For Summer of 2014, Estée Lauder has released a limited edition fragrance called the Bronze Goddess Eau Fraiche Skinscent. A perfect embodiment of a relaxing day on a tropical beach, Bronze Goddess is a beautiful blend of creamy and exotic florals, citrus, coconut, and vanilla.To read more about this scent, click.......
Bottle Design:
Bronze Goddess Eau Fraiche comes in a classic rectangular bottle with a gold chrome finish. The bottle can be opaque or see-through depending on how the light hits it, which I think is quite neat. The cap has a very pretty matte/shiny gold striped design.
The Scent:
For me, Bronze Goddess feels like the quintessential tropical summer fragrance. Interestingly though, it is a very unique scent that I don't think I have ever encountered.
Top Notes: Mandarin, Bergamot, Lemon, Orange
Middle Notes: Tiare Flower, Jasmine, Magnolia, Orange Flower Buds, Lavender
Base Notes: Amber, Coconut, Sandalwood, Vanilla, Vetiver, Myrrh
Despite the extensive list of ingredients, the scent doesn't change much over time. Even upon the first whiff, I get a rich blend of amber and florals. To me, the citrus top notes are hardly noticeable and the coconut and vanilla, although present, only provides a warm and sweet undertone to the florals and woody notes. The fragrance wears about four hours and the scent overall is very warm and inviting, totally befitting its "Bronze Goddess" name.
Availability:
Estee Lauder is available at Hudson’s Bay, Holt Renfrew, Shoppers Drug Mart, Murale, Sephora, Nordstrom, and esteelauder.ca.
