Bronze Goddess
Bronze Goddess by Estée Lauder is a feminine-leaning eau de toilette from 2007 in the designer price tier. It opens with bergamot and mandarin, moves into tiare, jasmine and coconut and dries down to vanilla, amber and white musk. Expect around 6 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
Heart
- Tiare Creamy tropical white flower. Suntan lotion, in the best way.
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
- Coconut Creamy and tropical. Suncream in the best possible way.
Dry-down
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
- White Musk Clean, soft, laundry-like. The 'smells like nothing but better' note.
