My new summer fragrance!

I was at the mall on Sunday and while standing in front of the Estee Lauder counter the SA had me try their new summer fragrance, Bronze Goddess.  It was love at first sniff!  This smells just like a day at the beach should!  I love that it comes in an oil as well as a perfume - I can't stand wearing lotion in the summer heat so I am always on the lookout for nice oils. 

The notes included in this fragrance are...coconut milk, sandalwood, vanilla, vetiver, myrrh, amber, mandarin, bergamot, lemon, orange, tiare flower, jasmine, magnolia, orange blossom and lavender.  I just smell beach vacation!

I sprayed it on my arm to test it on Sunday and when I woke up on Monday morning I checked and could still smell it!  I love that it lasts so long!

The bottle looks and feels like it was pulled out of the sand!

I cant wait to sit around my pool sipping a summer cocktail with this fragrance surrounding me!


Have a fabulous day!

**No, I wasn't compensated for this review - I wish!**

I'm with you. Wearing lotion in the summer heat just makes me sweat like some dock worker. And this sounds so cool. I love the idea of a drop of oil...

It sounds amazing and looks inciting to say the least! I've been a Cinnabar gal for years but next time I'm at the Estee counter, I'll take a whiff. Heck, sometimes a girl needs a change.

Ya'll have a wonderfully blessed day!!!

OH MY...didn't know about it...BUT I"M THE LUCKY ONE....my son used to work in the distribution plant of Estee Lauder/Northtec in PA and we are able to shop in the company store for a BIG BIG discount!
I HOPE THEY HAVE IT THERE! I'll be in touch if I could score me a FEW bottles!

I agree , oils are better than lotions in summer! The fragrance sounds beautiful ... I will check it out, it sounds like a nice scent to wear to a BBQ or outdoor function.

Yum! I will have to check that out. My summer staple is Bobbi Brown's Beach fragrance. It's the only fragrance I've ever re-purchased, and I'm about due to get another bottle. I love the smell of summer.
