Brown Sugar

Fresh Brown Sugar, Fresh Sugar Lemon, and Fresh Sugar are all sweet and very lemony scents. Is the lemon in each of them the same? ABSOLUTELY NOT. You would think that Fresh's lemon note would be consistent across the line, while the notes around the lemon changed according to each scent. Strangely, the difference between each of these lemons is huge. I did a side by side comparison of all three in order to eliminate any confusion (I was confused), since the names are so similar. Here's what I found out: Brown Sugar- A glorious natural refreshing lemonade scent. This lemon is awesome. It is so pleasant and comforting, I want to drink it or dump it over my head. How do you think my hair got so light? Sugar Lemon- UGH!! totally revolting. I cannot believe Fresh thought this smelled okay, considering they also made Brown Sugar. Smells like lemon dish detergent. Bitter and depressing if somewhat nostalgic. No Thanks! Fresh Sugar- Like a cross between Brown Sugar and Sugar Lemon. Not nearly as pleasant as Brown Sugar, but in no way as chemical smelling as Sugar Lemon. There's no reason to opt for Fresh Sugar if Brown Sugar is also available. For me, Brown Sugar is unquestionably the best of the three, and very FB worthy.

You don't understand the existential crisis I experienced when I asked for this fragrance from the same duty-free store in the same airport I bought it from years later just to get looks of confusion and weirded out from the store assistants as they told me that this perfume does not exist, and they only have Sugar Lychee. It is, without a doubt, my first love in a glass. Though I broke the container long ago, I still salvage the remaining liquid and put it in a small spray container. ever since I discovered it's discontinued, I have refused to use it until today. It's sweet and fresh, it is giving unapologetically graceful and effortlessly charismatic. This perfume radiates the vibes of people who know how to find joy in the simplest things in life and in everything they do. it's so unique I couldn't find anything like it on the market.

I tried Brown Sugar on a whim and was expecting a generic sweet fragrance. I was however pleasantly surprised by the soft yet distinctive lemon note in this as well as the caramel that arise in the dry-down. Fresh Brown Sugar is a beautiful, linear scent that is very refreshing. On me, this fragrance is surprisingly long lasting, about 8 hours. It gets closer to the skin after 5 hours, and stay put even on hot sweaty day. This is my go to fragrance for very hot summer days, when I know I will do physical work or simply after the shower at night because this is soft and nice. I own a rollerball but once empty I will definitively get the full bottle.

Nice to know I am not the only one who misses this fragrance dearly. The only memory I have, I am 27 now- I must have had it when I was around 17/18 years old- is that I never wanted to run out of it. I purchased this with my hard earned money and all I know is I loved it and have never found anything quite like it since. It tickled something inside of me- the kind of perfume you hold up to your nose to smell all day long. It was comforting- Unique, young, clean, fruity in the freshest way- that is all I remember, and I hope someday to find a dupe or maybe they will bring it back :(

This is such a gorgeous scent! It is a grown up sugary citrus burst of goodness. The silage is great, around 5-6 hours. This is one of my favorite fragrances as it’s so uplifting and refreshing, it’s also amazing to spray in the morning to wake you up. To me it smells exactly like a freshly squeezed lemonade with a heap of sugar. It’s such a great fragrance for anyone that loves fresh citrus scents and has a sweet tooth! Highly recommend:)
