Aurora Sunkissed

Aurora Sunkissed is a women's eau de parfum from Ann Summers, sold in a 100ml bottle with a 10ml purse spray in the same scent. The brand calls it infused with pheromones and describes a radiant blend of tropical citrus and exotic florals that wraps you in golden warmth. The pheromone wording is marketing and is not presented here as a proven effect. The brand publishes a full pyramid. The top is coconut cream, orange, Italian mandarin and pamplemousse. The heart is frangipani, jasmine, heliotrope and orange blossom. The base is vanilla, a woody amber ingredient it calls Ambertonic, cacao, musk, sandalwood and tonka. Together that points to a sweet, creamy beach scent. Coconut and citrus give a juicy, sunny opening, frangipani and orange blossom make a lush white floral heart, and vanilla, tonka and cacao turn the base into a soft, gourmand finish. The bottle is an amber to orange gradient with faceted glass. Wearer reviews are warm about the smell, with words such as lush, beachy and coconut vanilla orange, and several mention compliments. The common complaint is staying power: some say it lasts a few hours, others that it is gone after an hour, and one buyer found it too faint. The brand's retail listing describes it as vegan and cruelty-free, though its own product page does not say so. No perfumer is named and no launch year is given. The performance scores below follow the buyer comments and the brand's description, with a light to moderate lasting time and a soft trail.
