If you’re a beauty fanatic like me, you have no doubt come across the cult product, the Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse Multi-Purpose Dry Oil, and know how amazing it is and how beautiful its scent is. Well, the new Prodigueux Le Perfum, based on this oil, has now been launched. Or should I say, I believe that it was launched quite some time ago in the rest of the world, but sadly, as always, Australia seems to be lagging a bit behind.
Anyway, the Prodigueux Le Perfum Prodigieuse has the following notes;
Top notes: orange blossom, bergamot, mandarin orange and orange
Middle notes: rose, magnolia and garden
Base notes: vanilla, coconut milk and pebbles
First up, I am not a lover of coconut scented products, but luckily I cannot detect those notes at all in the fragrance. Rather I smell the fruity warmth from the orange and orange blossom, magnolia, gardenia and the bergamot, all some of my favourite scents. It supposedly also contains ‘pebbles’, but not really sure how to interpret that, or how pebbles are supposed to smell!!
I normally prefer light, fresh and fruity scents, but I am also one of those who absolutely love the Nuxe Huile, and the comforting scent that it was, and I love how the Le Parfum matches that and brings with it and stronger and more longer lasting scent.
It is an eau de parfum, and hence, of the category that it is stronger and hence has more concentrated ingredients in it, and therefore should last longer – it doesn’t quite last as long on the skin as I would have liked, but yet, much better than most eau de toilettes , and it is still vaguely there at the end of the day, so after all not too bad.
While the scent again is a lot warmer than most fragrances that I normally wear, it is still not so strong or heavy that I find that it is only suitable for night time wear, I also like using during the day, as it is still so subtle.
I have lost count of how many Huiles I have gone through by now and doubt that this perfume will be my last either – and if you too are a fan of the Huile, then I highly recommend that you give the Prodigieux a try too, you won’t be disappointed.
