Little-known Estée Lauder Bronze Goddess perfume that's cheaper than the original
Share:
There are few fragrances worthy of Perfume Hall of Fame status, but Estée Lauder's Bronze Goddess is one of them. This warm, coconutty, vanilla-rich floral scent is one of the bestselling summer fragrances, and it's easy to see why. Since it launched in 2008, Estée Lauder has launched a few spinoff and limited-edition Bronze Goddess scents, all with similar notes to the original (tiare flower, coconut, amber, sandalwood and vanilla) but with slight twists. I've tried them all and this one (now a permanent edition) is, I think, the best of the bunch – and it's cheaper than the orginal.
Bronze Goddess Nuit Eau de Parfum is a slightly more sultry, sensual version, yet still has warm, beachy vibes of the much-loved classic. Its fragrance notes include bergamot essence, ylang ylang and pepper, along with coconut and white florals like the orginal Eau Fraiche.

For me, it's my go-to perfume when I want to be reminded of sunnier days, a grown up 'solar scent' (or sun cream scent), a fragrance trend that has become popular in recent years, especially in summer. Bronze Goddess Nuit is available to buy in 50ml and 100ml bottles from retailers including Boots, John Lewis and Lookfantastic, although the cheapest place you'll currently find it is on Sephora, where it's currently £49 instead of the usual £70 – that's a saving of 30%.
