Perfume that smells like suntan lotion.

SmartyPants0 · 27/06/2020 22:21

I recently saw a perfume advertised that was made by a well-known suntan lotion company but can't for the life of me remember who it was. It apparently smelt like their suntan lotion. I popped into boots today and no one knew what I was talking about and i can no longer find it advertised anywhere. Did i dream it... please help me out if you know what I'm on about.
If it helps it comes in a yellow bottle. Thank you.

Hawaiian Tropic? I think that was mentioned on here recently, not used it myself.

peppermintteadrinker · 27/06/2020 22:23

Nivea!

Hawaiian tropic does smell nice.

If there was one that smelt like after sun I'd be really excited!

Mouthfulofquiz · 27/06/2020 22:24

I think I have seen an advert for a Nivea sun frangrance recently - maybe its that?

TheVanguardSix · 27/06/2020 22:25

I wish Nivea After Sun was a perfume. I love the smell of it!

PenelopePitstop49 · 27/06/2020 22:27

It's not the one you're asking for, but Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess is a gorgeous smell - just like suntan lotion.

I think you mean this one

Just found Nivea Sun. apparently it's only available on Amazon...and it's sold out. Gutted.

LilyLocket · 27/06/2020 22:37

There is a Nivea Sun EDT but I’ve never come across it in this country, and I think it’s discontinued.

These are all fairly Sun tan lotiony:

Lancaster Eau de Soin
Jill Sander Sun
Estée Lauder Bronze Goddess Eau Fraiche
Estée Lauder Azuree Soleil
Bobbi Brown Beach

Next Summer Sun

udnertheradar · 27/06/2020 23:22

I bought the Nivea sun. It does smell really good!

ArtieFufkinPolymerRecords · 28/06/2020 09:25

The Nivea perfume is back in stock on Amazon.

totallynotchanging · 28/06/2020 10:09

Perfume parlour will probably have something very similar to all the scents mentioned above. And much less £££.

SomethingAboutNothing · 28/06/2020 10:49

Next do a dupe of the Estee Lauder one mentioned, smells so good and I couldn't tell the difference.

Jill sander Sun
Was going to suggest this. I lived in Germany in the late 1990s and wore this and bought from amazon (not expensive) for nostalgia. It has a very sunny fragrance.

4160 Tuesdays so Sunshine and Pancakes and What I Did on my Holidays, both suntan lotiony - and they do samples for a few quid!

lockdownalli · 28/06/2020 11:41

Don't know about fragrance but the Nivea Love Summer shower gel smells like holidays Smile

It's a pound in Boots.

Notredamn · 28/06/2020 13:19

Nuxe sun delicious water is a good one

Or the Sol de Janeiro range

Also Guerlain terra cotta is a lovely solar fragrance.

MisiaMisia · 28/06/2020 20:14

Yes to the Nuxe Sun Delicious Water. Their Prodigieux perfume is also suntanny and lovely, and smells like their dry oil.

Shufflebumnessie · 28/06/2020 20:21

Clarins do a perfume that smells like suntan lotion. It's either the red or blue bottle (I can't remember which one I'm afraid). I loved it specifically because the smell reminded me of being on holiday but unfortunately it made me sneeze so I had to stop wearing it.

Appuskidu · 28/06/2020 20:24

Nivea sun
Nuxe sun delicious water

Lovely lovely smells!

Lordamighty · 28/06/2020 20:35

Nuxe definitely has the smell of summer holidays.
