We all know that I love perfumes. The more, the merrier. But I won't accept just any perfume - I like them to have a story or be bold enough to tell a story of their own.
Well, Nuxe Prodigieux Eau De Perfume does have both.
How's that?
Well, once upon a time Nuxe came out with their cult dry oil. People loved about it and went a bit crazy over it. Then they came out with the gold version.
I had both versions and I did enjoy them - it felt luxurious using them. Whenever I'd use the dry oil, I'd feel pampered. I'd get excited and feel like a princess in a summer resort, preparing to go partying with her girlfriends.
People loved both versions and I did too - so Nuxe came out with a bottle of its essence. The scent.
And Notino was so kind as to send it to me to test it out.
NUXE Prodigieux Eau De Parfum
The legendary women's perfume of Huile Prodigieuse has been encapsulated in this sensuous eau de parfum. This women's perfume is a feminine blend of sunshine and warm sand with notes of Orange Blossom, Magnolia and Vanilla.
It is true - whenever I get to smell the perfume it takes me back to my memories - of the time I used the oil and it felt luxurious. Except that now I don't have to rub the oil on my skin, I just need to spray a tiny bit of perfume on my skin.
The bottle of the perfume is classy - very typical for Nuxe. It doesn't scream "I'm modern and cool" but it's more of a safe design choice. It reminds of the Nuxe dry oil bottle, and that's what makes it appealing to more people. I, however, feel like the bottle lacks a bit. It's nothing special.
The scent on me doesn't develop much - it stays pretty close as what I can smell in the bottle. Like the summer sun that calls for mingling with people. Luxuriously floral with a hint of rose. I can smell most of the bergamot as it's pretty strong but after a couple of minutes, it becomes softer. Later there's more floral- rose and a tiny bit of vanilla.
Nuxe Prodigieux Eau de Parfum is a feminine fragrance that will make you are unforgettable wherever you go.

PROS:
+ Smells like their golden dry oil
+ has a nice, intense scent
+ reminds me of summer days
+ Medium priced (30€/30ml)
CONS:
- It doesn't last as long as I'd like it to (about 2-3 hours)
Overall:
This is the perfect perfume for everyone that is just in love with the Nuxe dry oils. They are fantastic and a great pampering product, but when you just want to feel that way, without the pampering, the perfumes are a great alternative!
I enjoy that the scent is strong right out of the bottle - it makes me want to go out, in the Sunny days. For me, it feels like this is the perfect perfume for warmer days. For those days that we're outside most of the time as it could become a bit overwhelming in closed spaces.
It's a wonderful perfume that comes with a middle pricepoint - about 30€ for 30 ml. Luckily since it's pretty intensive, those 30ml will last you a long time!
