilla/amber doesn't appear strong for me. It never gets headache-y for me, is really pleasant from the start to finish. I really enjoy this fragrance. However, longevity isn't very strong for me either. After the first 4 hours, most the fragrance has gone. It's nearly winter now and spraying this on when I go out now adds a little bit of summery warmth to my mood. A lovely, warming smell.

One of my favourites! Yes, it's a summer fragrance and yes, this bottle hides tropical sceneries inside. What makes it different is that it's giving "filthy" and eccentric vibes. Great longevity, even eau Fraiche version is strong enough. I get compliments in every corner. Not a perfume for those who hate oriental, a bit sour or weird scents. inspiration in words: "Your moods this summer are off the charts. You're in everything, but also nowhere. You're great at your job, but as soon as you walk through the door, you change. You hold a dirty martini and stare into space. You don't know what you want, what will happen, and you don't care. You only know that this summer will be eccentric and you will have stories to tell".

The BG line is becoming rather confusing with all of the bottle designs and flankers. The eau de parfum is very much a dusk or night time summer scent for a night out. Intoxicating, richer, sexy, etc. Similar in many ways to other popular perfumes at the moment. I think it needs more of the vibe from the Skinscent. If they'd just added a touch more orange blossom, tiare, or coconut and less amber and vanilla. It does seem to be holding up and on it's own. I will give it that... when many summer perfumes are fleeting in the heat. Update: My husband is currently mowing the lawn and texted that he could smell my perfume. I have not been outside, so on this particular day (the last of summer) it has incredible sillage!

I love this. It is a "sun tan" fragrance but I am a sucker for a coconut scent in the summertime. The first time I smelled this was in the lotion form. It was more than id usually ever spend on lotion but I literally could not stop smelling it. This is so soft and cozy to me. It is like taking a mid-afternoon nap in some beach side bungalow where you're wrapped up in one of those huge knitted blankets. Sometimes coconut scents can be headache inducing or overly sweet but this one is just right. Unfortunately I feel like the most recent version doesn't have the same longevity as past years. I would not mind buying a full sized bottle of this with the current longevity if the price was more on the mark.

Bronze Goddess exceeds any and all other summer fragrances I own. I try to use up others like Hibiscus Palm and Coconut Vanille but its Bronze Goddess which I prefer every summer. I am guessing that the sandalwood in the base grounds the other tropical notes which keeps it from being cloying. Its the overall fun, beachy vibe which I love. I dont get any vintage vibes like others get. I do get a very slight soapiness in the dry down which I enjoy. I think this one either works well on your skin or doesnt. I have just ordered a back up bottle since it seems the perfume world is getting a bit upredictable and since this one always makes me smile in summer time I always want to have it on hand.

I have a number of Bronze Goddess flankers, which I love wearing, but I had never actually worn Bronze Goddess itself - even though I have a bottle which is a few years old. But I decided to finally open the bottle and try it, and I am in love. It, to me, is simply divine. It is so well balanced - I frequently find tiare can be overwhelming, giving a slightly boozy aspect to any perfume it is in, but here it sits in harmony with the other notes. Although marketed as a beach, summer perfume, for me I could use this throughout the year - there is a certain warmth and cosiness from the tiare and coconut that I think would work well in winter.

Bronze Goddess has such a strong positive reputation, that I decided to see what it’s like! Well I am very impressed! The vanilla and coconut are the dominant notes and are done very beautifully. A strong secondary player is the amber. The amber grounds the fragrance and makes it very classy. This is a beach fragrance that can be worn into the evening and can also be worn away from the beach! I love wearing this fragrance on its own, but I also love to layer it with Guerlain Terracotta. In Terracotta, tiare is the star and when it mixes with the dominant coconut and vanilla from Bronze Goddess, the combination is stunning!

This is the best coconut vanilla scent! It’s summertime in a bottle but it could work in wintertime as well because of the vanilla, sandalwood and amber base, it’s absolutely gorgeous with the very coconutty top note with Tiare flower its perfection. I love the simplicity, when you can smell all the notes and not wait for a dry down. It’s an easy reach, a great daily scent and a fantastic blind buy but I looked online the Estée Lauder site and they don’t sell the EDP anymore which is so saddening! Why are they constantly reformulating and discontinuing! That is my only complaint...don’t be like Dior Estée!

SUMMER IN A BOTTLE. She is gorgeous, she is grace, and she is the most delicious warm coconut treat in a bottle. I got this perfume as a sample, and finished it so quickly that I even surprised myself. My obsession with this scent lead me to sniffing the empty bottle which was a clear sign to purchase the full size. Couldn't be more happy to have her in my life as this is now my holy grail summer scent. Made me fall in love with coconut again after being a hater initially. Perfection!!!!!

Going off of the notes I was excited for this as it encompasses everything I love. Before purchasing I had read many reviews and it seems to get a mixed reaction. For me this is a hit, it was everything I wanted and more. I get the coconut, the vanilla the Amber and on my skin the dry down is beautiful. It’s got great sillage and staying power. I can’t wait to wear on vacation! If you like gourmands and the notes are your vibe, don’t let the negative reviews put you off.

This is my first bronze goddess, I expected her to be more intense with more stamina, after the first spray she is distinctive, but very quickly she stabilises and I perceive only flowers lightly with coconut. I can imagine her on vacation even with a stronger application from morning to night, therefore she was created for the summer, the truth is that the identity with The one is there. I also own a skin set where the coconut smells much more and is much airier.

Imagine you are on a vacation in some country that is very hot, In a hotel that has its own beach with turqouise crystal waters, wearing your favorite bikini. You just applied your sunscreen cream. You see the sun is shining glittery on the sea waves. The friendly hotel staff brings you your pina colada you just ordered. Your favorite book is by your side. Sun warmths your skin, that coctail is yummy, life is just fine by the beach. She smell like this scenery.

EDP - utterly gorgeous, sweet honeyed spice, reminiscent of Bvlgari Goldea, and a fabulous winter scent for the build up to xmas, almost gourmand. EDT - utterly gorgeous, hot oiled tanned skin on a fabulous beach holiday, coconut and tiare flowers, sensual and stunning summer scent. I love both but they are two entirely different perfumes, I really don't know why they gave them the same name and bottle!

I blind bought this scent and I’m definitely satisfied with my purchase. The longevity was 6/7 hours on me. You are able to smell it at least a arms distant away. The coconut/sunscreen smell comes out within 30 mins of being on. It doesn’t smell cheap or plastic like on me. I also paired it with my bom dia body butter and it was perfect for the 85 degree weather today.
