PRODUCT REVIEW: BEYONCE HEAT WILD ORCHID EAU DE PARFUM

Today I’d like to share with you a newly launched perfume from Beyoncé, the Heat Wild Orchid*;

What They Say:

Beyoncé Heat Wild Orchid is an enticing, mouth-watering fragrance that emits a fierce, feminine energy. Created in collaboration with Firmenich Perfumer Honorine Blanc, it both invites and intoxicates those who encounter it. At the heart of it all is the Butterfly Orchid, believed to have magical aphrodisiac qualities, which gives the scent its exotic signature. It is enveloped by an addictive mélange of fruits, florals and woods to create a captivating and memorable scent, perfect for spring.

RRP: $49 (50ml), $69 (100ml) – Available from Myer and selected pharmacies

What I Say:

Wow, Beyonce certainly seems to be pumping out the fragrances, and personally I’ve lost count of how many she has launched by now. There are a few other Beyonce Heat Fragrances including Heat, Heat Rush and Midnight Heat, and the new Heat Wild Orchid has the same bottle style and shape as the others although in a different shade. The Heat Wild Orchid has a lovely girly hot pink shade with a faded effect.

The perfume contains:

Top Notes: Pomegranate, Coconut Water, Boysenberry
Middle Notes: Butterfly Orchid, Honeysuckle, Blooming Magnolia
Bottom Notes: Blonde Woods, Skin Musks, Gilded Amber

 

The perfume has a quite sweet musky undertone, and is a lot heavier than the fresh and fruity scents that I usually pick, and while it is not a scent I would usually pick myself, it is certainly a lovely and welcome change.  You can definitely detect the musk, amber and wood notes, while the pomegranate and boysenberry gives it the sweet scent and magnolia, orchid and honeysuckle lingers as the floral scent.

As it is a little heavy, consequently I do find that it is better suited for a night out, than used a day fragrance, and although we’re now in spring, I do actually find that it would be so be so much more appropriate for autumn and winter wear.

 

The perfume has a relative good wear, lasting approx. 6-7 hours before you need to re-spray, so if you use it in the morning, you do have to spray again before going out at night, but I find that quite reasonable.

Overall this is another lovely scent from Beyoncé, and if you are like sweet, floral and musky scents, then I highly recommend that you try the new Beyoncé Heat Wild Orchid.
