Nivea's Sun Eau De Toilette, a fragrance designed to evoke beach holidays, has been reduced to £18.41 on Amazon, down from £22.50 for a 30ml bottle. The scent, which draws on Nivea's iconic suncream, has garnered enthusiastic reviews from shoppers, including healthcare staff who find it lasts through long shifts.
Fragrance Details and Customer Reviews
The perfume opens with zesty citrus and subtle florals, settling into a warm, woody base with a sun-kissed freshness. One nurse and Amazon customer shared: "I'm a nurse and work long shifts, and patients have already remarked on how I smell very nice, and I can actually keep this in my pocket to top up quickly during the working day."
Another reviewer described it as "a lovely, light, fresh fragrance that lasts," adding that it smells exactly like sunscreen but fades into light, powdery notes with a sea salt tang. However, some found the scent too similar to Nivea body lotion, with one customer passing it on to her daughter.
Alternative Summer Fragrances
For those seeking other options, Maison Margiela's Beach Walk (£49.60 at LookFantastic) offers a blend of coconut and citrus. Sol de Janeiro's Cheirosa 62 (£39 at Space NK) provides sweeter notes of pistachio and salted caramel, inspired by Rio's beaches.
Despite mixed reviews, the Nivea Sun EDT remains popular for its affordable price and nostalgic scent, with one satisfied buyer urging: "If anyone is thinking, shall I or not? Buy it. You won't be disappointed."
