Maison Alhambra Athena

If you like a nice pleasant sweet scent that matures as time goes on this is a great one. In the beginning it's so captivating in the air after my wife applies a spray. There is this sweet, fruity beginning that projects well without being overbearing. It smells like cotton candy mixed with a bit of fruity goodness. As time goes on it mellows to a nice sweetness but not too sweet. At around 4 hours you're getting this nice faint sweetness and occasionally get a better smell as they walk by you (still some projection but very subdued). It's a really beautiful scent for women in this man's opinion. Even after a good 8 hours it is still there on the skin(just in time for some night-time escapades). You can't go wrong with this at the price point, and it has longevity too. My wife actually has asthma, and she can wear this without a problem! It's taken us a long time to find her things she can wear without it agitating her condition, and this is one of the few she can use and actually enjoys. I think this scent can work for women of all ages really, as it seems to be very adaptable. It smells delicious, confident, and never cheap.

I haven’t smelled the OG “Burberry Goddess” that others are saying this is inspired by but Maison Alahambra’s “Athena” definitely has the Burberry DNA yumminess, femininity, easy to wear, and familiar yet can’t quite put your finger on why. However, when I first opened this fragrance and sprayed it on a tester I was disappointed. I thought sigh, this blind buy might have been a mistake … but I refused to give up that easily and wore it today. All I can say is Love ! I adore the warmth and sweetness balanced with the spicy pepper. So delicious. It’s like a soft flannel shirt under a designer catwalk worthy jacket. A blind buy SUCCESS ❣️
