Bronze Goddess alternative

27 replies

fleaflyflo · 23/04/2018 07:24

I like the coconut/summery notes in Estee Lauder's Bronze Goddess but find it overpoweringly sweet.

Looking for alternatives which will still give that "sun tan lotion" vibe without smelling like a sweet shop Grin

Try Nuxe the perfume.

ChardonnaysPrettySister · 23/04/2018 07:41

Also Bobbi Brown Beach oil.

SporkInTheToaster · 23/04/2018 07:47

Second the Nuxe fragrance, suggested by Chardonnay

Asitgoes · 23/04/2018 07:50

Jil Sander Sun is amazing, altho' not that easy to get hold of. I got mine duty free at Amsterdam airport for €20 - I like a bargainWink. It's replaced bronze goddess for me

SporkInTheToaster · 23/04/2018 07:59

Also Tom Ford Orchid Soleil

Yy soliel blanc

This is a cheaper version of the nuxe perfume. Even though it’s described as ‘fragrant water’ I still find the scent v long lasting.

Plus 25% off at the mo which probably includes the perfume too

HeyDolly · 23/04/2018 08:12

33% off not 25%!

HeyDolly · 23/04/2018 08:12

Next do a version of bronze goddess too but i found the scent only lasted 5 mins on me.

Gunpowder · 23/04/2018 08:18

Le labo Lys 41 smells like gorgeous expensive sunscreen to me! It’s very white flowers heavy though, so avoid if you aren’t a tuberose fan.

justaweeone · 23/04/2018 08:49

I wear Bronze Goddess, but also wear this. It's also more minty!

BuntyCollocks · 23/04/2018 10:11

The next one, summer sun I think it’s called, is lovely - it’s more a dupe of tom Ford soliel blanc, which bronze goddess is very similar to. I don’t find it as sweet as bronze goddess.

BuntyCollocks · 23/04/2018 10:12

@justaweeone where do you buy/smell and how much is it please? Love a good summery perfume.

BuntyCollocks · 23/04/2018 10:12

Oh yes - Bobbi Brown beach is beautiful.

LibertyBlue · 23/04/2018 10:26

Bunty great tip re: next Perfume. I have a FB of 4160 Tuesdays WIDOMH. I love it but only wear it in summer. It’s minty, coconut sea breeze with vanilla ice cream - weird but in a very good way! It’s so refreshing. I think mumsnet is planning a Q&Q thread with the perfumer Sarah so look out for it.

CointreauVersial · 23/04/2018 17:24

Next Summer Sun

cannaethink · 23/04/2018 20:12

I’ve got Next summer sun too, it lasts all day on me.

It's not your usual run of the mill perfume
They sometimes go one off offers as well

justaweeone · 23/04/2018 20:13

Sorry was meant for BUNTY Blush

Ellapaella · 23/04/2018 20:13

Next do a dupe for bronze goddess.

Timefortea99 · 23/04/2018 20:14

Sun do Gioa - Armani

Ellapaella · 23/04/2018 20:14

It's called summer sun as someone further up thread has said.
